You don’t get to claim you care about trans kids while voting for a government that supports Israeli Hitler.
Says who? Did your way result in less genocide, or more?
democrats will try to stand behind marginalized communities as though we can math our way into ignoring US imperialism and murder
Who said anything about ignoring? It’s harm reduction. The lesser of two evils is still evil. But you know what? It’s less evil. If I have to pick between two dead Palestinians and a dead trans kid, or two dead Palestinians, I’ll pick the option with less dead kids 100% of the time.
Saying that we can’t do something to help people because it’s accepting something bad is the same argument conservatives use to argue against needle exchange programs or sex ed. No one should be using heroin, so we shouldn’t try to keep them from getting HIV.
This is what’s called having a semblance of moral principles.
I’m sure the children who were bombed are deeply appreciative of your intact principles.
Here’s an analogy: If I offer you a glass of lemonade with 50% urine and another glass with 10% urine, are you happy to drink the latter because of the difference?
Are you going to choose to drink the first because the situation is bullshit?
The suggestion that we should continue voting for the lesser evil given this trajectory fits the definition of insanity.
And leaning into it or doing nothing is just suicidal.




That actually makes security much, much worse. It’s training users to make authenticating part of their continuous routine, so when a random site that looks like the login page asks for their password you’re inclined to simply proceed, since diligence has an excessively big time cost.
Same goes for mfa. If validating every request, particularly if you use a service with push based mfa, takes too much effort then people just fulfill the request.
The ideal is that you only authenticate when it’s actually important, as an exceptional circumstance that makes the user pause and make sure things are good. Changing the bank account your pay gets sent to warrants an authentication.
“You’ve been using email for 20 minutes” doesn’t.
Realistically your session should probably be about the length of a workday with a little buffer for people who work a little longer to not end up with 99% of a session sitting open on their laptop. 9-10 hours should be fine.
You want the machine credentials that a laptop uses to talk to the mail server, or the hr software uses to talk to the doobips to have short credentials so if someone hacks the mail server they have a short window to use them, but that doesn’t impact user authentication requirements.
