A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I was frustrated that Canadian news outlets were downplaying who he really was. They're also saying people who are celebrating his death should be ashamed.
He contributed to death, ignorance, misinfo, and leading youth into the alt right pipeline. People should be able to participate in politics without risk of their life.
People should also participate in good faith and shouldn't be allowed to lie or steal. In a just system, these people would be held accountable by the courts. People also should not be allowed to advocate for things that directly or indirectly cause hatred, racism, discrimination, etc.
I don't feel ashamed for feeling okay with this situation. At most, I feel bad for his kids, but I felt bad for them regardless of this situation.
Idk man. It's dumb
Same here in Australia.
And what really gets to me is that he was not only a cunt. He was a completely irrelevant cunt to Australia. Why the fuck the media here is eulogising him is just plain fucking stupid. I think there’s still too many Australian journalists clinging to their blue ticks on mecha-hitler world, thinking they are swimming against the toxicity and not realising it’s sinking in, as it was meant to.
