I mean, trump was crazy to suggest injecting bleach, but maybe eating it on a side salad helps with covid?

But the whole “Have your boss or subordinate over for dinner” BS was never my thing.

TBH I truly think it was a boomer invention that died in the 80s, because nobody I know ever did anything like this willingly.

That was for a different time and era when company loyalty was a thing. When you intended to work for a company for decades, forming relationships with your boss actually meant something.

Nowadays employees are just disposable assets, so why bother forming deep bonds with your coworkers?

For a site filled with users who are more tech-savvy than the average person, I’m surprised there is such a big dichotomy in views here. Or maybe it’s just one or two really vocal individuals.

I think everyone is agreed that the site is a cesspool that deserves to die. The issue is that getting ISPs to voluntarily block sites based on advocacy is bad. As the provider of a “digital human right”, ISPs should NOT get to decide who gets their service and who doesn’t.

The EFF isn’t supporting hate groups. What they’re saying is that an ISP block is a dangerous precedent.
