You're welcome to have an opinion on many things, Pepsi vs Coke, Ford vs Chevy and I literally don't care.

You can even be wrong or uninformed about things. You don't need to know the difference between right and left hand twill

But my rights are NOT UP FOR DISCUSSION.

@Microsoft @Office

[Disco Staff Engineer 🏴 @mapM_]

@Outlook You have the worst deliverability remediation process of any company I have ever dealt with. Every other time I have needed to take myself off of a blocklist, it has been straightforward. Dealing with https://t.co/yCTv43ib23 deliverability support has been a nightmare.

[Disco Staff Engineer 🏴 @mapM_]

One thing is for certain. I would never use an outlook or office365 address for anything where I was worried about external actors actually being able to send me email. This is the 2nd time I have had to deal with this, and it was an interminable nightmare the 1st time also.

It would really be nice if there were some way to, I don't know, test that you comply with Microsoft's policies rather than blindly playing the "guess what the tech is reading off of their script" game.

@JordanSchachtel Block himself have a speech about big tent libertarianism and about how war was the one issue that shouldn't be brought under the tent.

The mises institute is the one being consistent here and you're the one with the blind spot.

@gummibear737 We're willing to negotiate as soon as they offer something. Silencers, SBRs, SBSs and AOWs off the registry. Re-open the Automatic registry. Repeal the NFA completely. Fund the ATF for federal rights restoration. Create a streamlined process to get rights back.

The whole point of a right to own weapons is that I don't need your agreement. Stay mad.

[Stephen Dedalus 🇺🇦🇦🇺🇮🇪 @thecure4allills]

@checkmatestate @JDCocchiarella Interesting argument but it’s bollocks. I wouldn’t agree to you having grenades just because you spend your weekends caressing grenades and reading grenade magazines. You fancying guns doesn’t give you license. And the majority of Americans support gun control…

They're trying to play amendment violation yahtzee. They could have done better by requiring you to let a police officer spend a night in your home to judge your character.

[The Associated Press @AP]

New York would require people applying for a handgun license to turn over a list of their social media accounts so officials could verify their “character and conduct” under a bill being considered Friday by the state Legislature. https://t.co/7rDdbV9zNU

It would continue to be a moral outrage even if it were an excellent product.

[Jeffrey A Tucker @jeffreytucker]

A bad product is a bummer. A bad product you are force to consume is appalling. A bad product that is forcibly injected into your arm as a condition of keeping a job is a moral outrage.

This is from the party that's supposed to care about the poor. I guess as long as the poor don't get uppity and start carrying guns.

[Disco Staff Engineer 🏴 @mapM_]

All this talk of the subway being a "sensitive place" is pissing me off. If you're rich enough to take a taxi everywhere, or you can afford a car in NYC, you can carry, but if you're poor enough to have to take the subway then screw you?

[Disco Staff Engineer 🏴 @mapM_]

No, the conversation would be the same: Fuck Around and Find Out.

[gleag @gleagal]

@Techno_Fog Vaccines do not stop you from contracting or spreading covid. All it does is keep you from dying. Calling this a “pandemic of the unvaccinated” is just silly. If the vaccine stopped the spread there would be a much different conversation to be had.

[Disco Staff Engineer 🏴 @mapM_]

If you were paying attention, the scapegoating started as soon as it rolled out. I've spent all summer finding new employment to avoid my current 2-tiered employer.

[Techno Fog @Techno_Fog]

Today, the unvaccinated became the scapegoats.

[Disco Staff Engineer 🏴 @mapM_]

Or in Gitmo, which would save on fuel.

[John Osterhoudt @OsterhoudtJohn]

It's time to deport Leana Wen to Australia where she belongs.

[Disco Staff Engineer 🏴 @mapM_]

@JaneBond462 @LibertyJen You can do it. Today is my last day at my current employer. I could have remained an employed working remotely as Pariah while everyone else was flown into the office.

As soon as the policy was emailed out, I started looking for new work. I won't stand for a 2-tiered society.

In case you need a reminder that @mises was against this from the very beginning.
