    I don’t see the terms as mutually exclusive. They’re pretty closely related.

    As for the last bit, that’s exactly what I was getting at. Denying the potential for that is what I said was what the only perceived point/reason of denying their humanity.

    That said, forgiveness is the last thing I’m willing to offer. I do believe they don’t deserve to live. They’re the quintessential group that I wouldn’t piss on em if they were on fire.

    I don’t know how to work out exactly what grounds to use for it, but it should be up there with mass murder with sentencing. I’m not even opposed to using them for medical research for things that would be unethical in any other way. The opportunity for corruption though is so high I don’t think that’s practical.

    I keep empathy for people who are misled and have been intentionally confused, but the line I see gets drawn when they have been educated and still choose to be a fascist/Nazi. If they’re fully versed in it and are still advocating for it and taking actions on behalf of it, then I lose empathy.

    The problem becomes making that determination. But while I draw a line for dehumanization there, I still support death penalty just for being one (as in taking actions that are clearly intended to support or promote the belief. Keeping a known and verified Nazi alive will never be beneficial in any way at all to anyone but other Nazis.

    The only real benefit to dehumanization at all is having a way to tell yourself that you’re not included in a species with that possibility.

    But setting a burden of evidence for and being convicted of just being a Nazi/fascist should be grounds for execution in every country.




  • Haven’t really touched Mint myself, other than moving my dad’s computer to it. I don’t think it shows the user or device name over by the clock. Unless that XP skin adds it, I don’t think that’s it.

    Given the “Overcast” bit, maybe it shows a zip code for the weather or something?

    Again, I’m not settled on a particular distro yet for sure, but most of my experience is with PopOS so far, and there’s nothing identifying there, so I’m not positive.

    I’ve installed Mint on 2 family member PCs, but I haven’t used it myself other than in passing.
