Doesn’t have to be.

No. Mostly they’re put in place to protect the domestic industry from being run out of business from cheap exports.

Not at all. It’s necessary to protect your own industry.

If Canada didn’t impose tariffs on US dairy, Canadian dairy farmers couldn’t afford to compete against US subsidized Dairy. And it’s quite important for a nation to maintain its own food production.

It’s quite incredible how much one can manage to post when it’s your full time job

alleging it “not only offers the hardware and firmware to create and play pirated games” but also provides “customers with copies of pirated Nintendo games.”

I can see a world where he can offer hardware and firmware, with claims of other intended purposes.

But the second part wherehe provides customers with pirated software is a slam dunk for nintendo.

Debian is the best defense of the incident and I couldn’t find the exact opposite way to them by now I am little bit of a political symbol that I am little more about business and I don’t want you

Carbon is no longer an element and doesn’t exist.

There are multiple words that describe numbers.

Couple, pair, and two are all words that describe the number 2.

I can’t say it better than weird al https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Gv0H-vPoDc

Unfortunately, I’ve had plenty of conversations here with people who think exactly this.

So yes, there are people who literally think this.

Not about that. They have some misguided notion that Russia stands for some imaginary form of communism that is the answer to everything.

And everything bad in the world is because of Capitalism. And also, everything west of Russia is “The west” and the entire “the west” is one entity.

It’s a .ml community. What did you expect?

All you have is trying to insult me because you think I’m white. Pathetic. I’m not American. I’m not part of your little race war. Don’t include me in it.

If you never comment, and only vote, it’s not going to doxx you. Your account can be assumed to live in a certain city. That’s it. Please tell me how that is used to dox someone. “Shit they know I live in Frome, I’m done for!”

But now you bringing up posting local pictures. Which is so far from “just voting”. That’s not your voting doxxing you. That’s you posting local pictures doxxing you.

You really didn’t think your argument through did you?

How very American of you. Me disclosing my ethnicity to you would do a lot more on the way of doxxing than any voting pattern ever could. Don’t you think?

How exactly do you imagine “never commenting, but showing votes” might dox someone?

My home adress is not on display here. Imagine if pigs had wings. Imagine living on Mars upside down. And how long is a rope?

I don’t mind because I don’t care who knows what posts and comments I vote for. I’m more than happy to stand up for what I think and why I think so.

Worst case. I get banned from .ml communities for seeing through the blatant ccp propaganda. No loss there.

As you wish, and probably a good idea;

Voting on lemmy is not private because anyone who wants to find out. Can. Be it moderators, adminis, or users on federated sites that simply show it for everyone.

You don’t. You never have. Voting already is not private

Its already not private

Are people really ok with this?

What are you gonna do about it?

No one would be forced to buy a license from Ford. IF they decide it has to be on every car, and it’s that specific system, they would have to buy it out from Ford.

But legislation like that doesn’t happen over night. It’s planned several years in advance so everyone has time to implement it.

But if that’s what you’re worries about. I suggest you vote for whomever is opposed to it. And if no one is opposed. I suggest you protest.
