Quite irrelevant here.
Post is about someone going to home depot. most people are not reading the privacy policy for the shops they go to. I do. I make others aware.
Not sure how a comment about the store the post is about isnt relevant.
Post is SO NOT about going to home depot. Not even close. The exact same post would have achieved the same goal with any other name. Have you even glanced at the picture?
its about ea nasir the ancient scam artist of copper.
title says home depot. relevant. if they had said hardware store, then you would be correct there would be no reason to have posted the comment.
Because nobody cares that people can tell what store they went to for some DIY supplies, and the OP isn't even lauding the place.
We get it, it's your special interest. It ain't ours.
yeah. okay. I'm sure your world view is absolutely the standard and no one ever disagrees with you.
If it bothers you so much, use the fucking built in filters. Block me. Do not make it my problem that you are choosing to ignore all of the safeguards put in place by the developers.
You're making it my problem to block every one of the thousands of people that post off-topic on their grievances in every light hearted thread, so no. I am going to make it your problem, because you're being annoying and socially inept. I'm sorry that that's not nice to hear, but I don't say it to be cruel, only in the hopes of achieving a better outcome for everyone.
Restricting yourself to posting about privacy and politics in threads that are relevant is not a big ask.
The only person being socially inept is the Non-American trying to tell an American that they should not share information of American oppressors with other Americans. The Non-American who went out of their way to call out and use a term that is commonly associated with the neuro-divergent for no reason other than to get a dig in, and make assumptions based on stereotyping.
Sorry buddy, I'm not changing. You are privileged. You are the "White Moderate" that Martin Luther King Jr wrote about in his letter in Birmingham Jail. What you see as an inconvience, others see as life saving information. Again, don't want to see it? You have the tools to fix it. Use them. You can complain about seeing activism after activism is no longer needed.
You misspelt slacktivism.
America sneezes and the whole world catches a cold - not just because you blow up international trade, but because you see your grievances as the most important thing, so that they are relevant in every situation, so we've all got to suffer through your self-absorption.
Do the internet equivalent of wearing a face mask.
I love punching down and downplaying the importance of sharing information.
I will now be using those tools I was talking about. I dont need a privileged baby toddler crying to me about how hard it is to see that someone is trying to spread information that is genuinely useful.
Good job not denying being straight up ablest btw.
Yeah, "sharing information" on irrelevant Lemmy threads is going to make so much difference. You're so brave.
I don't waste time denying baseless accusations.
I care.
it's the same company, is it not?
seems pretty fucking relevant if so
You didn't even give a single glance at the picture, did you?
sure did. content of the photo is irrelevant to the comment being made about the content in the title
