I wouldn't believe a single #Word of the #Telegram #TOS. At any given #Time of the #Day, Telegram can look into private #Chats and see, what People are #sharing or #discussing, so it is not private at all. #Everybody who claims this, is a fucking #Liar. You must be a complete #Idiot, to share any #illegal #Stuff over Telegram. Period. I think #France will unveil soon the Reasons for their Arrest of #PavelDurov.

Are the #Democrats #barely #discussing #LGBTQ+ #issues #onpurpose?

There’s been almost no mention of LGBTQ people during the Democratic National Convention.

I am interested in #hamradio, although I don't have a license yet, but plan to get one (hopefully by the end of this year?)
This is also one of the reasons I joined @dk3jf 's instance because his profile is one of the first ones I discovered doing nerdy electronics stuff that I can learn from :)

I would love to find more people doing basic electronics and describing what they are doing, people writing #threats about their #projects and #discussing questions about it!

#Florida #teachers can #discuss #LGBTQ #topics under '#DontSayGay' #law, #settlement says.

Under the #terms of the #settlement, the #Florida #BoardofEducation will send #instructions to every #school district saying the #Florida #law doesn't #prohibit #discussing #LGBTQ+ #people, nor prevent #antibullying #rules on the basis of #sexualorientation and #genderidentity or #disallow #GayStraightAlliance #groups.

It's nice to discuss with people about #politics, especially if they have a contrary opinion. Though oftentimes it just leads to irrational arguments and beliefs, which is pretty sad... #discussion #discussing

#Maybe if we can get people out from the #trap of left-vs-right, which #eliminates whole #swathes of #thinking from the #political #landscape, and amplifies #insignificant differences between our current parties into us-vs-them thinking, they can start thinking about real #differences, and real #similarities, between political views.

Maybe we can start #discussing them without #hating each other.

Maybe we can make some #progress, and the #majority end up with a party to #represent them.

@SarraceniaWilds @AmericanFietser I agree there are people on #mastodon that have real trouble with #listening, truly #discussing stuff and #respecting others and their #opinions...

However, I would say that goes for any "social" platform.

#twitter #bluesky #facebook #linkedin (need I go on?)

As long as people (left, right or whatever side you want to call it) do not wish to truly listen and use actual arguments, it will never be a discussion... just people shouting opinions at each other.
