    🎢*Say what you wanna say

    And let the words fall out

    Honestly, I wanna see you be racist*🎢

    This reminds me of the song by Johnathan Coulton, "Brave".

    A part of the chorus:

    When I torch the place And cover up my face That will make me brave

    FDNY: New York's racistest.

    To be fair, they go into a burning building and come out in blackface

    she didn't say "say racist when you want to say brave". how does someone find this funny?

    [–] [email protected] 0 points 1 week ago (1 children)

    Well, she essentially did, she's inferring "Say what you actually meanβ€œ, so say racist instead of brave.

    Not really... You seem to be the only one having an issue with it.

    I got a chuckle out of imagining browser discussions where brave was replaced with racist.

    [–] [email protected] 0 points 1 week ago

    We're having trouble integrating Night mode into Racist Browser.

    [–] [email protected] 0 points 1 week ago

    It's not funny, it's just sad. And so are you.

    [–] [email protected] 0 points 1 week ago (1 children)

    Is this about trump followers or did brave the browser do something? Since it's on Linux memes, I am guessing it's the later.

    There were some scandals about the CEO being homophobe and anti-Covid.

    [–] [email protected] 0 points 1 week ago

    I'd be more worried of they were pro-Covid

    I remember a time back when I still used twitter, thinking: "oh guess I'll follow that dude who created Javascript" then shortly after wondering: "why is there so much stupid shit showing up on my timeline lately?".

    The Racist Little Toaster.

    Don't you dare! Toaster loves all people, especially the Master... oh I see it now.

    Iron Maiden - Racist new world

    [–] [email protected] 0 points 1 week ago

    Sadly it's not even that far off the truth. Looking at Europe where more and more countries lean to the right. And the best idea democratic parties have is to copy right wing talking points in order to win back voters.. which obviously doesn't work.

    [–] [email protected] 0 points 1 week ago

    That album still bangs 24 years later.

    [–] [email protected] 0 points 1 week ago

    I've always wanted to love Iron Maiden, but I just can't. It's the lyrical delivery, like Dickinson invented the opposite of "flow".

    Obviously the band is GOAT when it comes to T-shirts.

    Brave itself is a great browser and their search engine is also quite good. Don't care much for the behind the scenes stuff.

    [–] [email protected] 0 points 1 week ago (1 children)

    I read the meme & I was like...what the hell's wrong with Brave?? Good product IIRC.

    I don't use it anymore, only because it's too niche (and isn't it still basically Chrome, reskinned?). We can't make enemies of every fucking browser because of every stupid little thing.

    I'm now on Mozilla Firefox, partially because of this community & its push, and now I'm hearing "Mozilla bad, or will be bad, because advertisements". 🀨🀨🀨🀨🀨🀨 Okay?? So who's fucking good? Is anyone good? Can someone, somewhere, create a good & secure browser without issues?

    [–] [email protected] 0 points 1 week ago (1 children)

    You can try its fork like librewolf on dekstop and mull on android

    [–] [email protected] 0 points 1 week ago (1 children)

    I just might, I mean good grief, we need something good that lasts.

    [–] [email protected] 0 points 1 week ago (1 children)

    Yeah librewolf is a Firefox fork that is run by people that aren't Weekend at Bernie-ing Mozilla's corpse.

    [–] [email protected] 0 points 1 week ago

    What is the expiry date on using Weekend at Bernies as a cultural reference point?

    It's Chromium and a dystopian cryptocurrency sales pitch of an internet browsing experience. It's fast, but it's also inherently Spyware.

    [–] [email protected] 0 points 1 week ago (3 children)

    Look at the product not the creator. Oh wait the product is also ass

    [–] [email protected] 0 points 1 week ago (1 children)

    Braves adblock is the only technology I know of that gets through the EFF fingerprinting test while still providing a usable experience.

    Not worth all the ads and crypto shenanigans though

    [–] [email protected] 0 points 1 week ago

    To be fair tests will always be biased. Also both Librewolf and Mull pass for me.

    [–] [email protected] 0 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

    Every single post about ad blockers will be someone talking about how "good" Brave is. Drives me crazy.

    [–] [email protected] 0 points 1 week ago

    It is fairly popular these days which gives me hope. The fact that people are willing to give up Chrome is a very good sign.

    Honestly the custom Firefox browsers are the best option but they are less well known and harder to use and understand. The great part about Brave is that it just works.

    My friends browser πŸ’€

    until "racist" is no longer the go-to word that the weakminded autoload to explain lifes puzzles, we will always be fighting each other. and downvoted by 17 racist autoloaders. point proven

    [–] [email protected] 0 points 1 week ago (1 children)

    Your comment is so vague and without substance, but you seem to imply that racism doesn't exist, which is hilarious.

    where linux?

    [–] [email protected] 0 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

    i don't get what's going on in this comment section - are we going to be mad at some code for what a person says on social media?

    i tried running Firefox on my 2018 budget phone and every https handshake takes 5 awkward seconds and it's more like 0.5 seconds on brave. it's open source, built in dark mode, and runs well for me. it's not even a gut feeling thing, on Android this is objectively beating the competition within the privacy conscious space.

    i believe COVID is as natural and genuine as the historically evident spanish flu - but even if someone exists who is too stupid to get it, I'm happily enjoying the fact that he has nothing to do with me

    I'm sorry, I'm of the mind of not endorsing with my use, the products of those who want me dead.

    [–] [email protected] 0 points 1 week ago

    I might suggest getting off the internet and finding a completely self-sufficient lifestyle then. I guarantee you there are people that you would disagree with in person, in every supply chain.

    [–] [email protected] 0 points 1 week ago

    the same freedom that affords him the ability to be a dumbass in public affords you the freedom to not be dead.

    though i do get the worries that come with the extremism spreading out.

    most social media anger is trying to fix problems that aren't problems. meanwhile politicians get away not pivoting towards UBI. then we get more nationalists, and then we get more social media shitstorms. 😬 anyways, enjoy the ride everyone

    [–] [email protected] 0 points 1 week ago

    Allow me to expand my point. If you are using a computing device of any type, you are using the fruits of the labor of IBM, Xerox, and AT&t from the 1950s and 1960s. That means, by your argument, you are glorifying racism, homophobia, sexual assault and xenophobia among other things. You should definitely get off the internet.

    [–] [email protected] 0 points 1 week ago

    Better stop buying anything made in China then, what with the slavery and human rights abuses. And you should stop using oil and gas products as well because climate change kills. Good luck with that.

    Imagine someone so lost and confused as to one’s beliefs that they go on a vendetta and post to the wrong forum.
