Depends on the grenade. Lotta people who talk about “grenade no work like that” are talking about a specific type of grenade they are familiar with.

Some grenades have very easy pins to pull, some grenades start the fuse as soon as the the pin is pulled, some require the spoon be depressed for the pin to be pulled.

Reality is, there are many types of grenades that work in different ways.

It’s an attempt to create a unified narrative that can tie together a number of disparate groups. Groups who have no chance of winning elections or joining another coalition. Groups whose goals and ambitions are so antithetical to public interest that they can never actually say what they want out loud.

The reason this document is so bizarre and unhinged is because it’s trying to speak the language of people who have to speak in a series of dog whistles to prevent being disregarded out of hand.

It’s a rallying cry to all those who are upset when they get held accountable for saying what they actually think.

See, as a terminal foxhole player, this means something very different to me.

As I understand it, any browser on iPhone has to be built on WebKit, so even if you install fire fox or chrome, it’s running on a totally different web engine than the desktop version. Making them more safari re-skins in the same way that stuff like brave or opera are just chrome reskins.

some people stick with safari, but no one is replacing chrome, fire fox, or edge with safari. People choose to replace edge because it is obtrusive and annoying to use, safari isn’t.

In that context, safari is not a competitor for Firefox in the same way chrome is. It’s comparing apples to oranges.

I don’t think safari is even remotely comparable given that it’s a default browser on macs.

He absolutely talked about the sites numbers being artificially high due to bots when he was buying it, even tried to use it to get out of the legal obligation to buy it.

We’ve also seen his gutting of the moderation system cause a huge influx of bots and bot interactions, not to mention other stuff that advertisers don’t want their ads to be next to.

Like he really has played him self and is having a temper tantrum at having to face the consequences of his own actions.

It’s even worse than that.

It’s like he bought another kids lemonade stand while claiming the other kid was pissing in the jug to make it look like they had more.

Then pissing in the jug in full view of everyone else to make it look like he had more.

And then tried to sue passers by for not buying his piss filled lemonade.

Piss being bots and spam accounts, and the passers buy being advertisers who want actual engagement from users.

There are plenty of browsers built on Gecko that aren’t fire fox. So if you don’t trust Mozilla to build your browser, and don’t want your ad blocker bricked by Google, you have options.
