Why is everyone that likes open-source a left-wing-leaning teenager?

because they're the only ones who have the time to mess with FSF endorsed gahnooshit

maybe you should look at gnusocial instances instead of falling for mastodon's marketing. there's a ton of right-wing people there

Liberals are statistically smarter than conservatives.
The fact radical leftism has been on the internet for longer than the "alt-right" and other basement nazis is evidence leftists generally have more intimacy with technology, and they have had this intimacy for longer than right wingers.

>conservatives
Nobody in the US, at least, is really a conservative because that would imply wanting to preserve the status quo. It seems to me that everyone is a reactionary.

This is a stupid statement. All people interested in the internet are young. In the last 20 years 99% of all youth grew up a progressive. It's unfair to say any other group is stupid for simply not existing.

>Liberals are statistically smarter than conservatives.
Actually that's half true. Liberals are smarter than social conservatives, but they are less intelligent than libertarian-esque fiscal conservatives, which shows in their understanding of the Constitution and the rights that are protected under it. I'll see if I can find that article right now.

>That face when I am a patrician libertarian

>libertarian
kys fascist

>LIberalism is smarter than conservatism!
>is a conservative liberal

You mad, libtard?
>Left-libertarianism isn't a thing
>You must be socially conservative to be a libertarian and you can't support gay marriage, abortion rights and the right to firearms and free speech at the same time despite all of them having to do with personal liberties
Are you retarded?

You know left-liberalism tends to turn into libtard-socialism right? It's a toxic environment.
>I want to have the freedom to do everything and the government has to finance my well-being.
Honestly free speech is the only important thing in that list.

>Honestly free speech is the only important thing in that list.
How can you have free speech when you can't defend yourself from gov't in any sense? Also, I never said the gov't has to finance my well-being, cunt. I just said that you do have a right to do what you want to your body, without anyone else's approval. I honestly hope that abortion is sent to the private sector so at least the quality of service goes up drastically along with the availability of the service.

Honestly Tor is not much better.
Not saying a word about all the pedo's on their network, yet speaking out against some nazi website.
Free speech is no longer a right-wing thing
apparently.

>private sector
>quality of service
Be prepared to pay a shitton more for a decent job.
I don't see how killing preborn kids is in any way an advantage in your political stance.

>Private Sector
>Quality of Service
If there are a dozen alternatives in the region that perform the same service or sell the same product, selling shitty versions of that service/product is a good way to go broke very quickly.
>don't see how killing preborn kids is in any way an advantage in your political stance.
It's not my right to determine whether a woman does or doesn't want to be a mother. That's her problem. And abortion has been a thing for centuries now, look up pennyroyal tea.

That doesn't make it morally right.

We have a legal system m80, not a moral system. We have a system of laws that determine not what is objectively right or wrong, but what rights a citizen has and how the gov't can't infringe that. It's not about what's morally right or wrong, that's for the woman to decide for herself. Legally, she has the right to do it, which doesn't mean that she should do it necessarily.

Because the right-wing today throughout the world cannot put anything before their politics, conspiracies, and platforms. Contributing seriously to open-source projects takes a level of commitment to something else they can't give, so you end up with the apolitical, the centrist, and the casual leftist who slaps a sticker on his laptop and calls it a day dominating.

Right-wingers on the internet just cannot get out of their own way enough to enjoy anything that has nothing to do with politics, and when they try it has to be first and foremost about their politics first and advancing the project second (or even distant third).

Nigger Mastodons are dead and frozen. They aren't political. What the fuck are you talking about?

real funny

Honestly, while a good deal of that is true, the very same can be said about leftists who basically use tech venues and various github projects as a venue to spread their cancerous ideology instead of actually working on the goddamn project. It's like zealots have no self-control and are generally stupid on both sides of the spectrum and care more about wining the "Culture War" instead of making good tech projects.

>>The fact radical leftism has been on the internet for longer than the "alt-right" and other basement nazis
Blatantly false.

Racists have been on the internet far longer than people interested in social justice.

No really, I have no fucking idea what these mastodons are. Why don't you provide some context for the thread?

Because they have integrity and a brain, you dingus.

Also, what said

lol

aren't they compatible/the same shit?

anyway i thought right wingers hung out on reddit or voat.co

Use a search engine and search for the keywords in the OP.
"Mastodon Instances".
It's a social network.
double goes for lefties

Fascism and other forms of authoritarian conservativism are strictly for brainlets only.

Why do I get the feeling that the meaning behind pic related is somehow connected to OP's question?

>national socialists are all christcucks
Brainlet confirmed. Let me guess, you took Positive Christianity seriously.

>the very same can be said about leftists
Just those who drink their own koolaid as hard as their counterparts, sure. The difference is these doofuses are also unproductive and marginal, while the vast majority of contributors hold some mixed bag of libertarian and leftist views but like normal people can shut that part of their brain off to just focus on their code.

Anyone can program, It's often lefties pushing their agenda into their project.
If you're careless about what you believe in, you can use that. But there's people more concerned for what this can mean for the norms.
What if Microsoft went full pro-pedophilia? That's a pretty big deal, nobody would want to touch Windows ever again, you catch my drift?

There's plenty of Conservative and respectible Republican programmers/foss advocates.

We just prefer to seperate our politics from our work and passion.
I don't constantly need to state my political stances as if to aquire praise or reinforcement.

What you are looking for is a echo chamber to validify your ideals which isn't a issue for the right side.

Use GNU Social

engineers are overwhelmingly conservative, silicon valley is just so radically left it skews all of tech

Those rights come from a negotiated set of morals across time

>validify
lol

>tripfag
opinion discarded

For a long time, the left was the cool, non authoritarian dudes, and now they are.
20 years from now, probably the reverse will be true, including the right wings being the authoritarian fucks.

Not really. A lot of it had to do with the concept of a natural law which goes back to the Romans such as Cicero. John Locke, Thomas Paine and the first wave of classical liberals hammered it out to the concept of the social contract, which was ultimately derived from the fact that they thought all men had the right to Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness (or Property in John Locke's case), which differs from the concept of being a good person in that it's not the end goal that you work towards but the actual thing that all men are endowed with by birth regardless of status, at least in that framework. Rights are just an extension of the concept of natural law since rights don't tell you what you should do to be a good person, but things you are endowed with by your status as a citizen of a country.

But I'm not, user. ;^)

>Right-wing Mastodon

That would be GNU Social.
