Not everyone who has some conservative opinions wants to oppress people and vote for far-right politicians.

This is exactly the same thing as cash. If you buy a major currency, like usd, euro, bitcoin, ethereum, etc, then it will be much more stable than some random currency. Would you trust a cash currency that was created by some random dude in an alleyway?

Cryptocurrency is basically like digital cash. No one can control how you spend it, or take it away. But you can’t undo transactions without tracking down the recipient, and getting them to give it back. If you don’t trust anyone, cash and crypto are the only real ways to pay for stuff.

The us has 3 energy grids: east coast, west coast, and texas. As long as don’t live in Texas, you shouldn’t have issues with electricity.

Just being conservative leaning doesn’t mean you are far right, and agree with everything the conservative party does.

It’s fine to have dating preferences. The issue is when people who are just calling anyone who is conservative leaning terrible. If you don’t agree with someone’s political ideology, you should just respectfully disagree, not call them a terrible person.

Also, calling people evil for their options is a terribly way to convince them to change, it just makes them get really defensive. If you want to convince someone to change opinion, you need to have a respectful, insightful discussion.

That has nothing to do with conservatism. Just because some people who are conservative said that, doesn’t mean that that’s a part of it. Please attack specific ideas, not groups of people.

Having an unpopular opinion doesn’t make you a troll. We can argue good/bad opinion all we want. But calling someone a troll for disagreeing with you is just plain rude.

I said it’s relatively easy. Having both trust and anonymity online is significantly harder than in real life.

However, it is easier to pick one of those and have it online then in person. In real life, total anonymity is really hard. But online you can just use tor or something.

Honestly, I think he should just get the fine and maybe some community service. It’s not like he did some terrible evil thing, he simply caused a tiny amount of damage to huge ancient structure.

Why should he lose 5 years of his life over something simple like this? Just give him a big fine that makes him regret it, and he won’t do it again.

Because in real life, it’s (relatively) easy to have both anonymity and trust. Online, it’s impossible to have both. If you want to trust that the vote numbers haven’t been tampered with, you necessarily need to know everyone who voted.

This is the fundamental problem with online voting.
