It's because you are just poking at the metaphor without engaging with the actual idea.

The master's "tools" are methods of subjugation that are incompatible with liberation.

Saying that you are going to just use the master's killdozer to destroy the house is the same argumentative approach as liberals who see that comic of people standing on boxes to look over a fence and responding "they shouldn't be allowed to see the game without a ticket anyway".

I did the same thing starting probably around the same time as you except that did it start working for me 5 years ago and I haven't gone back to windows.

It's just what cars look like when they are designed for functionality rather than as a statement about the owner's masculinity.

So they basically said "doesn't count if there is jobs growth". As long as you can keep creating 10 precarious gig worker jobs for every 9 full time jobs that are eliminated then the economy is doing great!

There are two doors, one is labelled "Leopards that will eat your face" the other "Cat cafe" both lead into the same leopard cage.

There ought to be one of those quipy laws to the effect of "assume any acronym other than the name of an organization is a retronym until proven otherwise.

This is true and people should always be mindful of this. Additionally you should consider not just the ownership of the companies but also the infrastructure they rely on such as their rented servers, payment processors, on-site staff etc. However commercial VPNs remain a convenient compromise for many use cases. These services are probably fine for your shitposing needs but should not be relied upon for activism for instance.

Notice that despite the presence of many people who grew up with and use the metric system none are complaining about how hard it was to intuit metric units?

If you stop telling people what they should find intuitive for a moment and actually listen to people telling you about their experiences then you might find that this is not an issue.

As always the atomic unit of propaganda isn't lies, it's emphasis and indeed the amendment is correct that de-nazification is a transparent pretext and the invasion is counterproductive to denazification. What is demphasized here is why it's counterproductive; that Russia is/was funding their own Nazi divisions in Wagner, which must be ignored so that they can continue to not acknowledge the Nazi problem in Ukraine.
