No not really. People keep asking them why they dont support certain hardware, and they need to keep explaining why they dont support the hardware. They don't go out of their way to demonize those projects. Their project is aimed at providing the highest level of security and privacy. They can't help that Fairphone's hardware does not adhere to their hardware requirements in order to attain that security and privacy.

GrapheneOS's goal is not to deliver the most broad amount of support for as many phones as possible, its goal is to obtain the highest levels of security. For broad support there is /e/os for instance. On the other hand, /e/os is not the most secure OS. Those are just the facts. Every OS has its own use cases.

I took a better look at it. I understand that the definition of fascism is an academic question that has been discussed about a lot. However, that also means you shouldn't just trust one person that researched it. The text explicitly states that (paraphrasing) "it should be looked at from the left", which is just a confession of the definition being pretty biased. Therefor, the claim in the text about (paraphrasing) "his definition becoming the new consensus" is pretty flawed. It is true the word is getting used more and more like this by leftists, but that doesn't make it a consensus.

In one paragraph he says (paraphrasing) "the specific flavor is not important, the inherent ideology is ultranationalism with wanting to go back to a mythological past".

I reject this. What he is describing is literally just ultranationalism/ethno-nationalism. That's literally how he describes it himself. That's just like me saying "yeah stalinism in today's day and age is very impractical and you won't see it like this today, so in order to be able to use the term, we need to look at it broader, and at it's core, their ideology is ultra-socialist with the focus on rapid industrialization. Therefor, we should call social-democracts stalinists, because they share the same core ideology.

Wtf? If you read that with some critical thinking you'll understand why his definition is not the concensus at all.

You can't just pick and choose definitions of a word. When you use a word, the most common definition of it is how you will be understood (depending on context). Otherwise I could say that poop is worth a lot and then say that poop means gold.

Moreover, sadly, many people do not even have the slightest idea of what certain ideologies are called. They don't get further than "fascism bad nazi bad communism bad" without being able to make a distinction. This allows for easy manipulation of the masses by defaming anything you don't like as one of these things. That's all it is.

If you use a word that you don't entirely understand, research the word, and if necessary, explain how you understand the word. Allows for good-fath discussions. Do not misrepresent it.

I already mentioned multiple times that the assumption that I'm christian is presumptuous.

you remember that if you don't do what we say, you're gonna be tortured even after death.

Not at all what it is portraying. I don't even understand how you get to that conclusion.

It were the priests that didn't believe Jesus was telling the truth that killed him. Humanity killed him. Not God.

Nice assumption of me being Christian.

The cross symbolizes the sacrifice. Nobody celebrates his death, it is only the fact that he saved humanity with his sacrifice that gets celebrated, and the cross symbolizes this sacrifice.

The cross is a constant reminder of what Jesus went through to save you. The only feeling it is meant to evoke is thankfulness to Jesus and a reminder of how much suffering he saved you from.

I'm just trying to explain what christians believe, because it is getting misrepresented here, causing distorted views on christianity.
