A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

One thing to note is that the campaign to make him into a 'broken', 'damaged' individual is well underway in the media. There's nothing positive about being well-adjusted to a harmful system, and being broken by a harmful system is not a personal failing.
Is he going to be a perfectly polite, mild-mannered person in court? Maybe not. But don't let yourself be tricked into the narrative that this discredits his reasoning, or into thinking his actions are the result of some personal failing rather than a reasonable reaction to a harmful system.
