"wearing leather harnesses and chaining each other up" is a bit different than just wearing a leather harness in public. But also how hard is it to just be civilized when you're in public? I don't need you to wear a suit and tie, but at least have some decency.

First line in the article "Objective reality exists." Does it? I'd say even that is a contentious statement in the realm of philosophy.

Seconded. I just don't read medium articles anymore, same goes for any site that makes me login. That ain't the internet I want so I don't support it

Maybe if Mozilla spend some of that google cash on making the browser better instead of lining the pockets of the execs and pushing for social issues they could at least retain some semblance of a user base.

What exactly does "..and for other purposes" mean? Seems unnecessary and tyrannical to me.
