No, I'm not! What even is an argument? Who decides that?

I'll write it down as if I was talking to a 6 year old, because it sounds like your mental development might have stopped there.
Try to follow these 3 steps, OK?
-
Think of the artist: Imagine a person who makes something, like a painting or a song. This person is called an artist.
-
See the Art: The artist makes something beautiful, like a colorful picture or a fun song. This is called their art.
-
Two Different Things: The artist and their art are two separate things. Just because someone made a painting, it doesn't mean everything about that person is good or bad.
Did that help you understand? Or are these steps confusing? Do you see that your comment was extremely dumb?
It's becoming very difficult to live if you can't seperate a person from their work.
Compared to a reasonable, empathic person
Acutally I think you made a big error in this analysis
I think the majority of voters support this behaviour. Most people would gladly give away their privacy for the promise that the bad other (be it racial, economical, religious, ... whomever you want to scapegoat) will be hurt, too.
there's not a huge amount of tech coming out of there.
That's opportunity! Glass halve full :) When it comes to renting infrastructure, there's plenty of options in Latam and Asia. I haven't looked at Africa to be honest.
Asia - they're definitely not any better
Japan, Taiwan, S. Korea are in asia too. It's not just China and Vietnam.
significant problems
The lack of free speech laws in EU is also a very big problem. EU cares very little for the individual's rights.
Latam, asia, africa?
Better to have lived a short life outside an office than to live to be a 100 spending 45 years in an office.
That's a choice you can still make today. What's keeping you from doing so?
It's a bad, hurtful joke, fyi
Given that context, can you see how the people who want to stop putting holes in the boat would get frustrated with the people putting holes in the boat
Yes. Can you see how starting to namecall like a toddler is a bad plan? Now you destroy all possibility of cooperation, and the boat is still sinking. It makes things worse!
would be baffled by someone more concerned about the descriptive pejorative than they are by the other guys putting holes in the boats?
Let's say a boat is sinking. There's people making holes and there's toddlers screaming and shouting and kicking everyone in sight. Can you see how a reasonable person would see both as an annoying hinderance that make things worse, not better? How one group telling they don't like the other group is useless and frustrating childish behaviour - the boat is sinking, remember?
Your whole plan is to show them how things would be better
Yes. Work on technology and policy others will want to copy for their own benefit. It's the only thing that's going to work.
The growth in solar power production, for example, isn't because it's green. It's because it's a cheaper way of producing power in many situations. That's all that is.
The current methodology of bullying is not working, even doing the reverse. Emissions are currently at an all time high, and rising. Your plan is to keep doing that same thing, antagonize the majority of the world, and expect a different outcome?
Almost looks like a collage. I like it! Cool picture!
