The comments about seeing a doctor for depression are coming from a caring place, but the reality of being without work for a while means it's hard to afford seeing a doctor.

Chemical depression is not exactly something you can work yourself through, there are some people who claim magic mushrooms can help, but I've not seen any conclusive studies.

Fees that target the destitute are peak evil.

Tailwind uses css variables, it's really nothing more than a bunch of helper classes on top of css, it's not a replacement or anything.

After thinking about it a bit I actually think this makes sense.

Imagine a bully on the playground, in a group of other bullies who have all convinced themselves they're the victims. The bully has a baseball bat in their locker that they use to terrorize smaller children who wear blue hats because that means they're secretly out to get the bully. The bully heard one time on another playground a kid in a blue hat hit a kid with a baseball bat, just like our bully. Every time a bully beats the hell out of a random kid at recess there are short term exclamations from the all kids asking for the school to take away the weapons, even though they die out quickly, the bully takes offense at the idea of someone taking away his only tool to protect themselves from spooky blue hats kids.

He stands tall with the other bullies at recess holding little signs, we dare you to take away our baseball bats! Genuinely simultaneously afraid and empowered. They inflict actual threat of violence because they internally have conjured the idea of violence against themselves.

In this recess analogy, hall monitors would stand with the bullies, having baseball bats themselves and also being afraid of the blue hat kids.

If one day a blue hat kid brought a baseball bat to protect themselves the hall monitors and teachers all immediately crack down on them and take it away, because obviously it's not for self defense they're "clearly" out to get the hall monitors.

I don't think ideologically cops would take guns from people who think like them and ally with them, rather from "rebels" and "others" who start a genuine rebellion against a facist regime. Obviously from the perspective of the enforcement of laws against guns the police are the arm of the executive among the people, but they choose when and where to enforce laws all the time.

Ngl I love tailwind, I've been through so many different css paradigms

• separate css files: why did we ever do this, if you've ever used kendo's css stuff you'll understand how unfathomable hundreds of thousands of lines of css with complex rules is. Identifying all the things that affect a single component is the work of dozens of minutes at minimum, sometimes hours, you have to understand every nook and cranny of the css spec.
• inline styles: fine, but verbose and requires object spreading, harder to compose, theming is tough and requires discipline to be consistent in your theme conventions, almost impossible to also theme imported library components
• module.css with imported classes: my go to outside of tailwind
• scss: I actually really like scss but it exacerbates the complexity and mystery of css, great for small projects but terrible as projects bloat
• bootstrap: basically just worse tailwind, providing only components and colors

That's all I can think of right now, but tailwind is my preferred way to style a new project, I love how easy theming and style consistency is

The man has done more than plenty without making junk up. Taking this approach just will not change minds or help anyone, if reality hasn't done it fiction certainly won't.

I sympathize with the perspective. We already have so much ammunition and intermixing falsehoods just reduces the overall trustworthiness of the genuine messages that need to be disseminated.

Nobody cares.

Your past posts tell a very clear story, I recall the post you deleted, the language and ideas you present are frankly pretty messed up.

You're misattributing people's response to your actions as general philosophies.

Some judgements are purely punitive, not intended to help anyone. From a social perspective this kind of passed judgement could hopefully prevent others from doing similar things?

Nothing will help more than practice, while you're studying consider anything you pronounce with the wrong tone completely incorrect.

I personally try to use spacial memory techniques to group words with the same tone together, anything first tone I remember above me, third tone below, second tone left, fourth tone right, neutral right in the middle.

The final advice I have is to pay special attention to how native speakers pronounce tones together, for example two third tones in a row become 2,3. Most won't even be about to tell you the specifics so you'll have to learn on your own.

Good luck out there, it gets much easier with time
