1. LOL. I did not reply you privately deliberately. Reply to the wrong
person.

I use abortion clinics to explain to you what is historical materialism.
Human history never changes because of certain individuals (like Donald
Trump) did something great. That is called history of great man. History
changes because there are material changes beneath it.

The fact is that rising rate of violence against abortion clinics are the
fundemental reason why Roe V Wade is overturned. If this keeps happening,
it would finally reach a point abortions will be banned nationwide.
Probably spread to other nations as well in the future. From historical
perspective, abortion will be banned because more and more abortions
clinics are bombed.

2. Same thing here: I do not see how WG21 is going to change when it is
filled with big corporations.
You could say i am unhinged. TBH, i do not care at all. However, I do not
think i am the first one who disagrees with iostream and format string
fundamentally. But they had been long historically ignored.

What about breaking ABIs? Oh, large companies have 40 years old binary that
loses source code that "cannot break". Why should I care about their
projects? See only kill those companies would fix the problem.

What about giving up EBCDIC? Or at least making the situation better? Oh
no. WG21 does nothing.

Oh, we also have new format string advocators in WG21, hmhm. Of course they
are going to push propaganda to advocate format string which are
historically vulnerablities. "These big companies love format string lol
because they want their programmers to write cheap and buggy code." Then
went there talking shit like: C++ is dangerous and only terroists use it
because it helps CCP violates human rights.
