Diva (she/her)

they have managed to set a trend for filling the night sky with shitty little low orbit satellites chewing up the ozone layer

Just based off how comfortable Americans are, no.

Yeah this had been my observation too

They tend to actually remove comments for being chauvinist and for some reason that seems to rub certain people the wrong way.

If you’re planning on leaving I won’t miss you passive aggressively using only neutral pronouns for me or calling me insane.

You can totally have centrist extremists

So accusing left wingers of being right wing is okay as far as you’re concerned if it’s about an election

Pointing out that from a left wing perspective, Biden and the Democrats are doing bad things and their supporters are right wing: wrong, not descriptive, belongs in a tankie shit hole.

K

Being full of anticommunists who call anyone left of Biden a tankie makes an instance right wing in my eyes at least

I wouldn’t want anyone going down an extremist pipeline on either side of the political spectrum.

This isn’t a binary thing, there’s plenty of centrist extremists and echo chambers for them

I agree with you that this conflict needs a resolution, it’s possible lemmy.ml has done some things wrong, that’s why I support a two state solution that guarantees lemmy.mls security.

Where do the croc charms go? smh

Oh you’re the one with the hyperfixation on hexbear.

As you were officer. 🫡

everyone who politically disagrees with me is either not human or a “useful idiot”

Hopefully some day we can find the root of this toxic division haunting lemmy 🙏

Sure, it was toxic in other ways, but Lemmy in 2024 is basically 2004 Slashdot - just replace Bush with Trump

Lmao I was there, can confirm

The bickering about software platforms is unchanged and people will jump down your throat for voicing an independent thought.

I remember liberals getting just as mad for naysaying Kerry as they do Biden now.

The problem is that, with a lot of causes like feminism, it’s kind of mushy. It isn’t straightforward, it is loud, it is a winding path. … I just feel like just simply supporting the rights of women isn’t enough with it and that there’s something more.

This is why intersections are important, there are many interconnected struggles under capitalism which all run into common opposition along misogynistic/classist/racist lines and often with numerous overlaps.

Having an approach which does not include the systemic forces at play from more angles than just one, can lead you to blind spots which cause friction with other people.

I don’t think going out of my way to stand somewhere waving a sign for hours is what I think a good way to spend time with. I believe we should protest smarter by fighting with facts and being more focused than just allowing intrusive and irrelevant directives take hold of certain causes.

Demonstrations are only useful if they’re actually demonstrating something. If there’s nothing actually threatening why should anyone take your demonstration seriously? This doesn’t mean you need to be actually getting people in danger, but shit like stopping traffic and being disruptive makes a point where holding signs does not.

I’d set it up as a death match where they are all dropped into different parts of an island and have to survive with what they can find

Sounds like you’re the one with the cult-like devotion, but sure whatever you say officer

They clearly revel in “dunking on libs” by chain downvoting and harassing people when they say things that the hexbear hive mind disagrees with. And yet always claim innocence when their obvious brigading is called out, as you are currently doing.

They don’t even have down votes turned on, unless you’re saying that their users are going out of their way to make alt accounts specifically to downvote.

This looks like projection as you are the one who seems to think that down votes are some shield against wrong think and they don’t seem to care about them at all.

“Hello I would like to mentally police myself for free so that people who want me dead might think I’m one of the good ones”

That’s pretty much where I see the ending for a lot of this, there’s a wide variety of useful applications, but hard to capitalize on especially for things that are self contained and not phoning home to some server you need to maintain access to for billing purposes

Pretty sure Cisco was too, the’re supplying hardware to the bubble. I think you misunderstood my point- I don’t think AI is going to be profitable in the long term, it’s probably very profitable to sell the hardware for that to people with investor money- their stock price reflects that.
