Because all this god forsaken platform talks about is nazi bullshit. They’re obsessed with it more than actual nazis (and I mean the real ones. Not the “people I don’t like are nazis” kind).

This is Democracy Manifest.

As a US citizen, it’s never been hostile towards me. In fact, I would imagine most people have had little to no engagement with the federal government (outside of the routine items: taxes, etc…) Now, their state government may be a different story.

Are people really buying into this 51st state nonsense? It’s never going to happen. Orange man is a legit professional shit talker. Damn near everything he states shouldn’t be taken seriously. I’ve easily learned to ignore his words and simply focus on his actions.

I mean, come on people, it’s current year, not past year.

Finally, a fucking sense of humor. Like finding a golden ticket in a candy bar.

By “here” do you mean Lemmy? And the suns are just complaining? Because if so then yes, I agree.

Props for using a Land Before Time template. Yup yup.

Right? Fuck that guy. That’s his problem, not mine.

The first Sonic game. At the main screen, up, down, left, right, hold A, press start. You could jump to the final zone, if you were so inclined.

“Spread your cheeks, and lift your sack”

For the record, you are obviously a very negative and angry person. Which Lemmy seems to be a somewhat breeding ground for. I would encourage to spend more time offline.

It’s important to note that while several large tech companies were found not guilty of knowingly benefiting from child labor, their supply chain still benefitted from child labor; it simply couldn’t be proven they had knowledge of what was happening.

Unfortunately, based on your previous response, I do not expect you to respond in a reasonable and mature manner, and have no desire to spend anymore time with someone like yourself. This is where we sort ways. Cheers mate.

Jesus Christ.

Yeah that’s not how this works.

It’s really not, though. Using their “good product“ ends up supporting the bad person. Most people aren’t OK with that.

You made a statement, not I. Either you have evidence that most aren’t OK with that, or you don’t.

Not OP, but your smart phone may not have been assembled with child labor, but some of the components/minerals used in its construction have been tied to child labor in the past.

Most people aren’t OK with that.

What evidence can you provide to support this, or is this simply your opinion?

IT help desks HATE this one simple trick.

How does one not feel safe on a digital platform? Even if someone physically threatens you, nothing is going to happen to you. And you can block/mute people you don’t care for.

I still use it. For that which I engage, or who I engage with, it hasn’t changed for me. Almost 100% for metal bands. Tours, album releases. We have a pretty cool metal community going. People I’ve been speaking with for many years now.

Leaving a platform you don’t like, or the reasons you don’t like it, isn’t “common sense”.

Instructions unclear. Brushed teeth with CD. My gums hurt now. Tastes like a penny.

It’s too convenient. Order something Sunday night, I’ll definitely have it by Tuesday afternoon if not earlier. I always wait until I have enough items I need over $50 before I place an order anyway.
