If your enemies are mad at you, you're doing something right.

That would threaten the profits of the wealthy.

Sounds like discrimination based on sex. A clear violation of the Civil Rights act of 1964.

In an alternate timeline, Bernie wins the nomination and cleans up the general.

Problem is democrats are just looking out for different rich people.

We really should have the ability to block entire instances as users.

Status quo keeps on truckin' along.

Rich keep getting richer. Poor people? Well, who cares about them anyway.

Users should have the ability to block entire instances themselves.

The quality of content on reddit has deteriorated at an astounding pace. It feels like everyone is just repeating the same thing to get upvotes... and upvoting people who repeat the same thing. I'm kind of glad it exists now as a containment zone. The people who want higher quality content can move to the fediverse. Those who don't can stay right where they are.

Slight correction: he's blaming the Russian military, not Putin.

As with most things, take it from the wealthy.

If it ever seems like there's not enough to go around, blame those who have too much. We could solve these problems, but not while protecting the profits of the ruling class.

Unfortunately, it looks like russia might not be able to recover from this as easily as in the past. Thanks to globalization, it's very easy for a nation to fall behind others.

They just killed off a huge portion of their able-bodied men. They have a culture of drinking and corruption. These kinds of things don't just go away when the war is over. The impact from this should be enough to knock russia off of the global playing field for awhile. I'd wager India will take their place before long, if they haven't already.

People are moving away from oil, too. I guess their only saving grace would be access to previously inhospitable lands due to global warming.

Good joke, but I do feel kind of bad for them.

A lot of innocent people are going to suffer because oligarchs wanted more land to exploit.

It's actually aluminum foil.

This is the most rationale response. A lot of people suffering from mental illness will bog themselves down in theory and never focus on the practically of what they're saying. This is one of those examples. Just be glad people are using the platform and let it grow organically. If you're convincing users "they're doing it wrong", they're just going to give the finger and probably leave. What's great about decentralization is we, as individuals, can choose how we use it. If you want a big server? Join one. If you want a small one? Join one. It really is that simple. Try to ignore people who tell you otherwise.

Very interesting. I had no idea truth social used ActivityPub.

Don't be such a pussy. You'll let people step all over you if you're afraid to fight back.

Instead of getting crazy with megathreads, we should have the option to hide certain topics like /r/worldnews.

Zionists are Jewish nationalists.

We can all do our part. That doesn't mean the problems will be solved, but we can all do our part to implement the solution.

Discussion is important. Conservation is important. The biggest issue here isn't really the individual; it's society. Change can't happen in a vacuum. The only way society will change is if, you know, it changes. i.e. people need to be willing to sacrifice short term gains for long term benefit.

If it was sexy to do less, these problems would be solved overnight.

Fight back. Make reddit admin lives as difficult as possible.

Yeah. Keep in mind the rich people of this would would gladly rape babies if it made them more money.

Hungary does everythinf but drop objections to Sweden's NATO bid? What a shitty headline, doubled down on in the article. I have no respect for most modern "journalists."

Hey, at least you're wealthy enough to pay it!

Imagine all the subsistence farmers in africa, lol.

Glad you're staying cool 🥶

You can safely ignore him and people like him. Do what works for you. Don't get bogged down in theory. It's no substitute for experience.

When it becomes the fastest way to make rich people richer.

Lot of network errors, but it could be jerboa.

What? It's maximizing profit. Businesses are always finding new ways to cut costs while increasing revenue.

Can you provide any sources to back up what you're saying?

It sounds nice, but when you mention 'revisionist history' without providing sources I'm immediately skeptical.

What a terrible 'journalist.'

She should be ashamed of herself, putting her name on this drivel.

Great reddit humor. Totally worthy of 70 upvotes, lol.

What? The Dutch government collapsed?

They should be allowed. Whether or not they're welcomed is up to the individual.

Everyone here saying lemmy.world should do the same should just move on to lemmy.ml.

That's the glory of federation, baby!

Nah. Users need to ability to block entire instances. It's crazy this is overlooked.

Thanks. It's hard to tell what's happening with all these 'network errors' going on.

Yes, sorry.

I hope they don't. Users should have the power to decide for themselves what content they want to see.

Nah. Beehaw just has an agenda to push. I'm glad they defederate though. I want nothing to do with those Nazis.

What specifically do you like about Newsom?
