That’s actually far less than I expected.

I mean, you are aware these texts aren’t real right

Literally don’t know who that is or why suggesting her as pope is funny

A less specific demographic, which is a little ironic when referring to reddit. But lemmy is even more a subset of a subset of a subset of people than reddit is, and it gets a bit old at times.

Politics everywhere, and most of it is just circlejerking over something trump is doing and everyone agreeing how terrible he / his supporters / his handlers / the broligarchs are. There isn’t much discourse to be had when everyone on here already agrees, and I don’t mean I miss right wing voices. Just that I don’t need to talk about politics with people who think virtually exactly the same as me about these things. And I’m also not an american.

Then there is an annoying flood of trans content, which is great that it has its place here, but for the most part doesn’t interest me beyond a general sentiment of support for people to live their life how they wish. I want more diversity in my feed.

Not in necessarily in opinions but in topics

What are you on about man. Maybe lay off for a second and reread the whole thread. You are not even talking to the same person here

Chief, you misinterpreted an innocuous question (what you were doing when you got way too high until it was over) and from there went on some sort of snarky and hostile comment spree. Nobody here attacked you or tried to “bully” you lmao

Why are you like this?

Yeah, ever since the Americans got their seat at the council of fucking they have been going off the rails. Coincidence? I think not.

E: boo, you changed it

And that is bad why…?

Intellectual property, the sheer concept that an idea, or color, or shape can be owned at all is absurd if you really think about it. There is certainly room for a fair compromise of appropriate and proportional compensation for the actual inventors or creators of something, but our current system of intellectual property and patents is silly and hostile to human nature.

Are you ok

Personally I’d want a partner more than a 20something fuckservant as well, but I can definitely see the appeal for horny old dudes with too much money. That also somewhat ignorantly precludes the possibility that the young woman has more to offer than her body though, which I’d think is quite likely in reality.

You’re old, single, horny and financially solvent. Why would you not want a 20 year old live in maid / fucktoy? You have no fucks left to give what anyone thinks, the girl is okay with it, so why not enjoy your last years? Transactional relationships are common all around the world.

“No, my son can’t come out and play today. He hasn’t finished his lunch transfats for the third day in a row and is grounded until he learns to appreciate the empty carbs I work hard to put on the table.”

It was meant as a sincere question with a cynical undertone. Dumping “unwanteds” is obviously horrible, but I understood part of the definition of concentration camp to be a place where people of disrepute with the authoritarians in power are interred for various hideous purposes. Not a place where people are deported to, and are then free to leave (except in the direction they were just brought from).

I mean, technically, they aren’t concentration camps because as far as I understand those are just places to dump the caught and deported unwanted people. They aren’t being kept there forcefully, no?

Basically the first concerted spam/phishing attempt hitting lemmy, so this most certainly non existent lady is now a meme.

Certainly true, but then it is more an issue of what opinions they are fed than them not being a direct part of the conversations, no?

Fair, but ultimately also an excuse. He is the batman, he could beat the shit ouf of the entire political establishment and the corrupt big money paying them. Who else if not he, with his super advanced gadgets and tech? He could overcome the security systems and personnel those people employ better than anyone else in Gotham.

I dont like working out either

Perhaps this is a little pretentious but i don’t consider the cattle type of users, who will go where the most people are, like the most popular content, and generally follow along with the digital mainstream without much thought or personal agenda, valuable additions to online conversations. As far as I’m concerned they can stay wherever they are and if needed be fed some downstream summary of what the actual people talk about elsewhere.
