I love people that demand respect but can't even give it.

Boys will be boys is something frequently said by mothers. But of course that's fact doesn't fit the "patriarchy" narrative.

Sorry I'm not sure if you're aware of this, but grass is another word for weed, and historically antimarijuana propaganda was used to oppress blacks.

Contrary opinions are harmful to discussion

Spoken like someone that's never seen a woman's restroom.

Potato patato.

I guess that makes 50% of drivers homicidal.

Safety rules are based on many factors.

*me not knowing how to bring up bad news"

Technology doesn't proliferate as quickly as you'd expect. Most people aren't on the cusp of the latest and greatest. I worked for a fucking multibilliondollar international company 2 years ago, and they still pick product, and communicate inventory adjustments with pen and paper.

People rely on the previous shit they've bought.

What kind of user experience issues are you facing on windows?

This shit confuses me. Iroh was a war general, aside from that like... what makes him masculine? Ozai is tyranical, but that's not a trait limited to men, so again I don't really get it.

I get the impression Google is trying to transition Maps into a social media platform.

Boom boom motherfucker.

Maan, you're getting wrongly downvoted to hell, and I just wanted to stop, and give you some admiration, and thanks for being able to apply critical thought, and impartiality.

There's so much cognitive dissonance in these threads.

Personally I'm more concerned about the Spiral of Silence.

The spiral of silence theory, proposed by German political scientist Elisabeth Noelle-Neumann in the 1970s, explains how public opinion is formed and how individuals may withhold expressing their views if they perceive them to be in the minority. This theory is often applied to political and social contexts, including the rise of ideologies like fascism.

In the context of fascism or any other controversial ideology, the spiral of silence suggests that when people believe their opinions are not widely supported, they tend to remain silent and refrain from expressing their views publicly. This silence, in turn, can create an illusion that the majority supports the prevailing ideology, even if it might not be the case. As a result, individuals who disagree with the ideology might feel isolated and discouraged from speaking out, contributing to the seeming growth and acceptance of the ideology.

I don't think people tolerate intolerance so much as they're scared to speak out.

Defederation is not censorship.

It literally is...

..

Like that's the whole point of defederating them..

What do you people think censorship is? 😂 🤣

People should keep complaining though! Fine, Lemmy.world isn't pro-freespeech, people should be aware so they can migrate to other instances.

I say I grew up online. I was a gamer/geek, and there was a massive gaming social presence online in the 90s.

Oh no, I understand perfectly.

You definitely didn't considering your responses.

I said "We should all do our best to comment on various posts that have no engagement to encourage others to engage."

You did not say that, you said "The more random ass comments the better", which I disagree with.

Two completely different factors. One is a genuine engagement with social media. The other is not.

If you're insulted because I implied your comments aren't genuine, I'm sorry. Genuine is a very subjective word "natural" might have been a better choice. So to reiterate, I really just prefer natural content personally. We don't need to astroturf the site.

Not going to continue this conversation when it started on braindead circumstances and is somehow still going downhill. Goodbye.

Baby I can change.. 💙
