  • And we still have swathes of Lemmy screaming that we need to call the Democrats and that they aren't useless as a party and that calls and emails are a valid and productive method of getting favorable action done.

    And then the DNC have a private meeting to tell all the leaders of the leftist holding pens to get a better leash.

  • Who is we? Lots of places do communal bath houses. Japan has an entire industry around it. Mass transit is also highly prevalent.

    Yes there will always be some level of individual desire to do things or need in some cases but communal projects are useful and common I don't get the dismissal of that for energy creation something we long ago figured out was better to be done at scale and distributed after.

    This is neoliberalism and treating it like it's the only way to exist. It's a failure of consideration or imagination. Either way your take is not right for that.

  • Yeah this does prove a failing point for the fediverse that is an important part of larger adoption. This still mostly exists in large part by communal effort even if the community doesn't appreciate it or recognize it

  • No we are just out of resources to scrape. Everyone already owns them and the rich don't openly fight the rich.

    The new resources are the minutes of the workers lives while they are not working. Our thoughts on brands and policy. The new children that can be workers for life. And occasionally any new area that might not already have a drill and mine in it currently they might be able to make one work in like Greenland or the ocean floors.

    There is just a new fight among those that already have everything for whatever more they can get and there simply isn't much left to go around.
    A bunch of them believe the end is coming for them or for all of us. This is just about getting the highest score before it comes.

  • My family has some cops. My great uncle brags about robbing a house party cause he knew the kids wouldn't be able to stand up to him and his buddies without parents while drunk.

    My grandfather brags about drunk driving in his squad car and all the brown people he put under and how he would feed them to the crocs if he was able.

    Both wife abusers.

    To much sociopathy among people and not enough social shame.

  • CPS are basically useless or power tripping with no in-between. They got called on my incubator 3 times with the first being for beating my adopted brother so hard with. 2x4 it broke his skull around his eye socket.

    We were told we had a great mother and shouldn't be such a hassle for her to deal with after being in the house for 5 minutes. The incubator said that she would make sure we died before any of us were taken away from her.

    Adults are mostly people pretending to be or see what they want to feel good about themselves, and thinking they are justified in doing whatever they want because they have simply existed longer. Few even consider sonder, less their own chance of being the monster.

  • People claim they have no interesting stories and then will tell me tales of happy childhoods where they had parents support and love them and they went on road trips and had the joy of just being a child and I can't help but think of that fantasy world they got to live for all those years as something beautiful and beyond what human experience for most of our history was even capable of.

    People toss off the casual miracles cause they lack shine but having a parent that didn't rape and abuse is quite an interesting story to me.

    I'm sorry, be strong and outlive the fuckers so that we can confirm that they die.

  • There is not a worst, people can be so many shades of despicable. But if you want a story.
    When I was in high school a good friend of mine and my girlfriend's pretended to be gay and in the closet so that he could get my GF to pretend to be his GF to "make sure his parents wouldn't know". We both wanted to help him out so it was fine.
    In fact he just wanted to be in a relationship with her and figured it was the fastest and easiest way. Even her pretending was not good enough for him and just a starting point.

    He would go on to start a rumor about me that was so vile it got me suspended from school and detained by the police, while I was away he raped the girl he pretended to love and when she freaked out pushed her in front of a car.

    Like all the monsters in the world, they were just a person with sick twisted ideas of what they were owed and no, there isn't and wasn't karma or retribution against him. The world folds up and quietly moves on desperate to look away from the things that are to harsh to stare at for long by those pretending the world to be something better in blind hope that people are inherently good.

  • Yeah I try not to block since it lets people still comment on your stuff unheeded and without response but it is far better for mental health to just block and not deal with it. They do not handle conversation well and a lot of the louder Lemmings view conversations as a winner takes all brawl for superiority through mob support of upvotes.

    Just so you know FlyingSquid is also one of the largest posters on lemmy.world and you may see less if you stick to .world communities.

  • FlyingSquid will never be wrong and if you keep going they turn to emotional manipulation and abuse with threatening suicide and making horrible statements about their life in order to drag you to sympathize for them after they have been rude and unsympathetic to you.

    I don't think they are a bot but I think they are one of the worst people to discuss with on the platform for their own personal reasons.

  • The mods on Lemmy are not good. They help incite shouting matches at different communities for fun including ones that have the developers for Lemmy itself, let basic bait for profiling others exist because they proclaim to let the other side speak up if they wanted to after bashing them down.
    They will turn around and unironically claim to be just janitors with no power while ignoring the very position of mod gives them a lead role in how discussions are held.

    Lemmy is just 4chan for neo liberals and the mods act like it.

  • This is not a particularly helpful message for the time being since the election is past and won't be for a while at best.
    This is more a wish on what could have been and leaves little room for current discourse when this is a dead end topic.
