Yup, I was legitimately excited when I heard that memmy was more leftist friendly than reddit. I was sorely disappointed to learn that it was the stupid kind.
I haven't just considered it, I know for a fact that I'm farther left than an edgelord who thinks being "left" involves assuming the moniker of an actual historical freedom fighter as if to appropriate their struggles from the comfort of an air conditioned computer chair.
Paradox of tolerance. Christians are actively trying to invite violence against LGBT people by calling them groomers. That's the basis of their outrage, so it is simple to dismiss it as hateful or inauthentic.
This is the big reason why solid state batteries aren't an EV miracle. Pack density and charging speeds these days are already limited by cooling capacity. Trying to pump a few MW of power into a battery pack to get 600 miles in 9 minutes is going to melt the car, or require lugging around a huge cooling system.
It's really weird how emotional some people get about EV range and their completely imagined charging issues. On a 500 mile trip an EV adds maybe 20 minutes of charging, and that's if you are really trying to maxmin gas stops in an ICE.
Meanwhile never going to the gas station during the week because I charge at home saves way more time.
No, I think it's a perfect place to try out various information warfare strategies and let new trolls get their feet wet before promoting them to Facebook and reddit.
I've been saying this for a while now that this anger and resentment over childfree people has become increasingly pervasive and dangerous and it really feels like we are going to be one of the first against the wall.
Even among otherwise reasonable people I know there is a shocking amount of resentment towards people who choose to live their lives for something besides children.
I have seen no evidence that they actually believe that, considering how this diverges from their beliefs about the sanctity of life in many other areas.
It's so frustrating people don't get this. Progressive politics is stringing together election victories. The US system is designed to require longer term horizons to enact significant change. And we saw precisely why when we survived Trump's term.
Yawn. Get better material.
