No, no one in history achieved their rights by “just having a peaceful talk in the marketplace of ideas”, because all governments are hierarchies that exist to benefit the top of this hierarchy, and with peaceful talks you achieve nothing but continuation of the status quo. What's the point of letting the nobility, fascists, dictators, oligarchs, or anyone who is nothing but poison exist? They will continue oppressing others no matter how many times will you talk with them, they will only shut up if you show them you're not going to tolerate them.
Apparently the user himself claims to be elon musk, but the most convincing thing so far is that there was some sort of a thread where he discussed the idea to make non-logged users unable to see the content, and hours later this change actually happened on twitter.
The only thing I can say is that if it's actually him, we will just once again get a confirmation that he's cringe, for now, whoever this is, is incredibly cringe, even if it's not elon musk.
Certain people joined Lemmy just as a better alternative to Reddit, but it seems like they're just leaving one toxic social media for the sake of another. Well at least there are no hierarchies (not talking about .ml rn), billionaire ceos, and algorithm, which is the most important, so i guess the toxicity problem is up for us the users to solve, even if such people will always exist
Oh, I see, i didn't get it at first. If you're not into recent trends it doesn't make you elderly or sth, i had the same feeling even if i'm a teen, about various stuff, so whatever. Memes and trends nowadays don't last more than a week (tho it seems that floptok is still going but it's an exception)
I deleted my tiktok account, and I feel pretty much the same, I have no idea about recent trends or whatever, but I liked floptok and didn't want to give it up just by deleting tiktok, there are still floptok communities on non-fediverse social media, but it would be cool if they existed on fediverse too. It's also been quite long since it's appearance and it still hasn't died as a meme, i suppose.
These are various memes which eventually became sth like a subculture, mainly on tiktok. It encompasses for example Cupcakke remixes, jiafei and many other stuff. It's also connected to expressive language, words like "slay", "ate", purple heart core (💜), and usage of sparkles (✨) and painted nails (💅) emojis. Flops oppose the so-called "Daboyz" which encompasses modern culture of young manosphere, fascist teens, geotubers, and gen alpha. The traits of Daboyz is the usage of incel slang like "alpha/sigma" and gen alpha slang like "skibidi ohio gyatt", as well as characteristic emojis (💀, ☕).
