here it’s not exactly the most gripping commentary but there it is https://www.latimes.com/opinion/topoftheticket/la-na-tt-bernie-fans-20160726-snap-story.html

people don’t like posts that they don’t understand or posts that challenge them

there’s no meaning but it’s sort of like the plot of henrik ibsen’s a doll’s house but with carrots

covid did a number on memetic half life.

at least 10x as many memes per month between 2020-25 compared to 2015-20 so it feels like a lot longer

fair but you absolutely don’t have your meme eras down right. this is 2017 at earliest.

you fear what you can’t understand

“It’s not about cost.” Running an imperfect system expensively is not grounds to gut the system entirely.

I don’t believe it’s not about cost and in my opinion you’re silly to believe it. You fell for propaganda and even worse it was propaganda on Joe Rogan of all places lmao.

And you believed him

Watched the episode. Completely disagree. His whole schtick was “yeah moderation is really hard yet super important to get right, that’s why as a cost cutting measure we are curtailing the entire operation lol.”

i’m with you.

there are absolutely multiple things leading to an alienation of users and distro squabbles is just one, which i agree is insignificant.

the real thing posts like this betray is the deeper pattern of disdain and coldness even toward those on the “in group.” there is virtually no sense of camaraderie or mutual respect in the community. rtfm culture and one-up-manship are something of the default here, with user experience, accessibility, and user facing documentation falling deeply into the wayside.

Yall wonder why the desktop Linux community hasn’t grown as much as you wish and then upvote stuff like this

The constant superiority struggles do nothing but alienate most computer users

equivalent to seeing a cybertruck on the road like leave me the fuk alon e ✋

totally. but i think it’s important to let people know even /pol/ and /b/ have mods. someone the other day told me non-moderation is the “default option” for internet spaces and i think that deep and ahistorical misconception can lead to poor leadership if left unchallenged.

With peace and love: All the comments saying this should reconsider next time. Saying “duh” to oppression normalizes oppression.

The worst most bigoted most bootlicking red-voting person you know is happy chatting about the evil that is H1Bs and how we are annexing Greenland and Panama right now. They need to hear that the person they voted in has dropped his support for helping them through their struggles to feed themselves.

Generally, we are all saying “duh” to the wrong things. All the top comments here are “duh” while no one yada yada’d the Greenland annexation theatrics.

Again I am being blunt so no hate to you specifically, you are just the top comment representing a larger pattern.

democrat leadership will see this and think “damn! they are on to us we have to lie and scheme even harder at the expense of human dignity next time!”

nice job OP genuinely appreciate your expression of discontent and it seems like it might be successful too

don’t worry i get the joke and it’s not funny enough to repeat you are happier not understanding

not sure if you are joking but 4chan isn’t unmoderated either. just has a much more bare bones philosophy.
