  • The question is absurd given the clearly absurd reality of the situation here.

    This is a fact of life in the US. What the man did is completely reasonable in the context of the situation.

    You seem to be trying to illustrate the fact that there is too much gun violence in the US. Which is of course true.

    However, suggesting that what this man did isn't a reasonable reaction to the reality of his situation, is ignorant at best.

  • You can say whatever you want but people are going to judge you for it.

    Most people here prefer to use inclusive language that doesn't make anyone feel unwelcome.

    People with actual mental deficiencies exist on Lemmy and it may or may not hurt them to use words like this.

    If it hurts even one good person then it's probably just worth increasing your vocabulary to avoid that.

    Not to mention imo suggesting someone is actually "retarded" means they should be treated with understanding and patience. People who are deliberately ignorant don't deserve that patience.

  • What exactly is the problem? It upsets you that people come up with new humorous ways of speaking?

    It's not like your example actually has proper grammar either? So is the problem just that they added a word instead of taking one out like you did?

    I just don't understand the problem here.

    1. This is true and remote from all cover of falsehood
    2. Whatever is below is similar to that which is above. Through this the marvels of the work of one thing are procured and perfected.
    3. Also, as all things are made from one, by the condsideration of one, so all things were made from this one, by conjunction.
    4. The father of it is the sun, the mother the moon.
    5. The wind bore it in the womb. Its nurse is the earth, the mother of all perfection.
    6. Its power is perfected. If it is turned into earth,
    7. separate the earth from the fire, the subtle and thin from the crude and course, prudently, with modesty and wisdom.
    8. This ascends from the earth into the sky and again descends from the sky to the earth, and receives the power and efficacy of things above and of things below.
    9. By this means you will acquire the glory of the whole world, and so you will drive away all shadows and blindness.
    10. For this by its fortitude snatches the palm from all other fortitude and power. For it is able to penetrate and subdue everything subtle and everything crude and hard.
    11. By this means the world was founded
    12. and hence the marvelous cojunctions of it and admirable effects, since this is the way by which these marvels may be brought about.
    13. And because of this they have called me Hermes Tristmegistus since I have the three parts of the wisdom and Philsosphy of the whole universe.
    14. My speech is finished which i have spoken concerning the solar work
  • You are likely overestimating the how difficult it would be to just use Linux. Just dual boot until you stop booting windows.

    The thing about Linux is no one is fucking up the OS on purpose.
