  • How is "may I suggest 4chan", a notoriously transphobic website, directed at someone from the Trans Lemmy, not supposed to be an insult?

    How is "fuck you" an insult? It doesn't attack you in any way whatsoever it just shows disrespect. I'm allowed to not respect you. Didn't say anything about you or even call you an asshole.

    You're not protecting marginalized groups, you're enforcing a standard of civility that is usually used to tell minorities "shut up, why are you so angry"

    If protecting minorities was the goal, the rule would be against racism, sexism, etc... but that's not the rule.

    I already explained several times why I'm against the policy but idk I guess you can't read that well? Really the only explanation I have here.

  • What did I say that was an attack? "fuck you"? is that an attack lmao ? these rules are arbitrarily enforced because I have seen people say that all the time, or say "fuck you" just in more words that they think are clever. the only reason I didn't put that in this post was I just forgot to lol

  • 🖕🏻🖕🏻🖕🏻🖕🏻 guess you can't handle a fucking emoji

    politeness is a social construct that disenfranchises the rightfully pissed. idk who is moderating here but they are clearly dumb as a box of brix if they think they're helping anything by blocking my comments that are clearly constructive as well as profane

  • Sounds like you have to be sponsored by a company to make the move though via a business visa? That still basically only happens to people in high paying jobs.

    You're in a high paying career and knew someone in the country, that made things way easier for you, and indiscriminately giving the advice that people should emigrate makes you sound like a privileged tool.

  • Adderall isn't an approved medication outside of the United States though, and it's the only drug that works for me. Plus... I'm already having a hard enough time. You need tens of thousands saved up to even afford a move, and then go through the immigration process? All that paperwork? Obviously there are better safety nets outside of the United States but most people privileged enough to afford to leave would also be in less need of a safety net.

    Basically, this is terrible advice lmao

  • Uber was originally marketed as ride-sharing, too. Just an app to find people going the same way. Of course, I'm fairly sure that their current iterations was the plan all along as anyone with enough business sense to start those companies must have predicted that there would be people who take on Uber/AirBnB as a primary source of income. But sharing your house or planning a shared trip is much more palatable than "Landlords but Worse".

  • I tried Strattera to avoid side effects from Adderall, but Strattera made me throw up whenever my heart rate got too high. I had to give it up, not to mention it didn't really feel like it was helping me focus. I now take very small doses of stimulant medication, 5 XR and 5 IR each day.
