Velma displeased Scooby
If I may quote Nick Offerman...
I grow a beard because I am neither a child nor a woman.
Crazy. I just watched this video where Ninja from Die Antwoord talks about how Kanye just turns on porn while they're hanging out.
Makes sense now
I came over during the Reddit migration but I'm so tired of every post either being about Israel/Palestine, late-stage capitalism, or femboys...
or worse - when the post is about something completely different but the comments are about Israel/Palestine, late-stage capitalism, or femboys...
I had somehow curated my Reddit to be mostly about the topics I wanted to read about, but I can't seem to get that to happen here. I've been blocking communities and instances but my feed is still mostly stuff I don't really want to read about...
I'm currently waiting to see what happens when Reddit IPOs but I doubt I'll go back there and will probably just stop coming to lemmy too.
¯_(ツ)_/¯
Honestly, the more I think about this, I feel like keeping Threads will pull more people FROM there than it will push people away from Lemmy... once they learn what the fediverse is.
Anyone that's on Lemmy **now ** isn't going to go over to Threads.
Not federating it seems like a weird choice. Can't each user block Threads themselves if they want? Isn't that the point of the fediverse? User control?
I dunno... I keep coming back to a thing I read recently about how most people back in Nazi Germany didn't want to exterminate all the Jews.
they just didn't care.
I always thought it was direct sunlight that burned vampires.
the tolerance paradox
If everyone is tolerant of every idea, then intolerant ideas will emerge. Tolerant people will tolerate this intolerance, and the intolerant people will not tolerate the tolerant people.
So... Wait.
This means someone can just @ someone else and destroy their feed with hate or dick pics or whatever?!
Nice Try, Amazon PR Flunky!
