Yup! Everybody here just wants to blindly defend israel and their genocide! Lemmy’s #1 priority is israel. In fact, the legal name of the website is actually “IsraeLemmy” but they just shortened it to trick Marxists.

Speaking of images that speak for themselves…

Don’t be sorry. Comments like that are what’s causing me to use Lemmy less. So fucking sick of the virtue signaling and selective outrage.

There’s no fucking ethical consumption in post-captialism. A literal pedophilic criminal is the US president, and I’m supposed to expend my energy hating the video game company that gives me Pokemon, Zelda, and Kirby? Fuck all the way off.

You can find examples of extreme weather/natural disasters in every single state.

Central/South IL is literally just fields is corn and soy.

The map is still crap lol.

Exactly. Calling all the bullshit. IL is actually known for being extremely safe natural disaster-wise. No wildfires, earthquakes, floods, droughts, heatwaves, deepfreezes, tsunamis, or hurricanes, no volcanos or mountains so no mudslides or avalanches, relatively few tornados/severe storms.

A somewhat similar thing happened to me. Made an admittedly spicy comment on r/FauxMoi on my main account. Got banned from that sub (which was fair). Made a second account months later and inadvertently commented on r/FauxMoi (literally just about a movie premiere date—the story was on my main page) without thinking about my prior account’s ban.

Got immediately perma-banned for ban evasion. I appealed and was ignored. Oh well.

And fwiw, you can still view all the content. Just can’t vote/comment. 🤷

The religious stuff was weird.

Quite literally how everyone in the comments sounds.

“Small communities of like minded individuals form and cooperate to solve food, safety, water and shelter concerns” - you literally described government. At its core, that is exactly what a government is.

Do “anarchists” hear themselves? I don’t know if OP is an anarchist, but this is why I don’t take them seriously. Their ‘ideal society’ always leads back to what is—in its most fundamental form—a government.

Genuinely thank you for this explanation. I never thought about how this is basically a fish (oil) vs fishing pole (solar) situation. Oil companies don’t want to give you the fishing pole to do it yourself, they want to charge you fish by fish, gallon by gallon of oil to maximize profits.

That is until solar-electric companies start banking electricity in huge batteries, then meting it out for a fee. Pretty sure that hellscape is in the works.

And take the NYT there too

Nature is beautiful.

Genuinely, what billionaire? Who are you referring to?

Bluesky’s CEO is Jay Graber who also owns 40% of the company, the largest ownership share. She has a net worth of $5million.

So again, who is this ”billionaire” that you and everyone else in the comments is referring to?

Seriously… I don’t get making a post like this without even providing pictures of what it’s like now.

He’s the literal celebrity SPOKESMAN for Salesforce’s AI push! He has at least 3 pro-AI commercials running right now (in america).

Fucking spare me.

Couldn’t agree more—fish are silly af!

Yeah I think it’s ironic that out of all the animals that can change their sex, OP chose one that doesn’t lol.

Do you not know how to fucking read?

Do you know what fucking irony is?

Jesus fuck yalls are dumb.

Damn son, your comment did NUMBERS!!! I got RATIOED!!! Will I ever recover???

And yeah no totally, my post was all about prognostication. You’re so right. My comment was absolutely telling people to predict the future and not at all about the IRONY of moving away from Nobels and to a different awards system that 20 years ago gave a peace prize to a women who would go on to launch a literal hate campaign.

But come thru Megamind! You’re a genius!
