It’s weird… do you think Elliot cares what OP’s pirated copies list their name as, when the legal copies on stream have already updated the name? Would it not be better to pay for the content and support the artist that way?
This is one of the strangest virtue signals I’ve ever seen. Just watch the mediocre show and move on.
They didn’t have most of Walking Dead when we looked into it last year. We would have had to sub to maybe 3 services to get a full rewatch.
Raise money and awareness through non-destructive means, start a program, work on the problem yourselves and hope more people join in. Start a fucking tik-tok challenge, I don’t know, honestly.
But throwing soup at art is just cringey and makes you look weird. No one is going to be on board with that but other soup-throwers. Then you just have a whole group of people travelling around throwing soup at monuments and nobody knows what the fuck your point is, as evidenced by this comment section.
We have corporate protections in the USA.
It’s not a private sector over there, the government owns part of Tencent (or something similar, don’t quote me).
I was surprised to hear of their ban in the first place, given how big MTX are in China.
There was a short segment on 60 Minutes (maybe?) back in 2020 before the elections where they interviewed someone who had deprogrammed himself from Qanon.
It was the same story. He had no friends IRL, no social support, he had turned his mom onto Qanon and she was still down the rabbit hole.
He said that was the part that kept him in it for so long, even once he started questioning things. All his “friends” and close relations were part of the cult and he would have to cut ties with everyone or worse, they would turn on him and attack him as a traitor.
It would be sad if these online-cults weren’t so damaging to society.
When shitposting on Twitter actually lands you a writing gig.
List your top 5 worst presidents.
I could see cryptobros and the “investing” subs spending a lot on this. They were already buying tons of awards to hype themselves up.
Any unironic circlejerk cult will by buying these and pinning them on each other’s chest, same as the dumbass awards.
I think reddit knows their target audience pretty well; Rubes. That’s why they let all the toxic “stock”, crypto-scam and political extremist subs stay open until the media starts writing stories about them. Gullible idiots spend a lot of money trying to make their opinions look smart and popular.
This will make Reddit a lot of money in the short-term, but probably push more legitimate/casual users away as these “premium upvotes” will surely effect the algorithm and push more nonsense into people’s feeds.
Now that i think about it, this will probably help advertisers and political groups astroturf all of reddit.
Having proper diagnoses for people help them get care and treatment. It’s better than calling them all “stupid” and ignoring their struggles, which has been the case for decades.
Most of these “fancy new labels” you’re hearing lately are just recognizing people, so they can be included in society and treated with dignity.
You’re blaming Democrats? It’s been Dems fighting back against deregulation and anti-conservation efforts for decades.
Have the anti American bot farms turned to Lemmee already?
It was intentional. They didn’t 100% like either site so they made a community on both. They are seeing which they prefer after some use and development.
Everyone here is acting like they’re idiots who don’t understand the internet. They were high level mods.
There’s a quote from them further up someone posted. They just weren’t 100% sold on any site because they said neither quite fit what they wanted. So they started up two to see how they develop and which they prefer down the line.
once you establish a centralized power structure,… it is the literal definition of fascism.
By your definition almost any form of government is fascist. It that’s your opinion, fine, but it’s not the ‘literal definition’.
Nah if i see you got 1000 dollar phone, i assume you’re an elitist asshole, or bad with money.
The protests have just become the new reddit fad. Anyone still there that’s not part of a self-help, resource/info sub, and claiming to be part of the ‘protest’ is just circlejerking.
Same, joined last week after my app of choice was killed. Already spending more time here than i was at the end of my time on reddit.
Was getting so sick of the rage-bait, low quality comments and general snarky behavior, i might have quit anyway. So much better here.
I tried to explain Lemmy to my gf since she was on reddit a lot, but quit for other reasons. Her eyes glazed over, and she gave me a “wow that sounds cool” , like i was our toddler, excitedly telling her about a leaf i saw.
Just asking a question, huh? Second one of these threads I’ve seen in my feed today.
Neocons testing the waters, to see how far their hatespeech will get them.
