I’m guessing it’s actually because you’re Republican
MAGA… “Free thinkers.” Lol.
A right winger misrepresentating a situation to appear more sympathetic? Say it ain’t so.
So cool, I love that marker you put on me. Makes it easier to round up people you don’t like ;)
I really wish you people were as oppressed as you think you are
Lol says the ice supporting Nazi
Aww sweaty, you’re making my night :^)
I’m not getting sweaty with you, magat
Lol nice malapropism. Or is “sweaty” just a Republican term of endearment ever since the whole Trump / Epstein debacle?
Ironically enough I know it as a 2014-era tumblr meme

Man, nobody can put “a target” on you for something you say on a public forum that people get mad about.
You guys want freedom of speech? Freedom of speech is also getting shit on online for something you say. You have a right to speak, not a right to be liked.
Must feel great then for this to be the top level comment and everyone seeing through your bullshit :) <3. Makes it easier for people to know to avoid you, while you pretend like you’re not actively rounding up people who aren’t the same color as you <3.
Awwww, is the widdle MAGAt upset they can’t blend into the crowd and lie about why they received mean messages?
You mean like ICE is doing right now?
Aww man. I’ve been searching for someone who consistently gets more downvotes than upvotes and you were so close. Keep it up!
(Seriously this is a thing I do. I’m not kidding you. Every time I see someone with an incredibly bad take I look at their profile for this. I’m trying to see if those kinds of people eventually get tired and stop commenting, stay mostly silent, or what)
Stay tuned, I’ve got my whole life ahead of me!
Nobodys rounding you up bub, we just want you to go away
Man, I don’t like MAGA either. I think they represent pretty much everything that’s wrong with society today…
But for a community that talks so often about disliking echo chambers, it really seems like most Lemmy users want an echo chamber.
Lemmy has everything from libs to anarchists to tankies. If that’s an echo chamber I think I’ll survive without fascist voices in the mix. The North Korea apologists are bad enough.
That’s fair, I can definitely understand that position and agree with you on the NK apologists.
From my point of view, I think it’s more productive to interact with people I disagree with, in the (possibly naive) pursuit of changing their minds. If people are kicked out for their views, I’d imagine many of them will just double down and act like a martyr.
To be clear, I’m not saying we shouldn’t call these people out and downvote them – that’s why that function exists right? But maybe once in a while, something that we argue will resonate with them.
Of course there are limits to that approach, and this all hinges on the other person arguing in good faith. Based on the OP’s post history, I’ll admit that I may be barking up the wrong tree in this case.
That’s an optimistic perspective and I feel like we need more optimism these days. And maybe sometimes people do change their minds on things with social media discussions, though I think it’s already a difficult medium to work with.
For maga shit though, those people are basically cultists, and from what I understand it’s pretty much impossible to get people out of a cult without a personal connection helping them.
Ignore the 12 year old edgelords, just like any other forum.
Lemmy is nearly 100% 32 year old edgelords
Hey, I’m a 59 so perhaps the average means there are 12yr olds as well :)
Well that’s just straight mean to fags.
(They’ve been banned forever)
I really learned to appreciate the Linux people after meeting the FOSS crowd. These people literally make me want to pay for software.
those are the same people, sir
There is definitely an overlap but I think Linux users are more like vegetarians, they cut out the commercial OS from their diet and are content with that. FOSS people are more like militant vegans … they won’t be happy unless everyone else has to use the shitty software they do.
i mean, there are degrees to everything
Just a year or two ago I would’ve said that i don’t even understand why linux exists. Now i’d rather say that windows should stop being a thing asap, as it brings nothing but problems and stagnation to consumer electronics, and nowadays it goes the same for any major proprietary software piece.
What can i say, i hope the era of corpos is nearing its end, and we’re the witnesses
Oh, I totally agree with that. I like Linux/FOSS.
It’s the people that post about it online that are insufferable.
currently
we’re the people
or at least i am :D
also, how would others know about all that cool free stuff that i found, that’s actually cooler that the paid one 🥺🥺🥺
foss doest have any marketing budgets, so of course foss users would blabber about it all over the place.
so, like, seriously, what’s the alternative here?
“Shitty software”??? Basically most of non-FOSS software is shitty. Its not because we want to use shitty software, but we better use shitty software that gets better overtime, than shitty software that only gets worse. Also why everyone else has to use it?? Idgaf what you use, but I’m only angry, when you decide to pay for shit software, instead of donating the better and more free software, thats the only thing that makes me angry about people.
Right, Imma continue using shitty lemmy, mastodon and linux and be happy with it :) You suck Gates, Altman’s, Zuck’s cocks and also I wish you being happy with it :) Ig you like it 😈
shitty software
I feel like you’ve never had to deal with proprietary bullshit.
what do you think veganism is?
Mostly self-righteous virtue-signaling.
But veganism isn’t widely accepted as a virtue, so who are we supposedly signaling to by being combative?
Edit: also you apparently agree that veganism is a virtue?
But veganism isn’t widely accepted as a virtue
But is it?
?
Grow up.
