Anything veganism (positive)
Or negative, depending on the crowd. It's just a polarising topic.
Vegetarianism seems to be creeping towards acceptance, though.
With women, bathroom talk. With the boys we always talk about shit and piss and crack each other up. But mention anything related to that around a girl, she'll look at you as if you killed her dog.
You first!
Kernel contributions
Apparently asking what people are going to do to relax after voting must be taboo, because my post got deleted without me being told why.
The moderators have the power therefor when they do something rude it actually isn't rude. In fact you are rude for suggesting that they are being rude, and deserve punishment.
It's funny how power works.
I've seen screenshots posted of lemmy logs on other instances. Some mods seem to be quite disconnected from reality.
Tho, to be fair, we only get to see the bad stuff there. I'm sure the majority of mods is great
The left lane, and how no, it's not for going as fast as you want to drive.
It is also the fast lane so move TF over if you are moving slower than the other lanes
gun rights
Is it though? As long as one is relatively reasonable. There's even gun communities here, even if they're pretty dead at the moment. Time for me to come up with some memes maybe.
I guess so, it's just that if I say I support the right to own a gun, I get downvoted in most communities
Yeah, in heavily left-wing spaces guns give people the wigglies. Even if it's not rights, the general fact we live in a world with them is something people try to memory hole.
You and I define "heavily left-wing" quite differently then. The far-left has always supported gun rights and armed struggle. It's the political centre and parts of the right that are blanket anti-gun.
I feel like Iβm not good with words, so when I criticize popular things like Baldurβs gate 3 or Witcher 3 I usually get downvoted
People put BG3 on a massive pedestal and any sort of valid complaint around launch was heavily downvoted. It's not quite as bad now, thank god. I got gaslit so much. Everything was my fault supposedly, not their perfect, polished game.
I donβt remember the exact complain, but I think I said something about battles taking too long and someone ratioβd me with a comment βskill issueβ
That's how I feel with nearly any online conversation. I'm on the spectrum and have social anxiety. Not a fun combo for trying to be understood when being critical about anything really. Let alone someone's favourite game.
Try talking about Return to Office around the workplace and watch everyone get quiet real quick
