No, we're just done with things like the orange man nazis, advertising, paywalls, borders, illegal for thee but not for me billionaires.
Bit once that's fixed we'll go back to clicking on links to help prince Abu Abowah of Nigeria to settle his bank account once and for all.
There is no engagement mechanism like rage
I go more for 'tiresomely cynical', but whatever.
Who the fuck says I'm hostile ? Fuck you
IMO online commenters are increasingly showing pathological binary thinking - the attitude that there are exactly two sides to every issue - the Right one and the Wrong one. Questioning ANY aspect of the Right one means you're obviously a hardcore supporter of EVERY aspect of the Wrong one. You're either morally and ethically pure or your character is a wretched hive of scum and villainy. To me it's a really paradoxical way of thinking about diversity and acceptance - more like we're supposed to either wholeheartedly embrace people or despise them.
Yeah. I see a surprising amount of it on Lemmy. It is behavior I'm used to seeing from the far right, Qanon, and other brainwashed vectors. I watched the Russians propagandize the right on Reddit.
These, however, are nominal leftists engaging in stark black and white thinking. I'm not sure if they're state level shills, bots, really believe it and are brainwashed tankies, or true believers living in China or similar. Maybe it's dumb kids being taken in by propaganda.
This is usually how people treat fascists. Not sure what’s surprising about it
Could you elaborate? I don't understand
Age group...
fuck no we aren't.
anyone who says otherwise can fight me.
And I'm pissed that you got to this comment first!
Yeah fuck that person
They both seem like assholes to me 🤷♂️
Pot and the kettle much?
You know what they say, if you find that you're always surrounded by assholes.... you're probably the asshole.....
Both sides are the same. Fight me on it
IMO, the reason is because scientists haven't found a way to punch someone in their face over the internet yet.
They send SWAT teams to their houses, which is pretty close.
I've long thought that phones needed a taze button. Every telephone in the world should have the power to deliver a high power electric shock to the user, and the phone network should only allow the callee to taze the caller. So if you call someone, the person you have called can taze you.
I don't see any problem with the telephone network that can't be solved by putting a 30,000 volt potential across the caller's jaw. Make it work on call bots too, if a computer automatically calls you and you don't want it to, put Shearon Harris on the line. Modern problems require 2nd Amendment solutions, and if you elect me as your president in 2028 it is these policies that I shall energetically enact.
I like to carry an air horn for when scammers and other nuisances call.
How often do you have to go get the mics on your phone replaced?
Not yet. 😂
Dang! Some decent hardware then! How bout your own hearing? Getting tinnitus yet? What level of hearing protection are you using?
I'm an old Army veteran, I've had tinnitus for years. I'm using a Pixel.
Sorry, pardon?
Never even fiddled around with someone else's Pixel, how do you like it?
Clearly it deals with being blasted by an air horn 3-15+ times a day, other than robust mics how is the build quality?
I'm using GrapheneOS, so I can't speak for the stock spyware that Google puts in. I'm sure that's horrible.
It's good quality hardware for sure.
the platforms see it as lucrative, therefore its hating eachother time.
