Pons_Aelius, in If the internet has taught me anything it's that no one is an expert in anything

Most people don't want the correct answer, they just want their preconceived biases to be confirmed.

BudgieMania, (edited )

I've always strongly believed that so I'm happy that someone else mentioned it

Reddit is a big circlejerk of that

verysoft,

It's why a downvote system doesnt work with the masses

Pons_Aelius,

yep. The bigger the sub, the worse it was.

You would get some niche subs were there was some decent discussion but once one passed about 100K subscribers there would be a noticeable downward spiral.

Uh no, if I'm looking up how to troubleshoot an issue with my computer's motherboard, I don't want to be told to slather it in banana pudding just because I like bananas. There ARE things where you can't "bias" your way out of it, things that are objectively correct and incorrect.

Pons_Aelius,

There ARE things where you can't "bias" your way out of it, things that are objectively correct and incorrect.

There are still people who believe the world is flat.

The things you believe are objectively correct and incorrect are not the same for everyone.

That is the problem,

Reality is not the same for everyone and many people believe they have the right to enforce their version of reality on others.

They’re talking about people who believe misinformation or that their opinions and values are (or should be) universal. There is very little critical thinking or empathy from the masses on social media.

dangblingus, in Your mix tape isn't fire, it's smouldering at best

Why is it always the worst rap music imaginable? Like, I’m a hip hop fanatic, old school, new school, trap, g funk, boom bap, conscious, etc. But why is it the most asinine “i took a xanny now i’m fucking your girl” type shit?

Madison420, (edited )

You don’t enjoy “Gucci Gucci Gucci Gucci, fucked yo girl on a Tuesday, Gucci Gucci Gucci Gucci, I made poopies on yo boobies, Gucci Gucci Gucci Gucci.”

For real when did brands become choruses?

Tvkan,
Madison420,

That’s not at all the same, since it’s part of the chorus and follows a rhyming scheme that isn’t just rhyming itself.

LSNLDN,

I often wonder if they get sponsored, like all these AP and Rolex on drill wrappers wrists they rap about idk, seems so specific sometimes

Empricorn,

Is that really a lyric!?

Madison420, (edited )

No it’s a joke about a megos song.

KrankyKong, in Get it together

Dispatch: it’s… impossible!

Conductor: no, its necessary.

EveryMuffinIsNowEncrypted, in The Fuck Lemmy, you're trending wrong.
@EveryMuffinIsNowEncrypted@lemmy.blahaj.zone avatar

I do not understand the problem with this image.

Would you please explain?

db2,

Trans bad. Or something like that.

tubaruco,

im more confused about transmemes being on lemmynsfw

coffeebiscuit,

No, not that one. The other 4, and not the dirty roads.

Vuraniute,
@Vuraniute@thelemmy.club avatar

Shouldve circled it so people dont misidentify you as a transphobe.

coffeebiscuit,

True… this one is on me.

eltimablo,

It's really not. People like Varaniute will find something wrong with even the most glimmering of complements. My recommendation is to block and move on.

un_aristocrate, (edited )

These communities are not trending.

Even if going from one subscriber to three technically qualifies as a 200% growth it does not qualifiy as trending.

Where do you prefer to take your donations?

Grayox, (edited )
@Grayox@lemmy.ml avatar

To the grocery store so I dont starve to death

Edit if i had excess income I would donate to The Trevor Project.

RotatingParts,

The Freedom From Religion Foundation

Crashumbc,

One with a better track record of using donations for charity and not spending money on anti gay agendas.

AVincentInSpace,

Toys for Tots was pretty good last I checked

KingThrillgore, (edited )
@KingThrillgore@lemmy.ml avatar

They got Dolly Parton for a football game that’s the definition of excess.

I love Dolly, all us Tennesseans do, but come on.

ignotum,

But christmas is the season of giving, and bigots are peaople too 🥺

jackoneill,

Nowhere, not rich enough to be able to donate when we can barely cover our own expenses

ignotum,

You’re prioritizing your own survival over filling the pockets of the salvation army leadership? (They are quite well “compensated” for their “efforts”)

And this during christmas, the season of giving?

Have you no compassion?

TootSweet,

Archive.org too.

negativenull,
@negativenull@startrek.website avatar

eff.org too

Carrot,

I always give my money to local animal shelters + archive.org

Omega_Haxors, (edited )

I actually got a grant from a local animal shelter and I was planning on giving back… until I checked my email to see if I got any clients and found out that they’ve been sending astronomical amounts of spam there (I definitely never consented to that, it was my professional email) and quickly reconsidered. Same reason i’m never donating to wikipedia ever again. I didn’t give you my email so you could slam it with commercials… Hope that quarter of a penny you got was worth it, assholes, because once i’m done cleaning up you’re never seeing another cent from me ever again. Donated to antifa once, got a single email saying “Remember that cause you donated for? We won.”

I use that as a litmus test. I now have a “spam” email and donate small amounts. If they spam that email, I won’t donate again.

AVincentInSpace,

I’m a fan of Toys For Tots as a direct alternative. They don’t accept money; you just buy a toy and put it in the donation bin, and they distribute them

KingThrillgore, (edited )

Kystael,

Gdq are clowns now and if you say it you’re transphobic and don’t support LBGTQ rights

blanketswithsmallpox,

Huh? Why?

LinkOpensChest_wav,

I’d like to add Lakota People’s Law Project and Minnesota Freedom Fund

SuddenDownpour, in Oh No, anyway

Why are y’all in the comments trying to act like one or another universalist position has to fit like a sock to all situations? There are debates where one side is blatantly wrong and the other is blatantly correct, debates where one side is wrong and the other has some points right, debates where both sides have some points right, debates where both sides would do well to return to school and debates where no side can be objetively correct because they’re discussing something intrinsically subjective. The “enlightened centrist” meme is useful to mock the stupid position that “the truth is always in the middle”, but if you think you’re always going to find someone in any debate who has the right answer, you’re going to find yourself siding with stupid shit all the time.

lightnsfw,

Differing opinions is not the same thing as misinformation.

rosymind,

Yes! Can we pin this somewhere for new Lemmy users to read? I’m so over the right/wrong ONLY attitudes

ieightpi,

It would be better if we taught people to be critical thinkers

Titou, in Not sure how the girl's skin tone is relevant, but apart from that...

Never did any research, did you ?

Driveway4964, in Get it together

Polar express

Magnetar, in poor Dean

That’s for the very simple reason I don’t know who Dean Koontz is.

HowMany, in Lemmy about to implode.

That sounds horribly painful. How on earth can it be remedied.?
