True. To throw my opinion into the mix, if the Rings of Power show did actually copy from his work, they should look to partner with Demetrious instead of all this nonsense. I agree he legally can’t profit off the IP of the Tolkien estate as laws stand, but copywrite also lasts far longer than it has any good reason to. It should be the author’s lifetime plus a decade or so. Finally, it is an affront to creativity everywhere to order the destruction of all physical and electronic copies. That should not happen. Ever.

All of Lemmy be up in arms here. Just vote with your wallet when you can. Buy the eggs at the farmers market, or the veggies if you won’t eat eggs. If you don’t have the funds, buy what you need to survive. I want my animals treated well before butchering, and I’ll mix the vegetarian meal into my diet regularly because it’s health for me to not eat meat every meal. I’m still going to eat animals, and most people have already decided what they are ethically ok with. Vegetarianism isn’t the biggest ethical concern for me at this time.

Agreed. I’ll be staying with Lemmy. I don’t care about daily active user numbers, I care about how Spez is treating Reddit and having good post content. Redditors themselves (as a whole) are not a problem, and I have a plethora of good posts to go through when I get on every few days.

Have a great day yourself

It feels like mostly internet veterans and people that care to explain themselves to me. Less recent users that don’t know technology or are newer to social media that isn’t “mainstream”.

Phone user here, can confirm. Wouldn’t get anything done if I had lemmy or reddit open on my pc.

Exactly! Add the alchohol and drugs and there’s no self-control left! Glad I’m not the only one, judging by the username.

The general public has enough of a mental split if the right direction of the country that short of splitting it somehow a sucessful revolt will lead to more fighting. Also country is super big. I’m content fighting my little battles withing my family/friends and using our voting system as much as I’d prefer significant changes.

Bruh really thinks not causing complete chaos and instability is being selfish.

Can confirm; also have friends with vastly different ideas and family that believe in conspiracies.

I’m also hoping Gen-Z can swoop in with record voting changes soon. That seem to be more organized and active than people my age that won’t go check a damn box once every four years.

You heard it here ladies, gents, and others. A pile of insults is defined as more than two, and a three paragraph counterargument with multiple points is considered weak and undermined by one “haha, bet you didn’t think of that!” sentence. Sorry bruv. Gotta hard disagree with your stance. I agree things are f***** i ti distopia, but a single organized revolution is both insufficient and monumentally difficult to achieve.

I have shared my thoughts here already, but ok. I’ll play along. I did consider it and it wouldn’t work due to a major split in the populace’s opinion, foreign powers that would get heavily involved, the sheer size of the country, and the inability for the revolutionary force to choose the correct moment to stop violent action.

I think I understand your question. If I already knew how to convince people to adopt a nuanced opinion instead of ultamatums, I wouldn’t have to push my friends every four years.

Goldmage263,

I understand they faced similar problems, but disagree that it can be done again. The problems are vastly larger in scale, and physical barriers that would mitigate problems like foreign influence are easily ignored with advanced technology. E.G. Russian hackers messing with water treatment plants because our current government can’t implement a secure enough system.

Goldmage263,
@Goldmage263@sh.itjust.works avatar

Yes, I gave a simple example for ease of following my point. A simple example of thousands of potential targets that would all need to be secured by a new government faster than any one of the hostile powers that would want to capitalize on a revolution.

Also, you ask me to do better. I’ll try “harder” after you refute the other things I said. You get to put in that work first.

What a terrible takeaway from the things I commented. Enjoy your future trolling, or on the off chance that was your attempt at good faith, try to take in what the other person is saying in the future. You’ll come off as more understanding and might be able to change minds.

If the downvoters want to buy more votes mine only costs $500. You can send you money to the nearest food pantry or food bank.

I’d love to watch forcefeed them a plate of their, “you will always be a woman” words.
