    Looks like overanalysis to me. Not sure the massive metaphor was necessary to attack 'them centrists'.

    That being said - the notion that centrism is a compromise is only something I've seen from people who are not partaking in said centrism. Not that I give a shit or anything.

    The funny thing is that I asked this question before, and was also downvoted then too because people think this isn't something that could ever happen to them and I must be stupid. Trust me folks, give it four more years and a ban or two and you'll be tearing your hair out just the same and cursing the platform.

    I Need Help

    I've been using reddit for over a decade and there's a few subreddits I've been banned from (/r/news, /r/crazyfuckingvideos, etc). Unfortunately, I keep forgetting when I'm browsing. If I accidentally comment in one of those my current account gets banned for ban evasion. Is there a browser extension that can block participation in certain communities but still allow you to see content? I can't keep having my current reddit accounts permenantly banned like this and then lose all my subscriptions and preferences and friends etc. This has happened twice already. Please help.

    Most people on the internet are emotionally little kids who fantasize about ending the lives of people who "deserve it". They have little understanding of how most things in the world actually work.

    When life puts them in a position they think they are righteous and justified, they can be capable of unimaginable cruelty. While seeing themselves as the "good guy" the whole time. I've seen it.

    There is basically no faster way to advertise

    1. That you get no pussy
    2. You've never been outside around a wild bear before
    3. You don't know how statistics work

    Unsurprisingly this is a bigly amount of people on any online platform, it turns out.

    Just... exponentially more on Lemmy since a large portion of it is Linux related.

    Nope, there's nothing controversial about it. If you're in a wooded area with a bear and a man you're more likely to be harmed by a man. Doesn't matter how you view the question, just matters how much of a basement dweller you are.

    Edit: By nothing controversial - no mainstream news or popular opinion pieces or the general public at large don't understand it. There is no controversy. Be insular on the internet all you want, I'm not attacking your opinions. But controversial is not this.

    There is literally nothing better about the clientele of this platform than reddit except people are nicer and probably less miserable on average in the comments. If anything its users are less socialized and more insular - e.g. I use linux server extensively for work where it controls most of the internet, but most of the hot takes here about linux here are beyond stupid. If anything, between Lemmy and reddit, the users here are even more convinced they're knowledgeable and infallible connoisseurs, if that's even possible. So when fallout does happen, it's generally more ugly.

    Also, the bear thing is not controversial - except with infantile man-children. Those people don't get to represent a demographic.

    Just an FYI in case you don't follow Cloud news but Google has deleted customers accounts on multiple occasions and has been for literal years. This time they just did it to someone large enough to make the news. I work in SRE and no longer recommend GCP to anyone.

    Why?? Please make this make sense. Having AI to help with coding is ideal and the greatest immediate use case probably. The web is an open resource. Why die on this stupid hill instead of advocating for a privacy argument that actually matters?

    Edit: Okay got it. Hinder significant human progress because a company I don't like might make some more money from something I said in public, which has been a thing literally forever. You guys really lack a lot of life skills about how the world really works huh?

    Hey Melodic Bassheads. Wanted to introduce my EDM community over on dbZero lemmy.dbzer0.com

    I made a community a couple weeks ago with the intention of just posting random stuff and seeing if it got any traction at all. It’s already at 50 subscribers so I think it’s going to be around for a bit! Basically, WestCoastEDM is focused on EDM that’s big on the American west coast rave scene, so Drum & Bass, Dubstep, Bass House, Leftfield Bass and more (but you can post whatever genre you want). What makes it different from other communities? Links are exclusively for new releases, dubplates, bootlegs, newly available older stuff, fresh mixes, and/or things you just wouldn’t be able to easily find anywhere else. I wanted something that would be fresh and content-rich for everybody, that any basshead could enjoy subscribing to. See you around, since I’ll be around here as well!
