Dragonstaff@leminal.spaceto Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•Things are about to finally change!English62·1 day agoGee, buddy. Do you really think “American Leftists won’t vote for a Black woman” is a “slight” disagreement? Anybody trying to sow division and discord is an op, whatever politics you profess to hold.
If you were a leftist, you might not be so blithe about substituting your insane guesses for my lived experience. You think you have a better understanding of my own politics than I do, while you’re telling me that I didn’t vote for Kamala because we are the same race. You’re goofy AF.
Dragonstaff@leminal.spaceto Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•Things are about to finally change!English61·1 day agoDamn right we aren’t loyal to politicians. Are you looking for a leftist Trump? Jon Stewart is not the “left” so I’m not sure why you’re mentioning him at all.
The left is not looking for a coach. We are hiring an employee.

I’m neither sure rhat I’m following you or that you understood the person above you, but American proclivities are well known. If we’re talking about “the left”, I’d be interested in any actual information about whether “the left” did vote for Harris or not, rather than Democrats assuming that anyone critical of them must not have voted.

Dragonstaff@leminal.spaceto Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•Things are about to finally change!English293·2 days agoDoes it weird anyone else out how “centrists” or “moderates” or whatever they want to call themselves need to bash leftists when nobody was even talking about leftists? It feels like an op.
Is this “person” I’m replying to living in the same universe as we are? If this feels like valid criticism to anyone, please go touch some grass and talk to your therapist about it.
Dragonstaff@leminal.spaceto Memes@lemmy.ml•"If you didn't want fascism you should have voted!"English1·2 days agoIf the shoe fits, wear it. It’s weird that you think my comment “focused” on white people, and also weird that you’re trying to blame all Americans when Republicans are 90% white and the only group that the majority of which ever voted for Republicans.
Republicans are a white problem. There is no other way to put it. Sorry I’m not sorry if you’re unused to being talked about collectively., but not doing so is burying the lede. Every time you said “people”, it would be more accurate if you said “white people”, but you don’t even understand why you don’t do that.

Dragonstaff@leminal.spaceto Memes@lemmy.ml•"If you didn't want fascism you should have voted!"English11·3 days agoNo, the majority of white people and the majority of people who voted voted for Trump. That is a big difference. As much as some liberals want to say “Not voting is the same as voting for Trump”, that is not true.

I think about tabloids as “Propaganda that pays for itself”. What better way to sow distrust in science than wild stories about nonsense? Repeat a lie enough times and people start to believe it.
Tabloids have comparatively high sales because they’re pap aimed at the lowest common denominator. Young people don’t read print papers, so the tabloids make a business of confirming the worst Boomer fears.
Dragonstaff@leminal.spaceto Memes@lemmy.ml•"If you didn't want fascism you should have voted!"English9·3 days agoWhen both parties are right, and most voters stay home, isn’t that the same thing?
You keep talking about “voting left” as if voters are given that option. Harris could have run on corralling big business. Does anyone think that “Almost as hard on immigrants as Republicans” was a better platform than running against billionaires?
Dragonstaff@leminal.spaceto Memes@lemmy.ml•"If you didn't want fascism you should have voted!"English4·3 days agoWhere do you get your opinion of Americans? The answer doesn’t’ matter because every media outlet, including social media, is owned by billionaires. Lemmy being the possible exception, but don’t tell me you get the impression that Americans are right wing from here.
Doesn’t it seem weird how many think pieces about Trump voters there have been in the past decade? I’ve never seen an article about an Anarchist. Not a single article about someone who didn’t vote. Meanwhile, every algorithm takes you to the furthest right content you’ll accept.

As an IT guy, I know what to expect when I get to hell.
Dragonstaff@leminal.spaceto Technology@lemmy.world•Bluesky has started honoring takedown requests from Turkish governmentEnglish1·6 days agoI’m sorry you haven’t seen every other “haven for free speech” turn into a haven for NeoNazis and pedophiles. Pardon me for actually understanding how things work, and remembering Reddit, Voat, the Chans, etc. it’s funny you’re acting like bringing up how long it took to get rid of /r/Jailbait is a “strawman”.
Call me the problem after you say how you’re going to stop pedophiles from trading CSAM on your platform, not before.
Dragonstaff@leminal.spaceto Technology@lemmy.world•Bluesky has started honoring takedown requests from Turkish governmentEnglish11·7 days agoWhen someone says they want to create a haven for NeoNazis and pedophiles, I just want to check in and see if they’ve thought things through. It’s hilarious how you’re calling me names for pointing out the obious problem instead of trying to come up with any way to mitigate the harm.
I don’t think you’ll be doing enough good to make a net positive from your child pornography and Nazi haven. Have fun though.
Dragonstaff@leminal.spaceto Technology@lemmy.world•Bluesky has started honoring takedown requests from Turkish governmentEnglish21·8 days agoYou did.
completely ignore all country laws in favor of complete and absolute freedom of speech.
If you didn’t realize what you said, hopefully you’ll rethink your goals to include the obvious end results. I suppose you could disallow images of you’re not serious about “complete freedom”, then you just have NeoNazis instead of pedophiles.

Your opinion is dumb and you should feel bad.
