Fantastic use of X’s 😆 Well done.
Ask me anything.
I also develop Tesseract UI for Lemmy/Sublinks

Remember Rule 1: No politics. The post itself is fine since it’s about the meme. Please don’t turn the comments into political shouting, but otherwise carry on.
If that were to happen, it’d only be for tech companies, not people. lol.
Sure. Would be willing to at least help with the riff-raff. My main alt is @[email protected]
It seems like the productive discussion has run its course, and OP seems to be finished with it. Locking post.
To be fair to OP, I didn’t even think of phrasing it that way when I was trying to parse it.
That’s a lot better put.
I’m pretty sure your heart is in the right place, but your argument is more than a little confusing.
The first paragraph clearly states that you believe sexual attraction is not a choice, and yet your argument is that “it’s not a choice” is counter-productive.
If I understand it correctly, you’re basically saying to re-frame the “it’s a choice” narrative into something that affects straight people who oppose LGBT+ rights because they believe it is a choice that can be made?
e.g. If you’re straight and then one day “choose” to be gay, but LGBT+ rights have been abolished, then the government has taken away your right to choose?
If I’m understanding correctly, all other points aside, it may be too confusing to have any good/meaningful impact.
At least you have them. We don’t :'(
I would highly encourage anyone who feels sympathetic to this comment to read through the comment history and modlog of the person who made it before voting.
Combative, promoting violence, and generally using the Palestinian crisis to universally bash anyone they disagree with about anything while also derailing unrelated conversations. But yeah, it’s the mods who are the problem. 🙄
It would make a difference is all I’m saying.
Perfect and better are not mutually exclusive concepts.
If people would at least just check the community they’re posting to, it would help immensely.
Added emphasis to previous statement.
It’s a conspiracy, bud. Trying to keep the truth down!
OR…there’s like 300 duplicates of the exact same thing because everyone thinks they’re CNN and the first to break the story and the mods are cleaning up.
Take your pick.
I thought that would be different here, but sadly is not. lol

Good truly unpopular opinion, and mostly good discussion on the points made. That said, I think pretty much all the points that were going to be made have been made. Locking thread.
I’ve been using this one a bit more during these federation backups. I can’t really adopt it as my daily driver, though. My home instance is the one I run, so I tend to favor it. lol
If my instance ever gets sync’d back up where I can interact in something approximating real-time, I may make that happen lol.
Oh, I was just lamenting that such a garbage post is contributing to the backlog because of the activities it generates (which LW has to federate out since its “owns” the community this was posted in). Basically a potshot at a low-effort, shit take of a post.
It’s a Lemmy thing. Basically latency limits the maximum number of activities that can be sent per second (they’re sent like TCP: serially, and each must be acknowledged). When LW has a LOT of activities to send out, they can get backlogged if there’s significant latency between LW and other federated servers.
That’s the gist of it, anyway.
Your last submission was a
littlelot too “Thanos was right, and we should do that” but without a fictional framing device. If you can re-work it to be alittlelot less dehumanizing to 50% of the world’s population, please feel free to resubmit.But I will say that those people you’re calling parasites would probably be more “useful” to society if society wasn’t largely an orphan crushing machine and they had a chance to utilize their potential.
Again, if you can rework it so it’s not “Thanos was right”, feel free to resubmit. This post, however, is not an unpopular opinion and I’m going to have to remove it.
