  • Okay just block them, and block everything else you dont want to see, idk yeah theyre a bunch of crazy wannabe communists, i agree we all agree, just block and move on, like what else is there? Doxx them? That makes no sense, right?

    it’s crazy people who are butthurt ivan drago lost in rocky iv, they’re not worth your attention – quite frankly this couldn’t be a better advertisement for lemmy.mi or whatever it is. So i guess that’s my rant, stop reacting with content you don’t like. If something real and local to your geography is happening, yes, go to a protest, volunteer helping underserved communities. But if it’s on freaking social media (federated or otherwise) just block and move on, dont feed into it. We don’t even know what corner of the world they actually live in. Think about all the horrible people in the world in positions of power – they all get tons of negative attention online and they harness that negative attention into real-world benefits for them.









  • No, just no. Just stay off reddit lmao, not trying to be harsh or whatever but it’s a very simple answer.

    there will definitely be some users over there that discover the fediverse and join us, there will also be some that won’t. And we don’t want them all to come, ghislane maxwell can stay on reddit forever from her country club prison computer, for example.

    So just keep doing whatever it is you’re doing to contribute to the fediverse, either by being a powermod or just a lurker, and as the fediverse grows and adapts it will attract those it should attract.

    Going back and contributing to a website owned by literal trump funders just seems like a complete nonstarter to me.

    Idk, tell your IRL friends, discord friends whoever, sure, i just don’t think posting on reddit is the answer to doing anything positive for the fediverse.








  • Interesting because i think i identified the same problem as you but i think of it as delusion. A lot of people (most people?) honestly believe that being smart means figuring things out with little effort. But all the smartest people ive ever met are extremely well organized and hardworking BECAUSE they’re so smart. They’re able to see the big picture and have a very sharp insight that problems are solved with an organized well planned approach, which often involves a lot of tedium.

    Smart people aren’t bored by that, they see how the tedium ties directly into success/solutions/rewards. Dumb people really believe that they can be smart by divining solutions and that could not be further from the truth
