Fan of breaking echo chambers by being devils advocate. Other than that, centrist. As in in USA I’d be considered left.

  • I understand your point but every single person that said that to me was unable to form their message neatly and efficiently.

    No hello. No asking if it’s okay to ask. Write concisely, state all your questions in first message, drop the masquarade of niceness. People who use that get similiar response - and without the awkward call-like “gimmie a sec, need to check” or worse “let me circle back to it later”. As soon as I get the info, you have it. In the meanwhile, you can focus on something else.

    Not saying this applies to you though - simply yoir comment caused a flood of bad memories of call-centric people being unable to use messages, mostly due to laziness.




  • Skyrim civil war in nutshell:

    One side - ambitious and zealous racist who got fedup when species that have ages old beef with his people fucked Imperium, and then spat in the face of nords.

    Other side - A scorned mother that got pissed old traditions resulted in the death of her child and became petty incarnate deciding that these traditions are yucky only after they fired against her.

    Still on Ulfric’s side ideals wise, but the racism pisses me off x_x











  • Wanting to be billionaire is not to be mentally ill. Who doesn’t like power without responsibility? Whatever moral framework you’ve got, most folk wouldn’t subscribe to when given option to be billionaire. Sorry, but that’s reality - power makes people drunk, and it’s only natural for us to want power - power to make our families and friends live better, to make people we despise grovel, to have all we want. It takes discipline and ideals to veer off into helping everyone.

    And I agree with the lofe being made harder being the reason, but it doesn’t really apply to original comment I replied to.


  • Lemmy tends to have skewed perception of such things. Truth is, most people want money. As much as possible in as short time as possible. There’s a multitude of reasons, from wanting a luxurious life, to simply wanting to not have to worry about the money or to retire early, but pretty much everyone wants money. Look at how many folk join the lottery.

    Hell, most of Lemmy wants student debt to be forgotten. That’s gaining money, just in reverse order. Same with distributed wealth etc.

    World spins around money, no matter how you look at it.

    But sure as hell I wouldn’t like to be in a place I hate to earn it. :/
