Unfortunately most people on Lemmy are extremely serious people.

“Someone on Lemmy” is probably someone who thinks anyone who doesn’t use the right Marxist buzzwords is a CIA plant.

I’d tell myself I’m going to do it, but chicken out.

50% of what Gen X thinks is zoomer slang is actually jokes at zoomer slang’s expense

YouTube drama is just as vitriolic as politics and matters 100x less

You are, some people aren’t.

Corned Beef Reuben. A fuckton of corned beef, sauerkraut, Russian dressing, and Swiss cheese on rye. Jewish-American, but regional origins are disputed.

I guarantee you that most of those pizza arguments are between two Americans. Maybe the odd one that features an Italian.

I agree in regards to whites only spaces, but men’s only spaces have apolitical reasons to exist (just as not all of the reasons for women’s only spaces to exist are political.) The experience of being male is just different and sometimes some people just need space to discuss.

Never with “everyday” purchases. The two times it happened to me were a VST plugin and a game engine license.

(I’m also in the US with a nonwhite name.)

If they could take an Xbox One/Series SX controller and add in this order:

• Gyroscope

• Two extra face buttons (for fighting games)

• a rotary dial

• a trackball (both primarily for retro games that use them)

• a touchpad (or even better a touch screen)

• HD Rumble

without making the controller uncomfortable, that would be ideal to me.

Social Studies is civics and history. If you think they should be separate classes, fair enough.

Back when they were significantly cheaper than competing products, it was “you get what you pay for.”

Now…just go to Wendy’s.

I honestly feel like Lemmy got considerably less vitriolic toward Americans after the election.

I used to think Lemmy was too insignificant for Russian influents, but I’m not sure anymore.

It really does feel like online communities get more relentlessly xenophobic when they have more Europeans. It just seems like a lot of you can’t get by without mentioning where someone’s from. Like, no, someone not seeing the value in retro computing doesn’t say anything about “the intelligence of the average Scot.” And if you can’t tell where they’re from, American by default.

ITT: As per usual, Lemmy thinks living in conditions and condoning them are the same thing

Good. Living in a super power seems to suck period, because super powers care about ideology and power, not people. Do we need “hyper?”

If we could internalize the notion that real patriotism is the drive to create a better tomorrow for the people instead of blind conservative hatred of the unfamiliar we could do so much good.
