Most people don’t have time to fritter on new tech, alt clients, etc. Honestly they’re not stupid and I resent the implication–Reddit’s just predatory. If we want an alternative to flourish, we gotta stop treating it like its a “smart people club” and being elitist about it
def def!!! <3
yay!!!

why exactly should i give a shit what nazis think of me? get outta here with your goofy liberal ass
God that’s an insufferable take, “if you don’t like it, leave without saying anything”? This is one post. A single one! I think speaking my mind is ok, and clearly some folks agree with me here. I think it’s a worthy discussion.
“Ignore and make your own” is honestly the most naive and spineless thing you can say. Imagine acting on that principle IRL, for instance, when people you consider your friends say or do something vile.
I really can’t agree that the name is funny. It affiliates everyone who wants to gather and talk about PCs with so-called “race scientists” who genocide in the name of a so-called “master race”. Can’t imagine wanting to associate with that, but its horrifying that people think it’s politically neutral to do so.
haha you got me! real racists sure do love joking about being proxy racists online :)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Race_(human_categorization) “master race” is definitionally about race and the use of that social categorization to commit genocide; the concept of race and so-called “race science” are not really funny tbh
i would say the language of “glory” and “master races” have been pretty sufficiently captured by nazis, maybe take a look around you.

Idk, customized accents and images/identity is an accessibility thing for a lot of people, helps them have a sense of being where they’re intending to be & not lost in the content soup, which I do think a lot of decentralized projects do fall a little flat. It’s a tough line to toe!
(edit: i think i maybe misunderstood some here, but imo lemmy’s ui could use a little more clarity and polish, but ultimately like its lighter load visually)
This analysis really fucking sucks lmao. Abuse also includes controlling access to structures of dependency (housing, food, money, social webs, children), so a lot of time in the immediate term and often long term it is a MUCH better value proposition to stay with abusers in the hope that they change.
Idk this is so victim blamey and misunderstanding.
