Pretty often since I’ve got a large friends group who are the “lets go to x gig/party” type

Nearly a week when I had swine flu

Every virus and bacteria loved that

If you hate them just because they’re religious that’s bigotry

but there are a lot of people who use religion to justify bigoted or harmful beliefs. for those I have no tolerance and I’m not sorry 💅

A microscope

This is why I have a habit of checking the modlogs before I engage especially if the posts are weird like this

Trump supporters making shit up and constantly lying?

next you’re gonna tell me the sky is blue

Ok but imagine if you’re under a fascist government like in America rn or a genocidal goverment like Israel

You say anything bad about Israel’s actions? digital ID revoked at the literal click of a button, can’t do anything You say anything bad about ICE? digital ID revoked at the literal click of a button, can’t do anything

doesn’t help that fascism is growing in lots of countries

This just makes it easier and essentially instantaneous

my friend who also lives in the uk was unable to view a Reddit post that had a picture of dental decay because it was marked as nsfw and Reddit requires you to verify age using ID/selfie to be in compliance with the uk’s Online Safety Act to see anything marked as nsfw.

my comment was a play on the people who think this is all worth it because it might prevent kids from seeing porn

A certain subset of people: “B-but at least it stops kids seeing photos of dental decay!!!1111”

Being assertive

It’s only objectionable to fascists who are getting their sensitive little fee fees hurt

Proper fish and chips. I’ve seen American fish and chips and it’s nowhere close

• Israel is committing genocide
• Luigi
• Charlie Kirk was a terrible person and it’s stupid people are all focusing on his death when multiple children died in the gun violence he so strongly advocated for which gets comparatively very little talk

I send my friends links to posts, memes etc on Lemmy

A lot of them still think it’s a hoax/slander

The reason people are making these types of posts is because he was a blatant racist (source) who said that little kids being killed in school shootings is “worth it” (source) ridiculed disabled people in his circles (source) and said that children should witness public executions (source)

Yes he was murdered but not all murder victims are innocent saints either

I hate how some are trying to spin this as “he was killed just for having different opinions” like no, he didn’t just have “different opinions” that’s grossly oversimplifying things, he advocated for the genocide in Gaza, said kids being shot in school is “worth it” because “god given rights” (which version of the Bible had assault rifles in it?) ridiculed disabled people in his circles, and said if his 9 year old daughter got raped he wouldn’t allow her to have an abortion

All while in a position of authority and power with influence over a significant portion of people. How anyone can sympathise for him I don’t know

Not if you put “old.” before the “Reddit” into the address bar, the old UI doesn’t force you to login

At least on TOR
