Things have gotten better and progress has been made from times past, it just seems worse now because we have more access to information. We’ve come far, and have further to go!

    Refreshing to see this instead of the usual screeching here on lemmy. I really need to stop looking at 99% of this bullshit on here.

    Atleast for 2 minutes I believed the average quality of content will not go to the shitter like reddit.

      What’s the 99% of this site that is bs to you? And why are you hanging around if it’s that terrible? Genuinely asking.

        99% of lemmy is: bashing and memeing rich, companies, conservatives. Posting outrage and celeb articles. Honestly these issues are not even on my mind a fraction as much as it is for most guys here.

        Im mainly hanging around for my preferred topics to reach a critical level so that it will be enjoyable.

        As of right now, even main lemmy sites like technology is not even about technology but this bullshit “how Musk fucked over twitter at this moment”. And look at that. Wasnt this trend taken 1:1 from reddit. I cant clean up properly because this spam keeps leaking into my feed. I cant subscribe to my only preferred communities as they are too small.

          … So it’s a lefty/progressive space and you don’t like it, so you claim that the platform is derangedor some shit.

          What do you think would happen on a platform where most people are just fed up with late-stage capitalist enshittification?

            I grant you the being left/progressive part, but I never said a word about that being an issue did I. I am heavily left leaning if you want to put a badge on it, but I have nothing to do with character assasination attempts and bashing certain people all day. That is just shitty conduct. Celeb news level of bullshittery.

              I never encountered any character assassination attempts. At least not on the memes community (where you commented, after all).

              As I said: people being fed up with late stage capitalism is a valid reason for class conscious comedy.

          sounds like you need an echo chamber, friend! Truthsocial sounds more up your alley

            Does a site like that have proper communities for things like spirituality, Zen, audio equipment and drugs?

            I think its pretty self explanatory that we are already in an echo chamber since I never fucking said anything about what my political beliefs are. The current lemmy community is kind of okay to keep up with the events in the world, but still dogshit. And I want to look at the conservative bullshittery even less.

            I have high standards.

                Nonsense. Don’t read something that was never said. Really simple. If you need to bring it up, formulate a passive, neutral question.

                That never worked out for me. People feel attacked regardless. They might not comment (in any meaningful way) as they have no way of reflecting on my argument, but they still downvote.

                As if memes need to be political, no, they don’t.

                  What does anything “need to be”? We need to eat drink and fuck. That’s about it. Trying to define things based on need is weird and misguided

                    What an odd take on what I said. Obviously you only need to die at some point if you want to go all the way, which would mean the word can not be used anymore. But that is not how people use that word, obviously. The intention behind what I wanted to say should be rather clearly not that sort of “need”.
