They don’t care consciously, but subconsciously they’ll know and remember the time and idea was defended badly whenever it comes up, especially if their knowledge on it is a blank or close to blank slate.

If you make it entertaining and thus a source of dopamine, and even better yet very consumable - you’ve got bonafide content and then people start caring, even if it’s only for lulz.

They’ll associate your views with intelligent witty dunks and the dopamine they bring and have a favourable view of them.

That’s both the model of the “Le angry feminazis!” reaction channels of the post-gamergate world and the hbomberguys of the world, especially his earliee stuff.

I forgor 💀

We had this as the firewall in our school! I remember bypassing it in so many ways with Google DNS and whatnot.

You win debates for onlookers, you’re not meant to change the perspective of the person you’re debating, you’re meant to make them look like idiots so that any lurkers who quietly agree feel bad and change their viewpoint. The left lost because they weren’t willing to do this hard enough.

Yeah it would be a great place for rightoids to hunt queers and attack them on optics

People in the current year literally believe this

Not a meteorologist but definitely aliens. Don’t get probed man.

TL:DR: Apple operates in Russia and removes anti-war based relatively good guy non-state-funded anti-Putin podcasts that Russian government doesn’t like within Russia. Afaik.

What?

Nobody is trying to be manipulative bro, the boogeymen in your head aren’t trying to be offended - you come off like an asshole that’s why they’re assuming you are.

Kamala lost. The idpol of kinder language is a trashfire and a failure because the assumption that “empathy” is a shared quality among humanity is wrong and “bloodlust” is actually far more common, while complete ignorance and anti-intellectualism and accusations of “overthinking” prevail over both as you can see in the programming.dev techbro below.

Talking about how language influences views of marginalized or minority groups is useless when most people can barely even read more than a paragraph without bitching because they never developed reading stamina.

As for those who make these conversations necessary in the first place - they will always use the meanest word they can and all this has done is fed fuel to reactionaries.

There are far more important real fights to fight, like access to HRT and surgeries for people suffering from gender dysphoria - a crippling disorder, before you metropolitan libs start going on about “trans-femmes” and “masculine gendered language”

I love Canis Canem Edit!

☝️🤓 - HR sounding ass

That’s rough. That said as a trans woman (no idea what a trans-femme is) I don’t see a problem with it in the context of “you guys”.

I use “dude” as a general exclamation towards my own also-trans gf sometimes even. Really y’all oughta chill on the language policing. If you pass people will treat you like the gender you look like, if you don’t, they won’t really, no matter how much they try, and your main issue is not passing and thus money which can fix that, not other people and their language use.

Nothing magical about it, it’s just federation, that’s not what I was referencing in my comment - my interest was more about a potential culture clash - despite what the hordes of retards replying above seems to want to frame it as.

Yeah I don’t mind em too on Mastodon because poor twitter design philosophy makes things hard to search and filter. Not on here though. Blocked.

Of course it does, everyone finds reading difficult the first time they do it. Try it again when you’ve had some rest and you may realize that your interpretation isn’t correct or what was meant at all. I just find it weird that people on mastodon would interact with Lemmy, not that they could.

Your confidence in your ignorance is what’s wrong with the world today. Blocked.

Huh? Nah I just find it weird that people on mastodon would interact with Lemmy, not that they could.

You’re a condescending shitwit for instance either doing a dunning kruger speedrun on reading comprehension or misinterpreting on purpose, probably a 12 year old tiktok child, why would anyone sub to a Lemmy community off mastodon with people like you about? I’m contemplating leaving myself. Blocked.

Huh? Nah I just find it weird that people on mastodon would interact with Lemmy, not that they could.

It’s beyond moronic to misframe my comment as being ignorant of the fediverse and then respond to it like a busted LLM with a skewed data set. Blocked.

That much I know but I guess it’s somewhat wild to me that you would subscribe to a Lemmy community off mastodon. People there seems a bit off

EDIT: Lots of morons below are taking my comment to mean that I’m surprised they could not that they would (want to) which are different words that mean different things.

Everybody and their grandma understands how federation works on here, you ain’t smart for figuring it out. All blocked.
