Awww. Image broke. Just me, or does anyone have a reupload?

Bless up Lemming, I’ll hit you up if things become desperate.

Deal. I stopped pledging “allegiance to the flag” over a decade ago when I realized this wasn’t a nation with “liberty and justice for all”. I’ll also bring some trans baddie friends with me.

But like, could I come visit if I need to seek asylum? That would be different than tourism, right? I’m not really happy or comfortable with the situation here, nor have my efforts been able to change other people’s views (e.g. make them think about consequences).

Ohhh, such a relaxed bun. Very much at odds with how violent and energetic I’m sure they actually are.

Ty, ty. No talking about pets without paying the pic tax. One back for you.

;_; I can’t see any kitty pic

Happy you could join! You’ll find that not only are bans much more reasonable, but conversations are frequently downright pleasant. Aditionally, there are communities built just for calling out mods that abuse power or are heavily biased. The system here is working much better from a user perspective.

Like what? I get wishing things never got to the stage they are at, but what do you wish a bunch of unorganized hackers did earlier? Genuinely curious as I’m not good enough at coding to think of any creative “solutions”

I love being able to read the tour guide at my own pace rather than have it said to me. These structures are great.

I prefer reading fiction myself. That’s partly why I keep upvoting posts in this community.

You are correct. The “leaders” don’t. The majority of Americans are also disillusioned into hating people not responsible at all for the struggles they have to face. The soverignty of nations should be respected, but that hasn’t, historically, been the American way either.

I was devastated from the most recent US election as I learned a similarity between all political views is hating women. On another note, it’s been 17 hours and I am immune to sarcasm; NoT aLL mEn

Femmy? Might be a bit obvious, but that’s how I roll.

Yeah. You never know which type of American you have, but I’d guess the correlation of being on Lemmy is more likely someone that did not vote for fascism. I definitely understand citizens of other countries being bitter and/or upset.

Thanks for the transparency. As I’ve stated in other comments, I am American and I typically have better interactions here than on other social media sites. I really like seeing which community the individual is from and seeing the upvote/downvote ratio. If there is baseless criticism, most of the time it is either dropped when I ask them for more detail, or an actual discussion springs out of it. Finally, I’m a big fan of sh.itjust.works and happy to be here. I wouldn’t have any judgement to give; the internet is harder to tolerate everywhere as more users become bitter and/or hateful.

Good luck. The last Arch user I interacted with roleplayed a Tsundere femboy in the general chat of a 3000 member Discord. Hopefully you can rise above the very low bar.

Any solace I’ve found comes from engaging in the community around me. Focusing on local instead of national/global

Ohh. I remember reading thet before the removal and ban. Idk of any other reason to be butthurt over that comment then if they are a tankie. Especially with all the other stuff that was called out. That was the, “what do you think is modern day snake oil” right?
