I think in the USA’s case it will be much like South Africa, where there’s still tremendous resentment against Afrikaners even though they are an even smaller minority and no longer form government.
One example was more than enough, I get it

It’s an averaged-out view of what “the internet” thinks, with extra massaging to make sure it isn’t too offensive.
There multiple fundamental mistakes with that…
Would explaining them be more productive?
Sure, but I don’t get paid for this.
You want to be productive, take the time to explain all the ways their wrong. You don’t have time for that?
Let everyone else at least know it’s wrong.
But what you just did was completely pointless
You could have just told us you don’t know, we didn’t need an example
Who cares what AI thinks?
Like, what’s the point of the screenshot?
I have this one cousin who’s a total fuck up and didn’t graduate 7the grade, he stopped by to get some meth money and I decided to ask him about the future!
That’s what you’re doing.
No one cares AI said something dumb, and you caring makes it seem like you actually believe AI is anything more than a chatbot.
Bruh…
Socialism is economic policy…
The economic policy of those countries is socialism.
They are also democracies.
Like if I asked what kind of car you had you could say “Honda” or “a red Honda”.
Their not two different answers because one included unrelated information.
If someone asks what kind of government they have, “democratic socialism” would be correct, because only giving one of the main axises wouldn’t tell the full story.
But since we’re talking economic systems, the democratic part is superfluous
Yeah, that’s what’s going to get you.
Maybe if you loaned/rented them, but not many would go thru that hassle.
And you’d need your own locked down ecosystem they can’t crack.
On top of all that, I’m pretty sure even libraries got sued over doing this.
I remeber someone once tried to stream physical blu rays online to people for a small fee. And that didn’t work out legally either.
but if the customer wants to get the physical version of his book, I have to take back his digital version.
I mean, how can they “give back” a digital file?
Because countries that call themselves communist are just dictators lying about it…
I mean, you’re asking about two separate political axis: economy, and control.
Look at the Nordic countries and even most Western Europeans and you’ll see socialist countries that aren’t authoritarian.
Theres not a single communist country tho. So when you talk like there are, people assume you have no clue what you’re talking about about.
Like, what countries do you think are communist?
A short trimmed beard you have to do the neck and maybe cheekbones, it’s a lot of upkeep.
I think lots of guys had that type of beard pre-covid, then let it grow out. Once it’s long enough you don’t have to do the neck because it’s hidden by the rest of your beard.
And some guys never have to do cheeks because it grows in good.
Like how 20 years ago it was cool for teenagers and 20 somethings to have goatees. It took me a while to realize most were doing it because they couldn’t grow a full beard.
There’s a lot of variation in facial hair, including where it grows and how thick.
Some people’s skin also can’t handle daily trauma from razors.
Pili multigemini…
I might have fucked up the order, but it means “multiple twin hairs”. Like, where just one hair should grow out of your skin, you have multiples.
If you let it just grow, you’re fine. But if you shave it’s very easy for it to be ingrown because the “hole” the hairs come thru was only meant for one hair.
When I was in the military and had to shave every day it was horrible. I don’t know if shaving makes more grow, but I’d have stubble thicker than mechanical pencil lead, and when I’d pluck it I’d find out it was 3-5 hairs attached to the same “root”. One of those becoming ingrown is a huge hassle.
With a beard, it’ll just shed normally or come out when I comb it. The problem is when you shave and the hair bunch has to keep pushing thru the skin over and over.
Yeah, but the problem is people take it literally when it’s just an update of the analogy for Plato’s cave…
You’re taking it even more literally and saying if it’s not a direct match, it’s not a simulation.
Madden is a football simulation, even though it’s not the same as real life football
It’s not that your thinking deeper than the analogy, it’s the analogy soaring over your head while you claim it doesn’t exist because you’re looking at the ground
Life probably exists somewhere else.
That doesn’t mean they visit us in secret and there’s a conspiracy to hide it.
It’s two very different things
People don’t report shit, then complain stuff goes unmoderated.
Like, you don’t have to report every single comment a troll makes, but at least report one so a mod looks at it.
Edit:
Here’s a good example. An account I have blocked replied to me. If they go into a sub I moderate and start acting like a jackass, I’ll never know because I have them blocked.
The only way I’d see it, is if someone reported it.
It’s .ml,
I mean. So is this?
OP is just trying to stir up shit, pretty sure they’re from one of the “free speech” instances and think that means they can say anything anywhere on Lemmy.
Those people rarely comment/post to their own instances tho.
Because who wants to interact with an instance full of those people?
Sea labian?!
I’m from Heshtopia…
Hold on, I got some tasty corn I need to trade to these guys real quick.
Think globally, act locally
As said by Paulie Shore in his environmental documentary Biodome.
If everyone did that we’d be fine as a species, but not enough do. Don’t get so stressed out about the stuff we can’t change to not help change stuff you can.
Our brains don’t care about the scale, it’ll help if you do something no matter how small.
And that gives you the mental bandwidth to care about big shit again.
You have to moderate how many fucks you give or you’ll run out.
Nah.
A couple idiots made the sub. But then it got popular and most of its users were way more rational than the people who created it.
But they were still the ones in charge of it.
So when Faux News reached out for an interview, they 100% believed they represented their user base and it would be a good idea.
If I’m remembering right, the mod didn’t even announce they were doing it. The sub didn’t find out till it was aired.
And Faux portrayed the idiot that came on as a perfect representation of all users of the sub.
Engoron ruled that Trump engaged in a yearslong conspiracy with top executives at his company, the Trump Organization, to deceive banks and insurers about the size of his wealth and the true value of such properties as Trump Tower in Manhattan and his Mar-a-Lago club in Florida.
Crazy someone hasn’t heard of that, or did you forget?
You literally don’t know what’s happening bro
I always forget there was a real historical figure and assume Greensleeves is Gull’s little sister from those old Magic books.
Not sure how well they hold up, but like 25 years ago Arena and the Greensleeves trilogy seemed like the best books ever.
