I bet it will be related, especially because of the stench that wafts off of "the problem is both sides are too extreme" Enlightened Centrists that already showed up here, and few things get them more defensive and tribalistic than vegans existing, let alone stating (correctly) the cost and consequences of industrialized meat production.
Pronouns are a strong contender, love how ours show up even when we go to other communities.
"actually its authoritarian towards everyone else, you tankie fucks!
have you considered what YOU are doing might affect MEEE*
*note: pronouns definitely only affect the person setting them, like most of the things that apparentely are such a massive issue
I don't know if this fits but I think a lot of fediverse users think that America is "fundamentally good" and just "makes mistakes from time to to time" or "the system just is not working correctly and just a couple small tweaks will make it work correctly again"
Saw someone comment on a post about China experiencing .5% deflation.
Democracy is always superior to authoritarianism, long term. Regulated capitalism is always superior to state owned and directed business.
There was also a Tiananmen square/Uyghur comment in the same thread.
Because the rich can do whatever the fuck they want with very little chance of actual consequences and libs believe that that is a just system.
Have you considered that in America if you don't want to be a slave you can simply be born rich?
Lol that just made me think of something. All the Incan characters in that movie are voiced by white ppl afaik
It's a guilty favorite of mine and that's a big part of it. Unlike some Hexbears I can accept criticism of the things I enjoyed.
Oh yeah, I have a soft spot for it too, I just was surprised that I had never thought about the cast before. It was commonplace at the time and that was only in the 2000s. Wild.
The Lion King was a childhood favorite for me and that's way more problematic than The Emperors New Groove lol (The hyenas did nothing wrong)
I don't know if this fits but I think a lot of fediverse users think that America is "fundamentally good"
Yes, that fits.
"makes mistakes from time to to time"
DAE A FEW BAD APPLES LET'S IGNORE THE REST OF THE SAYING AND WHAT ROTTING APPLES BIOLOGICALLY DO TO ADJACENT APPLES AS THEY ROT
"the system just is not working correctly and just a couple small tweaks will make it work correctly again"
SOME BILLIONAIRES ARE GOOD ONES THAT MAKE ELECTRIC VEHICLES POPULAR DID YOU THINK ABOUT THAT
Ummm excuse me sweaty, America makes mistakes but if you don't support it over [insert boogyman of the week] then you're a Russian/Chinese bot. How much s Putin paying you? 1000+ social credit!
The soldier struggle session will return im sure, as for solved i think the outdoor cat one if someone brings it as a joke its posible so lemmy libs maybe take it seriously and restarted it again
BUT WHAT IF I WANT TO MOVE SOME ROCKS AND FUCK UP THE ECOSYSTEM NATIVE AMERICANS DID THAT TOO HUH DID YOU THINK ABOUT THAT HUH?
ahem
FUCK THE TROOPS IF YOU SIGNED UP TO KILL PEOPLE FOR A CHALLENGER I HOPE THEY BLOW YOUR LEGS OFF WITH A GRENADE IN BASIC
Yes and I also hope that if youre born to rich /upper middle class parents youre also sent to a gulug even if you are the one true leftist
Vegans, China, Ukraine, or our zero tolerance of bad faith liberals "omg censorship! You guys seriously ban people for saying the r-word?!"
The safe bet (or maybe even the free square on the bingo card) is some sort of overreaction to treat criticism.
I'll add to my own bet: I bet that it will start because of the content warning policy for meat-related food posts and some DAE LE EPIC BACON bazinga will get mad about content warnings existing for their treats.
There will be many attempts at starting one, personally I think most of our settled issues will stay settled since we are still the largest and most active federation (is that what we call our group?). I don't know what struggle sessions to come we haven't had yet, I don't think we've had a "separate art from their artists" in a little while so I bet its going to be that since I don't remember a resolution. I'm gonna lead with "how can you still listen to Ye after that Alex Jones episode?" and its gonna spark off.
since we are still the largest and most active federation (is that what we call our group?)
Instance, I think
I'm gonna lead with "how can you still listen to Ye after that Alex Jones episode?"
The nazi cult leader with the god complex said something new and worse? Tell me more.
I mean that was the point where he told the world he "love[d] Hitler," a line not even Jones would cross. He hasn't really improved since
we aren't actually the largest but we dominate in terms of post and comment volume.
seems to me like so far you can kiss any notions of critical support for anything goodbye
Itll be back in due time, the s will either block our feeds or learn. There will be some fun teething pains along the way though
Give me your tired, your poor, your unwashed asses yearning to breathe free.
@Comp4 the Failed States of America is indeed unwashed ass nation
It took them all
Why @ me about this one? I never, ever, sided with the "bidets are bourgeoisie decadence" camp.
That user is posting from mastodon, thats how replies from mastodon are shown on lemmy
@replaceable @UlyssesT all replies on my platform begin with @ ing prior posters in the thread
@replaceable @UlyssesT federation is very cool but many elements of the interoperability still need a lot of work. Still neat that it functions at all. On my end if I want to subscribe to a comm here every single post goes into my home feed so it becomes a bit of a firehose. I don't mind but it seems to discourage some people
There is... probably maybe a way to silo these things off but I am dumb and lazy
i think it works like twitter?
so auto pings the op + whoever they're replying to?Yes, it is a lot like Twitter. Let's see what happens if I manually delete those @s... Does this work?
Was outdoor cats ever "solved"?
EDIT: One that I would like to revive because it's like mainlining pure, uncut hexbear weirdness is "moving and stacking rocks in streams"
Outdoor cats are like Trotsky. White, black, and red all over
Okay actually realistically we are going to be consumed by debates on the merits of voting and "strategic harm reduction"
Struggle sessions don't get solved they go dormant and will always crop back up even without federation. Mods can do what they can to suppress them but there will always be a few threads that slip through the crack.
It's unlikely but it would be quite funny if there was another Settlers struggle session
