No, I think people are more than just themselves, you need other people, you need community (and dick, dick works too)

Even if they were to, there is still the deep biosphere

The simple fact that there is an unnecessary amount of control given to a single person over the information and communication you share and consume automatically makes the environment this person controls an unsafe environment for free speech. Yes, there should be moderation, but it should by moderation by the community, not the person on the top of the unnecessary hierarchy. Centralized social media only serves its owners, it exists for no other reason.

The things being said here are a good start, but you cant do anything without other people. And if you and your community dont like the reccomended actions here? Make up your own plan with them! We cant just wait until we have the perfect plan to stop fascism and fix alll the world’s issues. We need to start working together now.

What can you do as an individual? not much. A community? Now we’re talking.

Find people to fight fascism with.

Yeah, them saying this really just means that they dont need location data to spt on you

Thanks for the suggestion… NSA?

True, although usually when people talk about punishing pedophiles they mean punishing people who have done terrible things to children (and in this case, Republicans are talking about neither, the main objective of this is to target queer people)

Just because they are calling it community notes doesnt mean that Facebooks notes would work the same way as Xitters notes.

“not giving me money is virtue signaling” damn, guess i gotta give him money

I view “guys” and “dudes” as gender neutral but when its directed towards me i start feeling like shit

X AE A 12, apparently.

People in politics are so “civil” they normalize hatred, lies, and fascist ideas. Normalizing hatred and fascism only further fascist ideology, which slowly, piece by piece, takes over the right.

Our systems and hierarchies do often support the oligarchy, but that does not mean every single individual supports the oligarchy, or that every single thing our systems do are meant to advance the goals of the ultra rich. Sometimes individuals who participate in these systems do malicious compliance, sometimes they don’t comply at all.

In this case there could be someone high-up who is empathetic(or a group of empathetic people unaware of each other, their actions adding up) whose decisions led to this happening, or this could have just been a dumb decision, who knows.

This is really helpful, SearxNG looks pretty good, might also check out Kagi

kyle hill is interesting to me because when he is making videos about nuclear it is either the most terrifying nuclear horror story yet or facts and statistics about how safe nuclear is. I personally believe nuclear to be a super safe and efficient way to create energy, its just something I noticed. Makes me think about how common coal accidents are and how little they are covered compared to something supposedly scary like nuclear.

The dangerous radiation disappears much much sooner then that. And if its millions of years, the local life would adapt, more then it already has. Interesting related info: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radiotrophic_fungus

Yeah, we create the rules that decide whether or not someone is autistic, and we decide what is viewed as “weird” (honestly, everyone is weird, if you were perfectly average in every way, you would actually, in a way, be weird)

Honestly i feel like most of lemmy is left-leaning at least from what i’ve seen
