We’re the good guys, they’re the bad guys. Isn’t it?

    Sometimes the bad guys have skulls on their caps and it’s really just that black and white simple.

    Using imfglip and linking to it instead of hosting the image somewhere (Lemmy? Imgbb?) definitely makes you one of the baddies.

    Also there’s several variations of this meme that you could have used that don’t use a violent abusers image. Like a similar one with Geordi LaForge from Star Trek.

    yeah, im this 🤏 close to unsubscribing from any news related communities. the comments are mostly repetitive circle-jerks and antagonistic in-fighting. it’s really affecting my time on here.

      So many people seem to genuinely think they shouldn’t need to pay rent or work. Or that their employer should pay for their commute.

        Personally I don’t think that companies should be responsible for taking care of people… because that’s the governments responsibility. We are rapidly approaching a situation where people will be automated out of work faster than we can invent new arbitrary things for them to do. UBI is inevitable it’s just a question of when and how

    While there’s definitely some of that going on, the people I usually see complaining about this kind of thing are not interested in the fair exchange of ideas. Rather, they’re upset that one of their dumb opinions got made fun of in a public forum.

    The top part of the meme is actually a reason I like instances that don’t defederate from other instances. It allows me to see what those I disagree with and/or just don’t like might be saying/thinking at a certain period.

    it’s simple, the guys I like are the good ones, and the ones I don’t are bad.

    My favourite part of Lemmy is seeing enlightened centrists posting to Lemmy.ml thinking it’ll be sympathetic to any other ideology than socialism/communism.

    I used to feel that way but man, after the 20th time in a row that someone either calling for nuance or unity with questionable individuals ended up being some sort of malefactor with an evil agenda has me completely burnt on thinking that way. You just have to accept that some people are irredeemable and not worth dealing with, and replace them with those who are actually out there for your best interests.

    Give it enough time and every instance is going to defederate with everything that has even slightly opposing view points. We will have federated islands because people would rather silence opposing thought than discuss something like a reasonable human being.
