  • yeah I've been chewing on it for a minute and I can't really think of anything other than like you said spamming it under every post makes it obvious that it's a troll and I agree that definitely deserves a ban

    [Off-Topic] Should we purge doomers?

    Jump

  • from this link.

    "Imagine for a moment that you could truly embody the “good vibes only” mantra. No single negative thought is allowed to enter your mind and you are feeling nothing but bliss – sounds pretty great right? And then, you hear about your dog getting sick and… you feel nothing but happiness? Or perhaps, you hear of the passing of a loved one, or read about a tragedy occurring in the world. These are just a few examples where “good vibes only” starts to feel unproductive and unhelpful."

    further reading if you're interested.

    TL;DR: if you ignore the reality of upsetting things in favor of good vibes, it's not hope it's gaslighting. hope comes from acknowledging upsetting things and keeping a positive mindset despite them.

  • I think it needs to be defined with more specificity than "blatant doomerism", both to make it more clear when to enforce rather than "I know it when I see it" and also to prevent unfair bans to people talking about something that's a bummer in good faith.

    I don't think an environment of toxic positivity is healthy and I fear such a broad definition could foster one, i.e. "oh I can't say that or I might get banned"

    on the whole though I like the idea of an additional rule added of the sort. it doesn't seem like the person(s) in the first examples given was saying anything in good faith.

    I also think the punishment should give a lot of grace, like first a warning and comment removal before any ban.

    edit: a word

  • I never took it as hate, just an acknowledgement of the simplicity of thinking about your digital watch and going "you know what? this thing is pretty neat!"

    that being said it's been a while since I read the books so maybe I'm misremembering some serious digital watch hate from later on.

    personally I think my Casio is pretty neat and I also am unhappy for pretty much of the time, largely due to the movements of small green pieces of paper :)

  • A+ ⭐ 🏆

    that last line especially is beautiful, sounds like it was written by Adams himself.

    have you read the short story The Libertarian Police Department? I've always thought the author channeled Adams' ghost for that one :)

  • Far out in the uncharted backwaters of the unfashionable end of the western spiral arm of the Galaxy lies a small unregarded yellow sun.

    Orbiting this at a distance of roughly ninety-two million miles is an utterly insignificant little blue green planet whose ape- descended life forms are so amazingly primitive that they still think digital watches are a pretty neat idea.

    This planet has – or rather had – a problem, which was this: most of the people living on it were unhappy for pretty much of the time. Many solutions were suggested for this problem, but most of these were largely concerned with the movements of small green pieces of paper, which is odd because on the whole it wasn’t the small green pieces of paper that were unhappy.

    And so the problem remained; lots of the people were mean, and most of them were miserable, even the ones with digital watches.

  • you're severely confused. you are so far outside the Overton window of this 'verse that you don't even share familiar vernacular. liberals/Democrats are dirty words to most people here because they're too conservative. most of us are leftists socialists anarchists and communists (fuck tankies)

  • apparently the stage production of Ben-Hur had it in 1899 and "Historians have instead determined that the gesture originated from Jacques-Louis David's 1784 painting Oath of the Horatii, which displayed a raised arm salutatory gesture in an ancient Roman setting." - Wikipedia

    but your point stands Romans didn't do that shit.
