Reddit sucks

  • Bill Clinton Became the First U.S. President to Testify Before Congress Under Oath. He Stated He Knew Nothing of Epstein's Crimes and Had Done Nothing Unlawful Himself

    Jump

  • Just like when he told the entire USA “I did not. have. sexual relations with that woman. Ms. Lewinsky…”

    But then he actually did.

  • Silicon Valley Rallies Behind Anthropic in A.I. Clash With Trump

    Jump

  • Wow. Two groups Lemmings hate battling each other and the AI tech moguls seemingly doing the right thing. Of course it is probably not entirely altruistic.

    Any Lemmings feeling some positive sentiment towards these AI execs?

  • China has sent attack drones to Iran, as it discusses ballistic missile sales

    Jump

  • Ah, China is doing the same the US was doing with Ukraine.

  • The wife, the problem, the reason [Arcade Rage]

    Jump

  • I’m gonna assume that the oopsies person has a job and is just on their day or hours off.

  • Do you still have faith in humanity?

    Jump

  • Life is cyclical

  • FIFA is now selling parking spots at LA's World Cup games, more than a mile from the stadium, for $250-$300.

    Jump

  • Attendees should be saving their money for lawyers to get out of ICE detainment.

  • Are people better off just doing what they want or do they need police watching them and forcing them to do the right thing?

    Jump

  • Lemmy mods, at least in Lemmy World, often police the will of the community. If there is a user who much of the community disagrees with, whether they are being abusive or not, they will block them just to maintain the echo chamber. If that’s the kind of society you want, then you definitely need mods.

  • Are people better off just doing what they want or do they need police watching them and forcing them to do the right thing?

    Jump

  • Depends what kind of society you want to have. People can police each other. You’ll always have bad actors in society, but you may not want to be on the frontlines of policing them. Especially when you’re talking about groups of bad actors vs. an individual. Ideally, you would live in a society where there is economic and social equality and people don’t have a need to commit crimes upon each other, but that’s a fantasy world. You could have a society brainwashed by religion but that’s not one of equality depending on who decides the rules.

    Small community, probably less need for police. The larger the population, the more difficult it becomes to manage crime.

    You might be asking the “are people inherently good or bad” question and unfortunately the answer is people are human, and humans are animals.

  • Confirmed: Cancer Free!

  • Congratulations!

  • FedEx sues US for refund on Trump's emergency tariffs

    Jump

  • Can a regular person in turn sue any companies that win a lawsuit? Maybe through a class action?

  • Contingency Folder

    Jump

  • You’re right. Sorry for hurting your feelings. Have a nice day.

  • What are some examples where the more you know about the world, the better it seems?

    Jump

  • Yup

  • Contingency Folder

    Jump

  • You’re doubling down and inferring people’s genders/identities based on their sexual preferences just to misdirect a trans-phobic dog whistle towards somebody who you disagree with. Yikes. Didn’t mean to get you so fired up. No need to hit the panic button. We’re just talking here.

  • Scientists create universal nasal spray vaccine that protects against COVID, flu, and pneumonia

    Jump

  • Intentionally spread a new variant of a virus to create demand for a new vaccine because nobody cares about COVID anymore? I’d believe it.

  • Contingency Folder

    Jump

  • Apologies, they’re not immune to transmisogyny either, in the same way cis women are not immune to misogyny. Parents are often the leading culprits in teaching or allowing misogyny to develop within their children. That’s mothers and fathers.

    When I say misogyny I’m referring to all misogyny. Trans women do not exist in a vacuum.

  • What are some examples where the more you know about the world, the better it seems?

    Jump

  • One could devolve into nihilistic ideologies and behavior or use the liberation to fuel their passions. Either way, it doesn’t matter so just do whatever.

  • Contingency Folder

    Jump

  • There are trans men too, and they’re not immune to misogyny.

  • What’s your golden rule for the internet?

    Jump

  • The internet doesn’t have to follow you around. You can decide to shut if off. Talk to friends and family. Go out in nature. Find a therapist. Sure, people should be nice, but individuals also have a responsibility to themselves to take care of their mental wellbeing.

  • Mistakes were made

    Jump

  • Haha especially in the morning, but maybe a nice surprise.
