[Discussion] Should we defederate exploding-heads.com? (Closing arguments)
  • I don't use nazi lightly.

    Seems your whole argument mixed Republican and Nazi ideology into one when they are separate things.

    Yes someone one that thinks minority, and Jews should be scrubbed of this earth is a bad person but there are other aspects you are throwing into the mix. For example

    They foamed at the mouth when asked to do the bare minimum and wear a mask to help protect their more vulnerable countrymen during a pandemic

    This seems to leave the definition of a Nazi and fall more under people that took issue with mask. I wouldn't imagine a Nazi to say "countymen". If a Nazi lived in an all white town would they wear a mask because they valued the lives of a white person more? Again it's seems like there's a bit of a classification problem to me.

    Are all people that don't were mask Nazis?

    Are all Republicans Nazis?

    Is any right wing belief just a dog whistle for white supremacy?

    Are corporations run by neoconservatives all just Nazis who tow a progressive narrative to hide there actions but they should be banned as well?

  • they aren't living how we say they should, we should drive them out.

    Nice try at making an argument but your terrible at this

    Haha oh and your a sell proclaimed master of political reddit babbling, slap that on your resume. As well, you were just putting words in his mouth and simplifying a complex argument to the boogy man narrative in your head so I wouldnt quit your day job just yet.

  • People use nazi only because it's an easy label to hate and doesn't require any further thought.

    Say that bartender said "communist" instead of nazi or some other ideology they don't agree with.

    Also the bartender assumed the guy was a nazi. I used to work security in a very progressive US town and you would be surprised how many people go "some one just said there's is a nazi in my store get them out of here" I would walk over to find it's actually an antifa shirt with a swatica that is crossed out. the customer never took the time to actually read the guy's shirt and decided they were going to sleep better tonight because they told on them.

    Being an idiot with a knee jerk reaction to someone that is different from you isn't an antidote to live by. Some people quick to judge would even call it nazi like behavior.

  • YSK: Lemmy.ml shares the same creators as Lemmygrad.ml
  • When I first got on lemmy I joined lemmy.ml because 90% of what I used reddit for was for technology subs. ml is clearly a not about tech if you spend three minutes there and your better going to lemmy.world

  • Do you use adblock? Why? Why not?
  • Yes I use graphine OS on a Google pixel and have nearly all FOSS apps. The few apps I can't get FOSS I cut off network access to. (Alwsome graphine OS feature)

    On my home computer I use uBlock, sponserblock, and I have a piehole running.

    My ethics on this mimic that of modern multiplayer games. Games make a much larger amount of money praying those willing to dump hundreds into cosmetic items so now the game is free for me. Eg. leage, overwatch, apex, halo etc. . .

    I see other distributed content in this same way. If someone love a content creator so much that they will drop money on merch, or patron good for them. They make up the majority of the money the content creator makes anyway so I don't really lose sleep over it.

  • Literally this.

    There was only one guy posting in The Donald.

    Sh.itjust.works is overwhelmingly left leaning and is devoid of any conservative discord better yet any nazi content.

    If it takes one person speaking out of line to get defederated then we've lost the point of why to have a federated system in the first place.

    If we start losing our heads whenever someone says something then you negate the 10,000 other post and comments that are made about hobbies, interest, & questions that are helping people.

    4chan will remain a back bone of the internet because they keep this at there core. When people hear 4chan they think /pol/ but they forget all the other boards that are on the site. If lemmy doesn't want to get drowned out in a sea of "what could of been" alternatives then we have to be what reddit wasn't.

  • Is there a place to find children’s shows?
  • Bump for sure.

    I have kids and I really want to polish up jellyfin server to have more content and use an upscaler as well for some of the better cartoons.

  • What sort of journaling do you do?
  • Ive always loved ales and scotches as well. I recently just finished off a Speyside (Glenfiddich) the otherday with some friends. however we have been stuck on Islay region scotches for a while. I had a friend get me into gin recently as well. Especially traditional gin martinis. A recommend would be Aviation gin from Portland. Ryan Reynolds owns it so that is a plus or a minus depending on who you talk to but it actually is very smooth for a gin.

    You are right though we really could use a good classy drinking channel.

  • Ok you dropped a lot there. Let's dissect this

    • about my kids seeing people in drag. I'm gonna refer you back to my furry comment.

    • trans people dont touch kids. It's easy to put those words in my mouth but I never claimed or implied that. My issue lies more with a new culture in western society that overtly promotes trans ideology when much of society doesn't believe this. There's issues not just with conservatives but with feminist who don't like men winning woman of the Year and being the face of woman hood. A biological male shouldn't be the face for real women that are going though a huge fight in this country currently over there rights with there bodys. As well in left leaning ideology there is a concept of intersectionality that tells us it's ok if other cultures & countys don't identify with western ideas of LGBTQ beliefs because the west shouldn't practice imperial practices of enforcing our ways on others. However, this concept that culture is maliuble and not set in stone would apply to those in this county as well.

    • churches and molestation. 2 wrongs don't make a right. People duality of blaming others for sexual misconduct without first cleaning up there own back yard is ironic at best. I'll deffiemtly agree with you on this point.

    • i threw out a satirical response of you being a right wing bigot because you told me to go fuck my self. You your are not going to be respectful nether will I. Seething over your presumed ideas of me is the definition of ignorance. You are angry about people preciving trans people in a wrongful light with villainous stereotypes but if you do that to others then you embodying the very ideas you hate.

    • furries So someone cannot identify as a dog? Why? Someone can take estergon and get surgery to fit there precived sex why can that be done for a species? Dressing in a dog costume and dressing in drag different why? Because societies definition of what "proper clothing" should look like. How many kids spend there days pretending to be a cat, dinosaur, dog, etc... And are told no there a human. If we did that with someone about there gender they would be reprimanded for this but when it comes to identity of species or even more controversially, race? How does that differ from a different identity in gender? Call furries identities a "fucking joke" then tell me why because it sound quite hypocritical.

  • What sort of journaling do you do?
  • It actually is heavily inspired off of the everbook system. However I don't do a lot of the bullet journallying parts. I keep calanders more than to do lists.

    As for handling the pages I put them in folders besed on what they are under. One of these days I want to bind my journals into a books.

    Drinking journal is fun. Everytime I have a new entry I put a drop of what I'm drinking on the page. The thick cotton pages hold water well and drive fast. Theres a lot of complexities to the flavors when homebrewing so it's helpful to document whatever I can.

  • What sort of journaling do you do?
  • I have blank A5 sheets of southland cotton resume paper with peice A4 of card stock to act as a folder. I then use a small binder clip to keep it all together. Ive longed loved this system for 3 reasons

    • I can dispose of used scap paper or remove & file away old journal entrys or notes. This keeps my journal slim with only usefull notes.

    • I can keep my current page clipped on the front of the book and is good for when I need to take notes on the fly or standing.

    • i can custome the paper, the cover, & make templates.

    My main journals are

    • daily autobiography
    • meditation journal
    • homebrewing and drinking journal.

    I also keep logs of working out, cash, weight, & a checkbook in there as well.

  • Finally picked up RDR2 on sale and Wow
  • I would count RDR2 as the last great AAA game we will see for a long time. Every thing else is eathera rushed peice of dogshit that needs a million patchs to work or is an indie open world survival game with zero content.

  • Telling people to "go fuck themselves" as a negative is very hurtful to the asexual community and other people who express self love.

    Your obviously just a right wing nazi trying to troll so just go back to 4 chan if your gonna spend hate and tell people to stop "existing". Ovously a nazi dog whistle for violence you bigot.

  • Someone did this to Donald Trump’s star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
  • We need a classic car show, with top secret documents poring out Or a CES server showcase of how to have your own top secret email server.

  • Colleges are hands down the most inclusive and overtly supportive places of the trans people. yes there is pushback by red states but that is far from the norm. "people who actively hate them for no reason at all" hate is an easy pejorative and untrue statement to disregard peoples opinion. Most disagreeing people see trans people much like how most people see furies. They don't agree with it personally but they respect there right to do what they want. they think its not entirely right that some one should come dressed in a full furry outfit to work. They dont think its right that there kids kinder garden teacher should be explaining the life of furies and yifing to my kids and that they need to decide if they are actually human or not. I dont mind my kids learning about that stuff when there in there teens and hell i wouldn't even mind if they grew up to be a furry if its what made them happy. we just wouldnt want it overly presented to them as a kid.

  • For my transgender daughter, there are only 18 States of America
  • This is a bit blown out of proportion. Most collages in America are overwhelmingly supportive of trans people were it iseven a plus to put on a collage app. During pride month we saw monolitic neoliberal war profiteering & planet destroying corporations like Raythion, P&G, Halliburton, Amazon, J&J, etc.. all have over welming support for trans/pride issues.

    At some point when you -got through your ivy league college because you said you were trans on the app -get told by the president that he supports trans rights -come home and can find and a plethora queer media -get a job at Halliburton because they want to hire more trans people then spend your days making weapons help bomb wedding in 3rd world countries.

    You have to come to the realization that you are not part of a "resistance" anymore.

    Yes there's still some lingering issues in some red states and the more people take this overtly victim mentality the worse the pushback will become. It's gotten to the point now we're there is ever become a large rift between the gay/lesbian community and the trans community because of narratives like this.
