  • Honestly .world should have just blocked the most common shiposting Hexbear comms like chapotraphouse and dunk_tank as these are what most users found annoying. And I believe ther are more leftists on .world than one might think. There’s a great games comm on Hexbear too, and downvote away on the leftist game posts - Hexbear doesn’t have downvotes anyway!




  • Yep, that’s the one side. The other side is the idea that we choose to be moral or immoral and, while name calling is mean, lying and trying to deceive is immoral. It would also mean being a part of the shift from “pics or it didn’t happen” to “you can’t believe every picture you see”, mirroring what happened with news. There’s a argument that we’re there already or it’s inevitable, there’s an argument of “do anything you have to in order to win” but, while that feels true, it also feels kind of wrong to me.





  • Seriously, the movie Idiocracy is a documentary, not a comedy. It’s painful how realistic it is.

    I say this to my SO all the time, but they have “faith in humanity” for some reason.

    Especially re: how AI/robotics will be the “great equalizer”. They think eventually goods will be so cheap and we will have UBI and no one will have to work… I think, no matter how cheap goods are, the corporations will find ways to make money and/or keep people poor. They say, “If the corporations do that, people will rise up and make them.” I say, “Are you actually sure about that? We let corporations do all kinds of other nasty things without repercussions…”










  • Listen, I was around back in the days of this meme (and the others with this background - the advice wolves, the overly attached girlfriend, etc.), and they used standard meme protocol - Impact, white with black outline. The bloom effect is straight up comic sans, not srs meme stature!!

    I’m not actually mad, I’m just playing. It was just strange to see the non-standard and it threw me off.
