Does anyone remember Yogventures?
- Comment on ‘FuckLAPD.com’ Lets Anyone Use Facial Recognition to Instantly Identify Cops 3 days ago:
Putting it out there for someone to do this for cops in the UK. I can’t run infrastructure but the cops terrorise out local community and constantly refuse to identify themselves/turn off their badge cam.
- Comment on What do you think the solution to selling progressive politics to young men is ? 6 days ago:
I think I’m just gonna tag you as a misogynist with my Lemmy client and move on with my day. Maybe less demanding women debate you in the marketplace of ideas might be good for you. This is weird and beggy.
- Comment on What do you think the solution to selling progressive politics to young men is ? 6 days ago:
Are you actually trying to say you are not a misogynist while simultaneously calling a woman hysterical? Did you know that the Greek word for womb is “hystera”?

Christ - some of these replies are exactly what a lot of women talk about when we say that Lemmy has a misogyny problem.
Blokes really don’t recognize how much harder shit actually is for women, overall. It would be lovely to just sit on a bench for 5 mins without a stranger coming to chat me up, or if people would stop crediting men for my work when they don’t even ask for it.
- Comment on Is it a prison break if the prisoners have been unjustly detained? Who decides when it is a hostage rescuse situation? 1 week ago:
If you want a detailed response to this, reading Michel Foucault would probably be better than anything I could really say. He is a bit of a weirdo (putting it likely) like plenty of philosophers though.
- Comment on More Australians get their news via social media than traditional sources for first time, report finds 1 week ago:
This isn’t just because people just see it on social media. It is because Murdock has a monopoly on the press. What isn’t propaganda is clickbait nonsense and a good chunk of the public have noticed, even if that isn’t specifically the words they would use.
- Comment on New Zealand parliament gives record bans to Maori MPs over haka 3 weeks ago:
It is easy to see is in the wrong by how Peter speaks about traditional tattoos. It really demonstrates the fact that these are confident, unrepentant racists, who know they aren’t going to suffer the consequences for it, the Maori they are harassing will.
- Comment on [deleted] 3 weeks ago:
I think that is where it feels iffy to me, personally. Also, like, since you are asking this, there is a feeling of there being a power imbalance from you already so I would avoid it.
Don’t go off what people say on here. Men on here are particularly weird and misogynistic - and I say this living somewhere where I frequently get catcalled within 30 secs of stepping through the door.
- Comment on A 19-year old cis lesbian woman was beaten unconscious and robbed after she tried to use the women's restroom at a McDonald's in Carpentersville, Illinois 4 weeks ago:
This is more common still for trans people who are earlier on in their transition but the media doesn’t talk about it. This violence was intended for a trans person so why do people only care when it impacts the cis? This ultimately says that violence towards trans people is ok but that it is a problem when those who aren’t trans are impacted.
- Comment on A 19-year old cis lesbian woman was beaten unconscious and robbed after she tried to use the women's restroom at a McDonald's in Carpentersville, Illinois 4 weeks ago:
Trans comes from “on the other side” as cis comes from “on the same side”.
- Comment on Europe’s onlyfans performers can’t get justice 1 month ago:
Its down to preference but it is someone’s job at the end of the day. It takes work to create, edit and dignity. You are essentially dining and dashing from a small independent restaurant. Its the same reason why shoplifting from a chain isnt as bad.
- Comment on I installed Linux on this 8-inch mini laptop, and it's my new favorite way of computing 1 month ago:
Urgh. Why do they always have to ramble about AI?
- Comment on Google accidentally reveals details about its new Android design language, Material 3 Expressive 1 month ago:
I use a custom Material 3 theme for accessibility reasons as I am dyslexic. It was a really positive accidental side effect of the design choices. I just wish they would make it official and have it possible to use more colours that may appear to clash to their designers.

Ngl if you pirate indie porn you are scum. Most people who make it aren’t well off.
- Comment on Report: Apple CEO “cares about nothing else” Than Building Breakout AR Glasses Before Meta 1 month ago:
This is just another attempt to capture even more control over our attention - advertising everywhere. Of course Apple wants it
- Comment on PewDiePie: I installed Linux (so should you) 1 month ago:
I love my Lemmy client having the ability to label people. I already had you labeled as a Nazi apologist before opening this thread so it tracks to find you saying this here.
- Comment on Social media sites should have 'reverse' Parental Controls; where adult children can block their boomer/senior parents' accounts from viewing conspiracy and radicalizing content. 2 months ago:
I just keep their Facebook accounts logged in on my phone. Every few months, I will go onto their profiles and unlike pages like “Wear your poppy with pride” and deradicalize their algorithm. Poppies for British boomers on Facebook are like Elsa and Spiderman on YouTube for babies.
- Comment on Trans women should use toilets based on biological sex, Phillipson says 2 months ago:
Originally they came about as a means of keeping women out of public life and in the home. Buildings would often designate toilets as “Men’s” as an excuse to make them inaccessible. Its really that daft and sexist.
- Comment on Ahead of its 10 year Steam anniversary, Black Mesa has a new beta with improved Linux support and many fixes 2 months ago:
I wonder if the improved Linux support will mean fixing it on the Steam deck, where it is still very broken.
- Comment on Are there any Lemmy/Mbin instances by women for women? 2 months ago:
The admin behind it is also a man so its for (some) women by a man. Literally the opposite.
- Comment on Future generations will look at people who fear AI/Robots the same as how we today view people who fear other races/ethnicities 2 months ago:
Gen AI is, for the most part, weighted random number generation. It does not think/feel/suffer the consequences of racism.
Absolutely wild racist take.

Nah but have you ever considered that the reason that you think that there is a male loneliness epidemic is because nobody wants to hang out with insufferable misogynists?
- Comment on Are there any Lemmy/Mbin instances by women for women? 2 months ago:
This is transmisogynistic and misogynoir as well as plain old misogyny. Don’t ask me to explain. Just don’t do it.
- Comment on Are there any Lemmy/Mbin instances by women for women? 2 months ago:
It really seems like instance admins tend to do a much better job with a lot of stuff on here than the core devs. Its a shame that forking would take as much work as it would.
- Comment on Are there any Lemmy/Mbin instances by women for women? 2 months ago:
Lmao look at that douchebag’s comment history. Its arguably worse that than comment itself. God I wish there was a male loneliness epidemic because these fuckers stopped talking.

Yep. Picking the bear.
