Look at all those freedom sores. Little man is the ultimate patriot 💪💪💪.
- Comment on nuked from orbit 2 weeks ago:
Both sides? Good grief. Not everything has to be a you vs them. And of course there is a higher number on Twitter. They have, what, 300 million active users? And Lemmy is probably .001% of that.
- Comment on nuked from orbit 2 weeks ago:
Plenty of fascists on Lemmy. They’re just not well known billionaires.
- Comment on nuked from orbit 2 weeks ago:
Yeah the rest is fine, but bragging about being featured in a magazine is kinda cringe.
- Comment on nuked from orbit 2 weeks ago:
And you’re on Lemmy. Most people have their echo chamber of choice.
- Comment on please punish me 3 weeks ago:
These comments are exactly why Lemmy is unattractive to most people. It’s just a stupid joke/meme. Good grief.

For the record, you are obviously a very negative and angry person. Which Lemmy seems to be a somewhat breeding ground for. I would encourage to spend more time offline.

It’s important to note that while several large tech companies were found not guilty of knowingly benefiting from child labor, their supply chain still benefitted from child labor; it simply couldn’t be proven they had knowledge of what was happening.
Unfortunately, based on your previous response, I do not expect you to respond in a reasonable and mature manner, and have no desire to spend anymore time with someone like yourself. This is where we sort ways. Cheers mate.

Jesus Christ.
- Comment on Those YouTube ads everyone hates made $10.4 billion in just three months 4 weeks ago:
Yeah that’s not how this works.
It’s really not, though. Using their “good product“ ends up supporting the bad person. Most people aren’t OK with that.
You made a statement, not I. Either you have evidence that most aren’t OK with that, or you don’t.

Not OP, but your smart phone may not have been assembled with child labor, but some of the components/minerals used in its construction have been tied to child labor in the past.
Most people aren’t OK with that.
What evidence can you provide to support this, or is this simply your opinion?
- Comment on YSK in the U.S., you can buy produce directly from black farmers and they will ship it to you. It can cost less than your supermarket and will piss off people in power. 4 weeks ago:
I didn’t doubt it’s still happening somewhere; just curious how wide spread it is. I read the third link. It was interesting. I wasn’t aware the Justice department spent almost 2.5 years going after lenders.

Your comment made me think of this:

Americans always think they have the market cornered on everything. As if slavery and racism didn’t exist until the 18th century.

Do you have a recent example of someone who was denied an opportunity, that is afforded to everyone, based solely on their race?

I just created this account. I went to Lemmy.world to make a new one and it said I need to fill out an application. I laughed. Get out of here with that nonsense.
