- Comment on Mathematics disproves Matrix theory, says reality isn’t simulation 13 hours ago:
Layers upon layers of academic circlejerk to create useless intellectual products with a veneer of relevancy. Talk to americans & they’re all enamored with this shit, these days there is always an over-credentialed huckster attached. You simply cannot reason with these people or any other kind of crypto eugenicist AI boosters. They’re conniving little freaks
- Comment on A rant on left-wing online infighting 14 hours ago:
The voting system is uttely cancerous and feeds into the westoid preoccupation with creating winners and losers in society. It naturally creates echo chambers.
That being said, your speculation is foolish. Private intelligence contractors openly advertise that they monitor the fediverse. It would be kind of stupid not to
- Comment on A rant on left-wing online infighting 14 hours ago:
Lesser evilism is a race to the bottom. While it’s easy to tut tut about how you’re the most reasonable person in the conversation, it’s plain to people with either memory or the werewithal to study ancient history that you and Gruesome Newsome are defending positions that were considered extreme far right 20 years ago. This is called the ratchet effect. The dems bravely hold the line against the mean, critical, STERN left, who are committing the worst crime of all (demanding results), laud themselves for being less Hitlerian (sometimes), and then the next brownshirt aficionado turns the heat up further

My advice with Matrix server hosting is don’t. You’ll see

Yeah endless waves of attempted edits to tone down war crimes is the tip of the iceberg, a subject I will circle back to in the coming days. This is a bizarre comment on several levels. So is he less right-wing because he is British? It doesn’t matter if you enjoy particular sects of Ayn Rand worshippers, it makes no difference to me. The Gamergate business is the typical damage control response you see out of any site owner amenable to Nazis. Exactly like reddit admins. “We don’t take sides against the right-wing ☝️🤓 they broke site rules fair and square.” Typical bs. Nerds think everyone else is as singlemindedly gullible as them, invariably. Unfortunately the legal system demands people adhere to it

- Comment on Buying a best-of-album is like giving the artist/label money for a playlist of their songs they created 2 weeks ago:
The default way something operates and how much attention is required to change that is actually very important for the user experience. Not to mention the sound engineering that often goes into it

As a fellow Wikipedia editor I have confirmed that you are in fact the intern who kept making edits directly from the Capitol without even using a VPN.

I don’t care what that is, you post too much on here. I’m blocking and supplanting you.
- Comment on How are these ICE agents allowed to fire on protestors like this 2 weeks ago:
Yes, like German citizens during the holocaust allowed it. Like you just sat on your ass throughout Israel’s genocidal campaign and continued to reproduce the political system and lifestyle that enables neocolonialism. I would estimate 80% of the US public is totally complicit. This is obvious.
You’re still salty from your other thread, I see. That’s a mute.

- Comment on Wikipedia Says AI Is Causing a Dangerous Decline in Human Visitors 2 weeks ago:
The site engages in holocaust denial, apologia for wehrmacht, and directly collaborates with western governments. Jimmy Wales is a far-right libertarian. It might be a reliable source of information for reinforcing your own worldview, but it’s not a project to create the world’s encyclopedia. Something like that would at least be less stingy about what a “notable sandwich” is.
- Comment on 4chan faces UK ban after refusing to pay ‘stupid’ fine 2 weeks ago:
ℹ️ Outside of London, the GDP of the UK is at the level of either Missouri or Mississippi, and both so bad I don’t even need to check which one it is. When you pass a banknote back and forth with your mate that boosts GDP so the country is considered to be functionally uninhabited by experts. Britain is now widely considered to be a hoax.

Don’t they ban VPNs lol? Been years since I even thought about this place
- Comment on How are these ICE agents allowed to fire on protestors like this 2 weeks ago:
The democracy is there to waste your time. If your step out of line you will be treated like you’ve been seeing them treat black and latino communities this whole time. Why did you allow them to do that even if it was legal? A question that no doubt affronts you.

Well it’s what caused me fluctuations in vision quality and a lot of people don’t realize they can improve it with simple things like dietary choices.
- Comment on Does anyone else notice an up tick in hostility on Lemmy lately? 2 weeks ago:
This is completely delusional. Again, I got here from the All feed. I clicked on this because I was curious what people were framing as “hostility” - clearly you don’t think you are being paranoid and hostile rn, which is extremely funny. You guys failed basic reading comprehension and totally freaked out.
- Comment on Have you ever been shown the "clarity"? 2 weeks ago:
Your eyes have a sort of epidermal layer that can be damaged by all sorts of things. Viruses, dust, poor health, poor sleep. Compound that with eye strain and you have two potent but variable illnesses. Stay hydrated, eat plenty of protein, and hike frequently where your eyes will focus on distant objects.
Or maybe you are describing a schizophrenia thing, kundalini awakening, or something else I don’t have any experience with

Would be really cool if Mozilla ordered up some browser features than yet another epic service doohickey to be shoehorned into it.
Fucjing dipshits. My kobo reader default launcher still has a Pocket button on it.

Also, did you seriously not understand that “you” can be plural and nobody thinks you are posting every single meme on multiple different websites? Can you see straight right now?
- Comment on Does anyone else notice an up tick in hostility on Lemmy lately? 2 weeks ago:
You do not have a very strong case for stalking (who, the site itself?) by talking about something you federated with in a public forum. Remember, this is a website the owners willingly hooked up to another. This is like loudly complaining about a business while standing in front of it and acting like one of the customers is stalking you when they say something. It’s hard to believe you would say that sincerely. It’s more like an un-self-aware attempt at manipulation from a child. The internet moderation-attuned desperation to control conversations is palpable. I pity any coworkers you dare to express yourself to.
Do you have any other ways that you would like to describe my saying the words “rent free” as an unforgivable provocation? Let’s see what you come up with this time.
- Comment on Does anyone else notice an up tick in hostility on Lemmy lately? 2 weeks ago:
I’m browsing all and you guys are telling your daily ghost stories. I have blocked all of the meme communities where you repost stuff from reddit, so most of what comes up is this or world news, and I don’t need to explain its political bent. You have to realize this comes off as very forced and melodramatic to people on some level. Your being completely unable to take a joke is just icing on the cake.

- Comment on Believing misinformation is a “win” for some people, even when proven false 2 weeks ago:
In order to face this problem we need to move beyond individualistic causes like “people are right wing because they are pathetic incels”. I got the same results from trying to reason with people. These are serious psyops programs, and we need to remember that most people don’t listen to each other but whatever form of “television” makes them feel good. People can respond to real hardship by becoming selfish and horrible, or they can respond to having everything and never facing their own flaws by seeking out sadism for thrills, there are so many ways people’s minds can spoil. The structure of the belief system that pulls them in is what needs to be confronted, not their individual pathologies.
- Comment on How often should moderators post to grow a community? 2 weeks ago:
It’s unavoidable, but if you veer into spamming All to promote your sub, I am likely to block you or your entire community. Don’t just try to make something happen so you can be a mod of something. Start a conversation. So many comms on the wider instances are worthless clones of typical reddit categories like Wacky Memes. Nobody needs that.
- Comment on Believing misinformation is a “win” for some people, even when proven false 2 weeks ago:
Rather than focus purely on the group dynamic, I encourage people to read Madness by Justin Garson. It’s an exploration of the neuroprotective aspects of mental illness, the biological reasons why people cling to false hope or pursue delusions.
