Hey πŸ€˜πŸ˜‹

It just kind of occured to me that no one really knows that's going on, and the vast majority of posted content is just subjective perspectives meant to push and pull on the values of the reader. And I realized I get sucked in. And I feel myself getting dumber. And I see myself being more motivated by emotions and pettiness then critical thought.

I gotta checkout, and this move from Reddit seems like a good point to detox.

You better believe it! So far I've found Lemmy in general to have less know-it-alls than Reddit, which is known for being the home of enlightened contrarians.
