I just think the nature of how Lemmy came about and who created it means that it's mostly used by very serious people worried about the state of the world.

It's one of the reasons I still use Reddit honestly. Lemmy is good for politics, FOSS, and Star Trek.

Yes, Ireland or Canada. And I'd consider a move back if I saw a pattern of behaviour that I could call a sound rejection of fascism.

There's no way someone like me has that opportunity though.

The US wasn't run by Nazis in 1939 though. The same (rather popular) guy who was President in 1939 was President in 1941.

It's very possible Germany becomes run by Nazis again.

A sense of entitlement to features in a creative work not made by you is the real selfishness.

I swear some people think Westerners expressing any interest in anything Asian at all ever, or thinking an Asian country does something better than their own, is orientalism.

the majority of Americans feel the same

This is a claim that requires a source.

If they could take an Xbox One/Series SX controller and add in this order:

  • Gyroscope

  • Two extra face buttons (for fighting games)

  • a rotary dial

  • a trackball (both primarily for retro games that use them)

  • a touchpad (or even better a touch screen)

  • HD Rumble

without making the controller uncomfortable, that would be ideal to me.

Social Studies is civics and history. If you think they should be separate classes, fair enough.

Back when they were significantly cheaper than competing products, it was "you get what you pay for."

Now...just go to Wendy's.

I honestly feel like Lemmy got considerably less vitriolic toward Americans after the election.

I used to think Lemmy was too insignificant for Russian influents, but I'm not sure anymore.
