Yes but when you assume someone is great they tend to fill the shoes made for you. However it’s something you should assume of yourself as well, but be kind whenever we aren’t. It’s a simple belief.

“Uber nerds” I really don’t think you understand the concept of federated social platforms. It’s not owned by a private entity. It’s owned ran and maintained by folks like you and me.

You have to be a troll, you CAN just go on the internet. R u ok?

I assume greatness for all my kin. However, nihilism runs rampant in the echo chambers of the internet.

I didn’t say lemmy, I fully agree about it all. However I am talking about in general.

You equated the most open social media platform to a private institution. That’s a new take for sure.

Notice how you described yourself as a queer rather than just saying you’re a fag? It’s just not that useful in common speak.

Also did you really just say it’s okay to use a fag in an ironic way doesn’t downplay it’s original meaning, it just perpetuates a way for those naive to get hurt. Like young autistic people will struggle with these things growing up.

I guess ladderpulling is okay once you have what works for your needs but not other’s though.

Your whole ideology seems to be at conflict with itself. I stopped caring about this conversation.

I never said don’t say it.

I’m just saying, in public spaces or sites where kids can be. I try not to say those words? They’re impressionable and it’s just not constructive, sure they have their place in jests or lustful talk.

I consider it manners.

If that’s how you get off, but not encouraged in a public space. I do it all the time. I’m not saying censor yourself around folks over this one word.

I’m saying compared to it’s history and how it can be used, it doesn’t have much space for common talk. Queer is able to be a concept that is useful to bridge slurs. It’s able to converted into something. Fag however just had a hateful history in the internet because America.

I’m talking about it completely objectively.

LGBTx communities with young folks for example are those who don’t know the value and the difficulty. It’s taken for granted. The word just shouldn’t be promoted in positive light openly, but talked about it’s history openly of talked about with those you’d like to use.

Dude why am I explaining manners and not being a bad impression on kids in private spaces/platforms.

No? Have a safety net? The more that die, the more theoretical wealth becomes available to them. Even if it’s homeless.

It reaches the same goal for them. That’s why it’s selfish and capitalistic, it works. It just sacrifices everything that isn’t I. It’s that doomer mentality, of why bother helping. world’s dog shit, so be dog shit.

Live your life one of two ways, how the world wants or how you want the world to be.

I want this world to be better, so I do what I can to make it how I wish it was. Trying to quit a weed addiction, so I do small shit like not litter butts, or pick up garbage I think might be cool, help animals in danger, do something when you can.

Just talk. Capitalists however profit from any social benefits because they’re pathetic cowards that need daddy’s wallets until they’re decrepit middle age men.

Ps. This is just something that makes me feel special and I don’t have many friends. The other day on the train an old black guy and an old white guy were talking about how the world is ass. There hasn’t been a good president since George Washington, not the time to enlist cause what are we fighting for. I was tired, but eventually asked why is now the wrong time if tomorrow is worse. There’s never a good time, because you aren’t trying. Anyways, an EVEN older black man standing next to me says, something about back in his day even hoodrats tried to help. Everyone was quite.

Sure, but fag isn’t one. Queer at least has an actual use case scenario compared to fag. Unless you’re making an effigy or smoking in certain regions. The meaning the word has no intrinsic reason to be gated if you want it to be a real word.

They aren’t feared, and they aren’t useful? Queer for example is still useful since it was embraced and used to define ambiguous or questioning folks. Fag is only useful if you’re asking me for a cig or you wanna make some effigies.

No one gets to reclaim it. You’re inciting the divisiveness, it should just not be used if it has to be censored depending on who you are. It’s archaic.

Be better.

I don’t know, no one gets called a fag and thinks on what they did. It’s just baseless aggression, rather than communicating anything of value.

If you have strong opinions, voice them like a man. Not like a beast growling.

No. Elitists are the ones who are elitists. They just chose FOSS as their high horse to be holier than though. To beat the vegan horse I’m going to use Linux users as an example.

Anytime anyone irl talks about Linux it’s not really about how great Linux has met their needs. It’s usually about how great it is that it isn’t windows.

It’s the reason lemmy is struggling, it’s mainly Linux gatekeepers and foss elitists. Along with lemmy needing a slight learning period, the community just spews toxic shit relentlessly.
