TIL Thiel is gay. Yay for representation?

That’s wild, I guess she was only popular in Europe? She had a bunch of big hits around 2010, like “Fuck You” which was about George Bush

The lemmy.world thread reminds me of a similar “racism on the fediverse” thread, and the occasional thread about misogyny (dismissive, uninterested and/or personally offended)

Lemmy’s markdown does actually have footnotes!^[1]

Policing just tone is how you get very polite and nicely-worded conversations about exterminating untermenschen “human biodiversity”

Arguably, spreading racism is worse when you don’t even have the excuse of believing it

EDIT: I see that the “fediverse” link for posts has been removed.

It’s still there, just not when the post/comment comes from the instance you’re on. Even though the post is to a lemmy.ml community, it’s from lemmy.world so that’s where the fediverse link goes to.

I feel like saying “I have to do this before anything else” might very well end with me doing nothing

There’s also something that looks like pink Morse code, near the top

I’m extremely confused by the fact that people are confused

… is this why some guys badly need to spread their legs while sitting?

At the same time that’s one of the bad parts of anonymous discussion. You never know if someone’s an expert or a random person guessing (on ELI5), engaging in good faith or purposely trolling, etc.

The other day I heard a random (young) girl say “what the sigma” and I had trouble keeping it together

Yeah smart kids can be very immature

Not allowing people to vote on posts from All - yes please! There’s so many cases of subreddits losing their identity because they started showing up on Reddit’s All.

And they say videogames don’t cause violence, smh

8 values has 4 different axes, instead of left/right

Unless you have mods that aren’t afraid to drive out the assholes

The correct response to my post should have been “that’s probably satire”.

Isn’t that what both replies basically say?
