Wild how basically every time I click on the Libiverse button to see what a thread looks like with the lemmy.world and similar posters lemmitor in it it's sooooo uhhhh

If it's not outright reactionary stuff it's stuff like the attached image. I just don't even know what to say wowee

Idk if this is intentional behavior or the result of being massively out of touch but aaaa

Idk, if this person sees this post somehow and you rly didn't mean this in a transphobic way I rly don't wanna discourage you from trying to use more inclusive language. It's just that being so bad-"weird" (I wish I had a better word to describe this) about people's pronouns or gendered language has the same effect in the end of pushing trans people or women out of spaces as outright transphobia or misogyny :(

If someone you're speaking to on the internet doesn't have listed preferred pronouns, you should use the ungendered pronoun "they" or refer to them without using pronouns ("this person"), and only the latter one if completely necessary for some grammatical or contextual reason (people can perceive it as you not wanting to use their preferred pronouns, which is considered disrespectful if they think you know of them). It can get more complicated than that but like 95% of the time those are good guidelines and 99% of people are probably gonna be cool with you as long as it's obvious you're trying to be respectful. Idk, pronouns 101 but yeah, lol

I actually found the reply in the attached image (https://hexbear.net/comment/5418313) a couple of months ago but I was reminded of it by this:

There was this thread I posted in earlier about male friendships and how intimate men are with each other, it looked kinda empty from our end (cuz we're defedded with the worst of this internet hell-network called Lemmy) but I clicked on the Libiverse button (https://lemmy.ml/post/22904748) and I just see stuff like this inside:

Which is just.... WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU, IF SOMEONE SAID THAT TO ME, AT THE VERY LEAST I WOULD NEVER SPEAK TO THEM AGAIN AND YOU WOULD HAVE TO LITERALLY TORTURE ME TO GET ME TO MENTION IT IN A POSITIVE LIGHT

Yet this guy not only does that, but also makes sure that you know, in the context of that, he would definitely kill people "if anyone ever goes after" his friends visible-disgust

Moving on to more benign Redditor behavior:

I also don't have a word for this weird type of Redditor metaphor where they have some kind of criticism for your post but it's substanceless (who was attacking the straight men lmao, like I guess you could read it as an overgeneralization but it's not entirely wrong lol) and probably ultimately rooted in some kind of bigotry so it has to be veiled in some strange physically-based analogy

I have more slop for you but I hit the image rate limit and I'm impatient so now I switch to direct transcriptions :3

Andy@slrpnk.net, 7 updoots, 4 downdoots, 12 hrs ago

I think it’s interesting that you are comparing “men” and “girls” as opposed to either boys and girls or men and women.

No judgement. Just thought that was interesting.

Ughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, just be direct about your language-nitpicking or shut the fuck up lmao, insufferable annoying ass Redditors

Lumidaub@feddit.org, 1 updoot, 3 hours ago I say this in the gentlest way possible: you keep writing “there” when you mean “they’re” or “their” and it’s making it hard to read your posts.

Surprisingly there's only like 6 grammar correction replies in that thread, pretty low for Reddit

There's more but you get the idea lol. Such an offputting place lol, solidarity to all our non-Redditor friends who persist in using the Reddit Lemmies despite the best efforts of the cishet white techbros there to push them away, you're welcome here on hexbear-retro anytime catgirl-heart

in all fairness it's quite impressive, but the headline is just fucking hilarious... the people have been force-fed slop and spectacle for so long that they are now only capable of understanding things through the lens of Treats.

why don't we have a Baudrillard or simulation/simulacra emote

This is an old post, but I want to dunk on this idea because I've heard it in real life.

Bruh you're part of the DoD, who do you think paved the way for deregulated capitalism? You are half the reason this is happening lmao. This guy is a boomer too, so he has no excuse.

Ah yes, capitalists hate the fed, you know, the very mechanism that helped them murder and arrest everyone that tried to stop this very form of deregulated capitalism happening.

It's actually giving me a little hope to know that the ruling class has drunk their own cool aid to the point that they are doing the business thing of cutting corners and refusing to pay to train the next generation. That means when these geezers retire (and it seems the ruling class isn't doing much to keep them from retiring) they will take their expertise with them and the fed will be less competent at crushing leftist movements. In fact, not long ago I posted an excerpt from a NYT article lamenting that Trumps loud cartoon evil would inspire the rise of a more extreme left. I believe this is the ultimate reason as to why the Dem establishment hates Trump but seemingly loves compromising with the anti-Trump GoP.

Jesus, there's so many of them on this one forum. Granted, "fed" can mean a lot of things. But still, decent number of these commenters were doing engineering, aviation, etc, all important research that keeps the US war machine running.

Who could have seen this coming? It's a shame we have no examples in history of this happening in other countries to draw from, or know the exact agency that helped it happen.

So now you get to experience what most workers have been experiencing for decades and you wonder why people weren't buying the Dems telling them things are great.

And people think the Dems are the left-wing party. Imagine kissing US fed boot.

How the fuck is one of the most rapid mass extinction events a 'niche issue'? This is a literal global holocaust. Billions will be forced to flee their homes. Tens of millions will likely die due to disease, famine, drought, and be killed for the mere act of seeking refuge in the west.
