I am going to assume this is a continuation of some sort of argument you had that I have not been privy to. This instance is pro local GenAI so if you're looking for people to argue that chatgpt, gemini, grok, etc. are good then you won't find it here. We have a lot of folks get upset because they assume this instance approves of AI data centers or corporations creating and serving AI for profit and control. We don't. You are essentially yelling into an echo chamber by posing this question. The only thing we disagree on is the concept of IP. We want capitalism torn down. We want communities to band together. We want corporations to meet their ends. Perhaps you can find AI-bros on reddit to argue with.

One letter off from greatness 😮‍💨

To use disengage, you simple put the word "disengage" and link to the rule if you wish. But disengage is not meant to get the last word in.

CLM. This is one of the dedicated anti-vegan trolls we have. Being a sea lion is fine on lemmy, libs care only about being "civil" during these discussions. Lemmy.world's incivility rule is used to silence people all the time. It's no surprise this behavior is still happening, we've had this same thing happen before. Yes it is annoying and off-putting to troll people and then report them. I would say that is being shitty to others, not very genuine / welcoming / cooperative/ authentic / considerate etc. I would love for vegans to feel more comfortable on lemmy and across the fediverse, but until people give a shit this will continue to happen. Hexbear is one of the only instances I know that will ban bad-faith carnists, yes one of the evil boogeymen of the fediverse is not afraid to take a stand. Meanwhile, most instances don't care what their users do during off-instance communities. Always check someone's modlog to see if they have previously been banned for this shit, I think you will find that they have been.

Omg yeah, the system does not want disabled people married!!! Once a disabled person marries, their disability income gets cut and chore services gets cut. What a load of bs, both partners need to have an income in this stupid economy just to be able to live and a partner will absolutely burnout without support. It's the main reason I can't marry. If I marry, I essentially lose all of my benefits (also how is a limit of $3k in total assets for a married couple fair?!). Disabled people are penalized for having any type of savings or assets like life insurance ffs. Even with chore services, insurance will makeup excuses like some hypothetical person is providing free support and thus they don't give as many hours. Getting paid is a mess because of the EVV crap to "prevent fraud" aka just more spyware embedded in your phone. I've actually heard of people getting legal divorces just to get around this crap. Also people like me who can't get married but are terrified of being found to be "holding out" on marriage which can cause benefits to be cut completely. I've read articles on people having children out of wedlock (not that there is anything wrong with that) simply because of the disability welfare system. IT SUCKS.

That sounds really rough, sorry you are going through this. I am also on disability and welfare and have a caregiver partner (so my benefits meant for 1 person have to be stretched for 2), but I do not have children (let alone disabled children). I'm guessing your wife isn't able to eat the seitan after all? That sucks. Seitan is chewier than tofu or tempeh but you know your kids the best. I hope you hang in there. You are doing your best and it is appreciated. I've read about caregiver burnout before, the suffering the people around us go through is awful. Fuck the system we live in.

I could imagine vegans being upset if you weren't vegan solely because your wife and kids can't be (like they are a shield or something, idk). Modern veganism should be about harm reduction. I know someone mentioned beans but I think seitan has more protein per punch (has more than steak according to a random google, *forgot about the carb limit tho, it looks like it wouldn't go over too much but depends on the source). I don't have much experience with your family's conditions. I need a bunch of fiber or else I get severely constipated, I was shocked at how little your wife gets. Sorry you got hate for your wife and kids. It sounds like your wife was (is?) in a bad spot, I hope her recovery gets better.

*edit

That is terrible but I am not surprised. I do not trust porn made with real women in it, there isn't a way to verify the women in the videos are not being abused or coerced into making porn. Unfortunately, I have found lemmy to also be weird when it comes to certain subjects like this. It's not just trying to be sex positive or supportive of sex workers, it's more like they don't want their porn treats taken away or criticized.

I get what you're saying except I am the opposite. I used to do everything analog, but carrying and reading books became too painful. The school or public library used to be my favorite place. I used to draw a lot in analog too, but that became too painful. Nowadays if I want to read, it has to be digital or it won't be comfortable and too painful. I like being able to resize text and easily search for things. I am also getting more into audiobooks or TTS. I hate when I am asked to write with a pencil and paper, my handwriting has become shit too.

a single conviction I hold requires me to leave: That the existence of antisemitism means it is ok for a state run by zionists to steal land and use violent oppression against the people already living there. I am unable to imagine Jewish people living and forming communities anywhere else peacefully. I don't agree with the way Israel was formed or how it has operated since its violent formation, but the peaceful solution is to... continue operating a state that "defends" itself through unnecessary violence

Smh. Not only is this the wrong community, but this is just a terrible take. You should reflect on yourself and remove your brainworms.

This is the wrong community for this and completely off-topic. This community is not for rants, shower thoughts, ask lemmy type questions, unpopular opinions, etc. Please read the rules before commenting. I am going to lock this for now. If you would like to talk about specific instances of your comments or posts being removed or being banned, along with screenshots of your modlog, then that would be more acceptable.

Skill issue.
