yes. that’s precisely what it is.

but the problem is… they won’t stay in their echo chamber, and they go rabid when fresh meat accidentally posts over there.

so you get them on other instances and communities posting their crazypants nonsense and harassing, insulting, and downvoting other users who dare to not be like them.

good faith isn’t allowed on .ml.

they won’t change. all you can do is block/avoid the communities and users there.

that’s hilariously accurate.

they brigade constantly whenever they are criticized.

yes, i’m a normie and i’m here to hurt you by existing and reminding you non furry people exist.

I’m not you. My feed is different. When I browse /all and sort by new that is what I see.

When I don’t use all, I don’t see it…

no decent human being would ever have different opinions or political views than me. or personal experience that might challenge my own.

that would make them indecent! and we know what to do with indent people.

you forget that stuff shows up in your feed.

i have mosted in asklemmy.ml, not realizing it was not asklemmy.world, and yeah people go insane if you post the wrong ‘take’ to the ‘wrong’ instance.

and if you want a better time here, block all three of those instances. along with most of the blahj ones

you didn’t get the memo? the personal is political now. everything that you don’t do to fight oppression/the system/the man/patriarchy/your parents is pro-fascism now.

including buying toilet paper. did you know fascists also wipe their asses? if you don’t want to be facist you gotta use a bidet now.

it only blocks you from seeing their content on their instance, not from them coming into other instances and harassing you.

welcome to the club.

don’t worry, they will follow you around for awhile, because they have nothing better to do than harass well-intentioned people.

my favorite is when they tell you their sources from state operated media are the truth…

pretty much. they think anyone who isn’t as delusional as they must be destroyed.

The mayor of my city is actively campaigning for going back to 5 day full workweeks for all office workers, under the bullshit guise of ‘support small business’. She’s a corporate shrill and has pivoted to because she wants to run for higher office and needs their campaign donations.

No, the company that owns all the business downtown, are giant mega real estate corps. That’s who you are trying to benefit. My own company is downsizing our lease to 33% of our pre-pandemic square footage, because it makes no sense and our productivity is through the roof compared to being stuck in a open-office plan with people distracting each other for 50% of the work day.

I work less, and I get way more done because my time is much more focused, and more gets documented. Unlike in-office where more than half my daily workload was invisible because it was face to face/verbal interactions that never got recognized because they were not digitally recorded.

it will change what you eat and how you eat and how frequently you do it.

it rose compared to last month, when it was 3.3

that’s almost a 15% jump

yeah and people are mentalyl unhealthy because they are living in their little rabbit holes of siloed information.

the amount of willful, deliberate, ‘i’m sticking my head in the sand and you can’t stop me from doing it’ crap I see IRL and here on fediverse blows my mind. It wasn’t like this a decade ago. a decade ago people would be curious about your differences and at least ask you questions, now everyone is apparently some expert genius with psychic powers who knows ‘everything they need to know’ about you based on what shirt you wore today.

stock market is a forecast of projected future profits.

if investors thing a companies choices will make profits go up next year, they buy. if they don’t, they sell.

who needs reality when you have anarchism or marxism to bleat on about and make yourself feel smart and big?

i meet people with similar education, job, politics, etc.

and they are living in a totally different reality from me. and they are straight up hostile to my reality because it isn’t a mirror reflection of their own.

yeah, all the gaming subs here are pro-steam and anti-console.
