I hear ya. I saw more trolls in my first 4 months on Lemmy than in 4 years on Reddit.

why did you choose that particular way of saying you are a cisgender man

The second one isn’t valid syntax in any programming language I’m familiar with. What does it do?

i’m not convinced that shadow bans are actually beneficial

why would you call it anything other than the ternary operator

tl;dr “nothing matters, everyone except me is an idiot”

truly i bow to your vast intellect

deep sigh

1. There are two choices in the United States 2024 election. No third party stands a ghost of a chance of winning. No, not even if the 30,000 people you can reach on Lemmy all vote for Timothy Greenparty.
2. A Trump victory in 2024 would not only be just as bad if not worse for the citizens of Gaza than Harris would (Harris has at least said she wants Israel to stop. Trump wants them to finish the job), but would also pose an existential threat to a large number of vulnerable Americans (trans people, immigrants, women seeking abortions).
3. Given the margins of victory in 2016 and 2020, Kamala might not win if leftists don’t vote for her.
4. Snoozing fascism for four years is better than inviting it through the door now, and buys us time to build our defenses for when it comes back.
5. Regardless of whether you do anything else to fight fascism or not, if you don’t vote, or you vote third party, you raise the chances that a Hitler admirer will enter the white house.

I’d like to focus my counterargument. Which of these statements do you disagree with?

if you’re wondering why people hate vegans, it’s because you post shit like this

But if I tell them they’re beautiful and it turns out they think I’m gross I could go to prison for harassment! Am I really just supposed to roll the dice like that?
