I just want public transit…

How very compelling

“You’re confusing actual leftists with the most successful tradition of Leftist political thought, which is highly diverse and continues to guide multiple States and movements today”

This is how these people sound. Obviously there are lots of things we can and should criticise about various ML projects. But this knee-jerk dismissal of an entire terrain of leftist thought, along with a general fetishization of failure, and refusal to engage with the complexities of governance, is intellectually lazy and unbecoming of “real leftists”.

.ml is mostly fine. I picked it, because it gives me a good view of both Hexbear and Lemmygrad, because I like seeing what the lefty-side of Lemmy is up to (turns out its a lot more posts about Beans than you might expect), while also letting me see most of the mainstream of Lemmy, which has more of a traditional old-Reddit style culture, which is nice.

I enjoy politics posting, and discussion. But it’s nice seeing other kinds of stuff too, and .ml let’s me do both.

What annoys me, and this is a Lemmy-wide problem, is people making assumptions about other’s beliefs based soley on their instance of choice. It’s not helpful, it’s not generative, and it’s a waste of everyone’s time.

Like, I don’t think you should be getting hate, just because you’re a .world user. As long as you’re asking a question in good faith, and not being a shithead, I see no reason why you posing this here should be an issue ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Hot take: I think Howl’s Moving Castle is overrated, and people only like it so much, because of the hot wizard twink.

Its plot is muddy and poorly paced, and that scene where two old women struggle to walk up the stairs for multiple minutes always felt out of place to me.

I’m from a place where our regional pizza is cut into little squares, and it’s not as difficult or messy as you’re making it out to be

I mean, people can also be casually misogynistic about the interests of middle aged women ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Thank you for the detailed answer! That’s interesting!

Because I see so many Sega Dreamcasts in my day to day life, in 2026. Man, fuck off. Have some curiosity about the world.

As it’s said when it’s anything not-China, “you have to crack a few eggs to make an omelet”.

Cross the river by feeling the stones, as it were

Woah, this is the first I’m hearing about it running windows CE. Got anything where I can read more?

Well, for one thing, compare a Dreamcast controller to an original Xbox controller

How long until someone digs up a bunch of Halo Infinite discs from a New Mexico desert?

You were executed via chemical injection?

Jokes are funny though, and Elon is the least funny person on earth

I’ll take some placebo right now.

I really liked their song off the Cruel Intentions soundtrack

The endless reposts of memes about it feel like bot behavior, more than anything else

I’m right here, baby girl

Anything that would have been pro-Putin is instead just a blacked/NTR thread from India.

Not exactly much of an improvement. But this is 4chan we’re talking about
