Glossy bean
I’ve touched it
I’ve probably licked it
I don’t want to care about politics, but politics keep trying to bust in my door and want to shove itself down my throat like a possessed dildo, so I only be political as self defence.
Your encounters with dildos is much different than mine
Politics of state and business, poor job market prospects, these are the things that we need to solve if we are to truly maximize beantime or beanmaxxing if you will
I have already watched the beanmaxing video
Because the sole nature of Lemmy is political. The whole reason it exists is political. People want to move away from tech oligarchs and take control of their own spaces, of their data. Rotting on Reddit while all your data is being harvested and your interactions get turned into shareholder value is very convenient. Being on Lemmy is inconvenient (although it has become less so over the last year). So if you’re willing to ditch a very convenient platform because of your beliefs, and move to a platform that aligns more closely with said beliefs, then it’s fairly obvious why said platform is so political in nature.
This.
Just from the features and the convenience, Reddit is better. It’s bigger, it’s got more content, it’s easier, it’s more stable (or at least used to be). You don’t have to worry about your instance going under or anything like that.
The reason for the devs to invest their time to make lemmy and the apps and for admins to invest money and time into hosting and running the instances and for users to use this instead of Reddit is mainly the politics of wanting to have your own space with your own data.
everyone here is a leftist nerd, and the united states is at risk of falling under right-wing fascism.
Even beans are political, mate.
Especially soy beans
Lemmy has always been this way AFAIK, but let’s be honest if there was ever a time that people need to be be aware of politics it’s now.
Where are the jeans and horses?
Ed Sheeran riding a horse in Britney’s denim dress. His hair is shaped like Saddam. His eyes are two giant beans.
dude, a lot of us have been banned from reddit for being overtly leftist. its a major reason lemmy even exists.
Reminding that “…there are currently no major left-wing political parties in the country.” you Americans have far right or right wing parties, haha losers
Life is political, get involved or get out of the way.
Everything is inherently political and engaging with the world around us is more healthy in the long run.
Always hated the subtitles of Jeremy’s line here. It’s all it italics except the word “like”. Suggesting either every word has emphasis except that one word, which is nonsense. Or that the emphasis is on “like”, which doesn’t work either in this context. Plus I remember this episode, and I’m pretty sure he put emphasis on “I” and “this”…
Goddamnit. I’m gonna get sooo many reports from this post.
The worst part for me? Fuckin beans.
