I like being federated
  • I'm just tired of every post on the frontpage being about the federation itself. I don't care if some lib occasionally posts a bad take. There have been many cool people from other instances.

    And I'm getting annoyed by hexbear's obsessive need to "dunk" on lemmy users, it's approaching le epic reddit army levels. And the sanctimonious rationalizing of it, as if it wasn't just a fun tribal activity but actually totally fighting the good fight.

    Who fucking cares if blahaj or whatever think we're evil tankies who run over people with tanks in our free time? I'm tired of every post on the frontpage being hexbears patting each other on the back for sending PPB to some liberal. I don't mind federation itself, but I hate how its melting hexbear brains.

  • Body pillows actually rule. They're so fkn comfy if you sleep on your side. They get a bad rep because of weird nerds putting their waifus on them, but unironically, I recommend them 10/10.

    Now sure, mine also has an anime waifu on it, but regardless, I-

  • @Civility@hexbear.net forgive me

    Edit: LMAO they replied and included this line:

    (r-slur) with no business sense and his buzzwords: “Abhorrent” “corporate overlords” “ boot licker” meanwhile 98% of them do it lol. It’s not unusual

    My man just saw the word "abhorrent" for the first time lmaoooo this isn't even my first language bozo. Link if you have nothing better to do

    I'm not gonna reply again, it's a gibberish response and my time would be better spent arguing with my labrador retriever. This person believes finance capitalism is an unchangeable fact of nature, all their arguments boil down to "well everyone's doing it, so it's moral and smart actually and not greedy". Tell them to think outside of that pathetically narrow box and they'll throw a temper tantrum before going back to rimming their boss' asshole. Too much of a coward to stop hiding behind their "that's just how it is" rhetoric and actually question why things are the way they are.

  • Not very legible.

    Original comment:

    It’s not greed to set a price at the highest point a company thinks it will sell for. You don’t have to buy it. Prove them wrong yourself. You guys deem it greed cuz instead of making the money for a product you want you sit and complain on Reddit for longer than it would take to earn the money.

    Go make more money if this is too expensive nothing is stopping you. If you think paying 25 for 100 hours of entertainment sucks you will literally have the worst life lol. Are you gonna live the rest of it not entertaining yourself

    Best system humans have ever created thus far.

    My reply:

    Good grief, you're such a pathetic fucking bootlicker. You're a freaking peasant like the rest of us, you'll never be a billionaire no matter how much you defend their abhorrent business practices, but you're too much of a worm to even do the bare minimum of complaining on reddit. No, not only are you too much of a slimy little earthworm to complain, you defend your corporate overlords on here, you defend them squeezing as much profit out of the world as possible so they can buy their 3rd and 4th yacht and fuck minors on Epstein island, and then you call the system that enables them to do that the "best system humans have ever created".

    These people could literally grab you by your ears and piss down your throat and you would thank them for it. Stop hiding behind this "that's just how the world works" mentality and question the status quo for once in your life. Corporations maximizing profits at all costs is not a law of nature, it's not an unchangeable fact of life, it's the result of an economic system that was created and can be changed by people, unfortunately bootlickers like you would rather take a bullet for their corporate overlords before letting any kind of systemic change happen.

    I know it's a dumb reddit argument but it felt cathartic to write

  • Got very pissed off at a bootlicker on reddit and want to post my rant in here because the comment will probably be deleted cause of namecalling or some dumb shit

  • Saw the last 45 minutes of GotG 3 and it really feels like it's just throwing moment after moment at you, but like, not in a good way. Like it's ticking off all the boxes on a list.

    It's the McDonald's of cinema. Does it do the job? Yeah. I'm still entertained by all the funky, stylized action scenes and even the AI-generated emotional scenes where they all talk about their feelings and how friendship is the most important thing or whatever, even though I've seen it a million times it still kinda gets me. But it's like you consume it and it just exits your brain right away. It's too much too quickly for anything to stick.

    The only thing I really can't take seriously anymore is "heroic sacrifice" scenes. I can't buy into those at all, they never feel earned or authentic. And my standards for "authenticity" are very low when it comes to Marvel movies. I mean, the new GotG had a freakin' telekinetic dog and in the big action scene someone says "He's a very good dog" and I can put up with that kind of pandering, I can turn off my brain and go "hahaha good doggo" if I have to, but those stupid sacrifice scenes with the big orchestra soundtrack, nah, I don't buy it.

  • I have never looked at lemmy. I will never look at lemmy.

    Also kinda over all the posts that are just "The libs over at lemmy called us tankies/putin shills again". Or the threads where its just 1 lemmy user comment and 50 hexbears calling that one guy a lib.

    Seriously, who the fuck cares what lemmy users say about hexbear???

    I think dogpiling is cringe anyway, let's bring back downvotes but only for people posting via lemmy, so we can just downvote them before there's 50 replies to a single dumb comment every thread. It's 3 am I can't even tell if my own suggestion is a serious one.

  • Iraq, Libya, Ukraine and soon China, Liberals will always fall for it
  • Ah yes the notable fascists of Ukraine 🙄

    Is Putin also a fascist or are you just a full on tankie?

    Yes to all 3 big-cool

  • I can’t believe the Irish did this
  • british intelligence has recently published some of their findings that linked this feminization plot to the infamous irish "gerudo" group, which lines up well with what their government proclaimed with the controversial 34th ruling
