    It’s your proposed solution that’s the problem. The answer isn’t to make Discord public, it’s to convince people to move off of it, and quite honestly, if you want people to leave Discord so badly, you’d be better off setting up separate public forums for the open source projects you are interested in on your own and convincing/bribing respected members of the Discord to post there, or copy/paste technical info there.

    I feel the same way about Lemmy so I sympathize with you, honestly.




  • Okay, let me spell this out like you are a four year old then:

    The claim is that the government has the power to stop abuse en masse and improve life for everyone, but doesn’t, because they benefit from it.

    The NSA program (which has been well-known for over a decade) is an example of that.

    I represented their arguments exactly as they were laid out and stipulated my position accurately.

    LMFAO no you’re not; you’re going off on a completely different tangent about the system as a whole instead of addressing my main claim, specifically how domestic abuse is allowed in order to maintain it, and you’re doing it because you perceive any negative talk against the system as an existential threat to it.

    You only address a claim literally everyone else on Lemmy makes: that corporations actively exploit and abuse their workers, and you label it as conspiracy shit.

    And you do it because I’m right and you know it, people are realizing it, and that inconveniences and threatens you.

    You are exactly the kind of motherfucker who keeps the slave racket going. Because fuck them kids. Fuck them abuse victims. You ordered your Big Mac five minutes ago and you want it NOW









  • Honestly, the one thing people should be disputing about post-apocalypse games is why it is people would even be scraping by to survive in the first place. We’re social animals and would band together out of necessity, and knowledge and high technology wouldn’t simply go away simply because half the population turned into zombies and started eating everybody else.

    Just hike to the nearest town or something. Read a book. Build a cistern and some aqueducts or something. People have literally been doing just that for thousands of years so why would it be hard for people to do it in modern times?





  • It’s not really fun escapism when it blatantly throws out verisimilitude for the sake of presenting the same trite, cliche propagandized rehashed garbage to us over and over and over again.

    I’ll take the realistic apocalypse movie that actually gets the little things right. The little things are what helps sell the big things, like, well, zombies.
