I’m afraid you’re running too old of hardware.
It’s insanity. I’m sure there’s some rationale for it, but it seems like it could be so much simpler.
It’s a psychological consequence of polarization, which occurs when you have too many people in a social group agreeing with each other.
Groupthink elevates extreme opinions.
Hey lemmy, check out this hilarious meme I found!

I vaguely remember this video circulating, but I don’t remember the context. I believe it was a train and that’s the emergency response to seeing something on the tracks that you’re going to hit: press the emergency stop button and run toward the back of the train.
This is current problem in society that we don’t tolerate different opinion.
Exactly this. When online platforms become too homogeneous, any deviation from the typical opinions that are shared seems like a terrible, inexcusable offense that someone must do something about - thus, reinforcing the bubble.
We need to be able to disagree with each other and still get along.
Since most people are talking about the sign-up barriers, I’ll mention culture and reputation.
I love Lemmy and Mastodon, but whenever I’ve seen the fediverse brought up elsewhere, someone inevitably shuts down any curiosity by suggesting that it’s a political echo-chamber. I don’t think that’s accurate for all of it, but if that reputation is out there, we probably need to make an effort to show that there’s a broader appeal. If the average person is expecting the fediverse to be the left-wing equivalent of something like “Truth Social”, I could understand the reluctance to adopt it.
Oh no, someone please hit the emergency recursion button before this meme breaks something!
I’m glad they do these things.
It also makes me more likely to put time into Deadlock, because I know they’ll support it for a while.
I didn’t know until just now either. I actually assumed this was from that Making a Murderer documentary.
Well that’s just perfect
Unless you’re suggesting that this man was involved in that situation, there’s room to feel sympathy for both murder victims. I know I do.
This man was a teacher and coach for 16 years who only recently became a police officer, and now he’s gone. If your first reaction to this news isn’t sadness, then I don’t know what to tell you.
A lot of people can’t see past their hate.
The integrity in this post is off the charts.
Love to see it.
I don’t remember where it was originally posted (maybe tiktok?), but here’s one upload:
Sadly, no. I just saw it and thought it was great that people are still memeing about that video.
I know what I’m about.
