Well now I’m just confused.

That’s a good point. Let me rephrase then: I believe all humans are selfish by nature and so inherently are more easily prone to acting out even if it affects others negatively (intentionally). As in, there’s probably a reason why the baby is crying sometimes or there’s a reason the baby gets angry. Humans have to be taught to tame their demons because without empathy, everything would be an eye for an eye. By default, I don’t think humans have it in them to see right from wrong unless they’re taught either directly or indirectly. Something something nature and nurture something something. My 2 cents.

I’d one up that and say there shouldn’t be countries. The concept makes no sense. US propaganda always tries to make China and Russia out to be the “enemy” meanwhile when its Trump doing bad things, the world also says its the US causing problems. All of the sudden, what one or two bad people do somehow means the whole country is at fault. If we took out all the bad people and chucked them out, we could all just be people. No nations, no nothing—just people.

but we’re on Lemmy 🤔

• Modern flip phones (e.g. Samsung Fold) are stupid and gimmicky industrial design failures.
• Humans are not good by nature. They are taught to be good but even babies cry and get angry without anyone teaching them.
• The Cat in The Hat movie with Mike Myers was not as bad as critics claim and actually had good undertones patched together with modern humor that is more profound in recent times than when it was originally released. It was actually ahead of its time.
• Apple/MacOS isn’t actually a better platform and is only designed to give the impression that it is simpler even though people still have to learn how to use it.
• Adult services should be legal in all countries and the workers involved should get paid with benefits/protections just like everybody else. This is assuming capitalism cannot be removed from the picture.
• VTubers shouldn’t be showing their actual bodies. It defeats the purpose of using the moniker in the first place.
• Education should be free without any debt involved. There is legitimately no good reason why education and knowledge should be pay-walled.
• Euthanasia should be legal where the person no longer wishes to subject themselves to failing health is granted control over their body. Forcing such people to keep living is selfish and pertains cruel and unusual.
• Hollywood should not be idolized and is actually part of the problem with things being f’d up rn. There is no good reason why actors or any kind of artist should be making all that money while the rest of society gets by with the scraps we toss around while the rich get richer. The same goes for any kind of celebrity, really. I don’t even leave out sports people in this.

This took me twice as long to finish because every other point I ended up with something political. So this is pretty much the least triggering or offensive I can make my list. Good grief.

Bump. Not sure if that still works like in older forum spaces but worth a shot… also sorry if that’s against the rules. Not sure tbh

I always assume most popular artists in general are horrible people, so yeah…

When you find the answer, let me know… I’ve no idea. Been looking around my area for meetup events, other events, looked for LAN parties or tournaments in my area—and I can’t find anything anymore. The pandemic closed so much crap that might’ve been around before but now there’s like legit nothing. Used to be a part of a few Discord servers but only worth it really when they’re small but I keep seeing them close down due to drama. I don’t like getting into fandoms and I don’t want to make my hobby my life—I have other things I like doing. Like you op, idk how tf I’m supposed to meet people let alone a potential partner while a lot of the things I like don’t seem to harbor accessible spaces…

Only if you want to get filled in on how bad they were. Otherwise, nah. Just watch the critics and you’ll get the gist of it.

Coming soon to your neck of the woods… Copilot OS! Now with no Windows, only Copilot and a shitty embedded MS Edge. Everything you know as Windows is hidden behind an enforced Microsoft account which you cannot bypass or opt-out! Oh—and don’t forget—you now need a PC with 64GB DDR6789 RAM, RBG+ chipset with tiny peener cache, 2 BRAIN TRACING GPUs, SUPER SECURE BOOT, TrustClock, Lie Detector, Bio-metric reader created by NSA, and their secret time bomb tracker that will secretly ghost all your data at a moments notice and require you to purchase the subscription to ALL STAR MEGA SUPER SONIC ULTRA CLOUD DATA WAREHOUSE. Oh, but hey, at least it’s software upgradable…

Fetal position and cry

I was thinking the same thing and tbh, I have no fucking clue. I sure as hell didn’t go to law school and I’m not going to pretend I know better. If it were me that got final say, I would completely wipe out the entire 2 parties and replace all the old people that have had no real conscience in modern society for a while now. I’m sure given recent events, people would say that’s illegal but desperate times call for certain measure. Oh, also just get rid of capitalism and add in a month of federal holidays. Also flex time for work if that stills applies. All legally mandated. Also rail/trains. Can you tell yet I failed civics 101?

I’ll probably die a virgin. They won’t be able to come up with a movie about that. Lame.

It actually takes effort for me to get out of my car. Like I’m having to pull myself out.
