Why are people doing this at voting locations in the USA?
  • I mean at this point might as well go ahead and do it, "I was scared for my life, they were many and threatening" still works as an argument right? And what the fuck is the Klan gonna do about it? Retaliate by wearing white in other locations?

  • Is Lemmy an effective alternative to Reddit?
  • Not sure. I can't remember right now why I blocked dbzer0 completely, but my filters are blocking this instance. Which I guess is another side of the same coin: defederation (and allowing entire instances to be blocked) also contributes to fragmentation of communities. I had no idea the largest piracy community is on dbzer0, so I would subscribe to another piracy community on another instance, and thus split the memberships even more.

  • Is Lemmy an effective alternative to Reddit?
  • Effective? No. Considering the purpose of all internet communities is to grow and have diversity, it's not effective. Aside from the currently low number of users, the fact that you can have the same community in different instances means a community will never grow large enough. Add to that the "you're literally killing children if you're a centrist" people and all the tankies, and what you have here is a leftist circlejerk that will remain small and irelevant enough to suit its need to be an echo chamber without any actual diversity. So maybe it's effective from that point of view? Idk.

  • A lesson in humility from, yes, Coolio.
  • You're confusing prestigious with rare. Like how there are fewer albums that I've literally shat on than albums that have gone platinum, but me shitting on albums is rarer, not more prestigious.

  • men are the primary perpetrators

    the number of women who do it is such a small percentage as to be almost statistically insignificant compared to the number of men who do.

    Men commit sexual assault every single day

    barely 5% of them get prosecuted for it.

    Listen, it's very obvious we're not on the same page. You're responding to a comment thread that contains a comment literally contradicting most of your points, and you're not being rational about it. You're spouting wild claims with little regard for backing them up - it's as if în your head, they're axioms and not only do they not require proof, but invalidating them would mean the rest of the world crumbles. And I'm sure for you, that's true.

    All things considered, continuing this "discussion" brings no value to either of us. Have a good one.

  • Thread has a photo of a sign saying "not all men but always a man".

    Bringing up the statistic of female perpetrators is simply a way of deflecting the responsibility of

    No. Bringing up the statistic is a way of correcting an intentionally skewed view that is vilifying men for no fucking reason. If you're gonna be a dick about things, don't go crying when you get shafted.
