Oh, I agree completely. As the masses arrive conversation generally gets less nuanced and less thoughtful. Group think becomes more obvious too.

This is exactly what happened to Reddit with the Digg shitshow and then gradual public adoption. Reddit used to have thoughtful conversation and was where I could go to get interesting perspectives. Eventually enough people joined that the quality went way down.
It just sounds like anesthesia and opiates to me. I think you are worrying about nothing. I’m assuming you are on pain medication and it is not uncommon to forget things when on higher doses.
Also temporary loss of memory is not really a serious side effect of anesthesia. It is a known effect that is not dangerous to you.
It is such a great movie. Lighthearted, but with a good moral message. So many moments that reference pop culture at the time, but in a timeless way. Just all around great writing and great voice actors. I remember laughing so hard as a kid (and from there on) when Yzma turned into a kitten. So unexpectedly delightful. The movie had lots of those moments.
How reasonable of you. Critical thinking skills provide a person the ability to hold two competing notions in their head. One does not need to win out for critical thoughts of the other to remain. I get annoyed that everyone wants things to be black and white (e.g. Dems good GOP bad). It’s not that simple and we need to stop trying to reduce it to such polar language. The left also has corruption. The corruption in the left has also lead us to this precise point in history. The democratic party was heavily dishonest with primaries during the last Clinton campaign. They intentionally squashed and targeted other democratic candidates.
I wish we would stop ignoring all the problems just because it doesn’t suit a narrative that one side is good and the other is bad. It’s not that simple. One is absolutely worst than the other, but they both need each other to exist. People need to stop pretending like left shit don’t stink. It does because it is also shit. The left is not at all exempt from corruption. All humans are susceptible to corruption, especially humans in positions of power. Views taken to any extreme are almost always bad.
OP was unnecessarily rude to you. I’m waiting for my mod ban for calling them out. This place can’t be that different than reddit.
It is generally a good practice to be specific when describing vulnerabilities. Further, people tend to just read headlines and we know this. You don’t need to be a snarky jerk when someone points that out. Heaven forbid people learn something, sheesh.
And I’m sure the owners tell their family and friends about how lazy the workforce is. Probably spend hours talking about how Americans don’t know how to work hard any longer.
Thank you for clearing that up!
I’m honestly pretty sure I’ve read this on reddit and it’s a repost. Trying to remember which sub I read it on. This is not the first time in the past few weeks that I’ve read a person mysteriously trying to avoid pooping for a few days.
That’s a weird early Lemmy comment on my part.
That would be amazing, honestly. I know he is busy with the writers strike. It would be cool if he did an AMA about that on lemmy.
What’s interesting is that articles are longer to keep you on the page for ad revenue. Videos are shorter to feed you a lot of different content quickly to keep you around for ad revenue.
Really, we’re all being programmed by advertising strategies and that’s why we’re fucked.
