I don’t know enough about using Lemmy. Is there a way to identify alt accounts? Do you have to do IP tracking or something technical like that?

Imagine if there was a terrible mixup and it was you that got sent to spider heaven!

Is there some workable definition of left and right? The terms have lost all meaning to me.

It like they’re blanket terms for “everyone I agree with and everyone I disagree with”, and the ambiguity makes it really divisive.

“You are X and I hate all people who are X”. It seems bizarre that as the world has become more nuanced we’ve grown comfortable using such reductive terms.

(Not a criticism of your comment btw. I upvoted you. Just pondering this)

Sure. But what about those memories?

I was in America the other day and I saw a guy passed out on the street choking on his own vomit. Nobody stopped to help.

I guess it’s too bad he didn’t need a truck

That description reminds me of the way Guillermo del Toro described the vampires in The Strain. Makes me wonder if theres some symbolism about them he was referring to

Ooooh! I’ve got a thing for this:

My friend runs it each year. His pictures are nuts

It’s such a modern problem, clearly we need some new solutions. Maybe verified, none anonymous social media is at least part of that solution.

I’m not saying that all social media should be verified accounts. But if everything becomes bots run by EvilCorp, then there’s nothing left for the rest of us.

As far as I know there’s nothing about the Fediverse that protects us from EvilCorps bots
