Pop Culture Detective - probably my favourite out of the millions of video-essay makers

Not just “don’t care”, people actively mock and deride those who try to spread awareness.

I think we all know how fucked up the meat industrial complex is, we just don’t want to face it and feel guilty about the ease of access to something so nice.

Also not to mention the huuuge amounts of propganda by Big Meat

I’m genuinely asking - is this a joke comment? This is the literally the same thing Musk and Spez made for Twitter and Reddit.

People invested time into their communities here, many joining here after seeing the loads of discussions and admin posts stating their intention to defederate as little as possible. Supporting the use of defederation for creating echo chambers is silly af, I don’t wanna deal with toxic fellas but I also don’t want defederation without any legitimate basis.

People are allowed to give their opinions on discussions here, the server admins aren’t supposed to be overlords like the big social media and their CEOs - that’s the reason we all moved here.

Disappointing as fuck. You’re defedarating based on ideological differences and a guess that they won’t engage in good faith? And you’re reaching that paltry conclusion after cherry picking posts?

Not to mention the posts you’ve shared aren’t bad at all? They’re literally asking their users to engage properly in a civil manner.

Big yikes man.

Perfectly ethical:

• Content that is Inaccessible legally such as old games, abandonware, delisted media, banned stuff etc.

• Digital copies of physical content you own

• Digital Content that you already own such as ebooks or movies, but are restricted access due to DRM or single-copy rules or other dumb stuff. If I paid for something I should have the right to access it however I want (as long as I don’t distribute it)

Gray Area:

• Pirating work that benefits a publisher but not the creator. Movies, Shows, and Songs released by studios that exploited the creators of that material and not giving them a cent. This includes scientific work and research.

Oooh same. I just opened RiF the other day, and the front page is … yikes. Mostly the drama subs are trending and making it to front page - and almost all of them are ragebait fiction a la AITA, and most of the crowd seems to be teens? The teens are the majority.

It also seems the alternate subs are trending more - r/ask for r/askreddit, something called TwoHotTakes is trending more than UnpopularOpinion?

r/all is slightly better but still a crapfest lol
