I don’t necessarily agree with everything you wrote but you do raise a great point of this issue not getting much attention.

Because I often go back to posts I commented on, out of curiosity, and they are rarely deleted.

A game engine built on Unreal engine… ? hmm…

Porting a game into another game isn’t a thing. There’s not even a term for what this sounds like other than “dumb fuck bullshit”

I have seen this “problem” mentioned before, but in practice as far as I know, it’s not actually all that common. Most posts that get deleted are by mods afaik.

Yes, I believe the thorn had been replaced with a y when typesetting was first getting started, for some reason

Ah, yeah I saw a lot of insects that I presumed were mosquitoes… do they look similar?

I’m referring to a sentiment I see all over lemmy quite often. I don’t think you get to dismiss all those cases are politely pointing it out. Plenty of other users here notice it too, and point out how counter productive it is. I mean even just the term “liberal” is seen as a proxy for evil here. My guess is that plenty of “liberal” people don’t even conform to the views they are presumed to hold, and plenty of “liberals” are very much on board with most of the same leftist ideas as the ones claiming ideological purity over the liberals. The biggest difference is that some of the purists may know more history than some of the people they hate and claim are the problem.

Yeah, we went to Iceland ~3 years ago and we learned beforehand to bring a mosquito net for Lake Myvatn. So this headline confuses me. The article says mosquitoes were only discovered there this month, but some random blog knew about it years ago?

Fine – spraying hatred on the “liberals” won’t do that though.

What does that mean?

That’s really discouraging to read… France has had me thinking it was far closer to a utopia than most countries. I guess I shouldn’t ever get my hopes up.

There is a trend on this platform for people to be just as mad at center-left people as the fuckin actual Nazis. And it’s counterproductive as fuck

This is just a semantic trick you think you can use to stay holier than thou and also kill people who deserve it. Doesn’t work that way. Humans can only become not human by dying and becoming dust again. Semantic tricks don’t change that. I sense this conversation will go even more poorly from here so I’m blocking you for my mental health.

Yeah, I suppose. It’s just vastly more an issue with the right.

This is so stupid I don’t even know where to begin. Dehumanization is what leads to disgusting cruelty like Nazis engage in.

You do realize it’s possible to support the execution of Nazis and still think they are humans? Such a bizarre world in which that would ever need to be said out loud.

Doesn’t sound like you’ve used Facebook in the past ten years or reddit in the past couple. I quit Facebook five years ago and it was a cesspool by then. Reddit is fucking awful now too, I recently saw after the Charlie Kirk killing. I won’t be going back.

This video is private.

The person you responded to is a liar though. No one was sympathizing with Nazis in any way and they came in telling people to kill themselves. They were banned completely justifiably.
