I don’t know about y’all, but between food quality and food prices I’m basically vegetarian nowadays. (TikTok screencap)

    You should be put in food jail. That’s food waste I cannot accept. A living being has been raised and slaughtered to accommodate you and you throw it away due to perceived funny ness? Where do you get your meat that that’s even a thing and why do you keep shopping there? Either it is all good or it is rotten. “Fresh” Meat is not sufficiently dry and solid to separate good and bad bits.

        The way lemmy comments go full snark in the meme comms (which is 90% of lemmy comms) deserves a psych research grant.

        memes are shitposts, yet half the comments are “not a meme, not a shitpost, you’re wrong!”

        chill

          I mean I don’t think it’s that deep. Can a joke not inspire conversation? Like, can a person not understand the levity, laugh, and then go “but really since you bring up the topic…”?

          For each real joke there is one person that will be offended. They often have valid points. Doesn’t mean you can’t laugh at a joke, even at that story of a black man whose school did take a trip to the cotton fields and have them pick cotton for fun. They tell it real well, too.

          We lack broad social awareness of our relationship as digital neighbors. If anyone feels a narcissistic whim to rage rant, we should have a system like captcha on 4chan, only it forces the person to make a post in order to add the comment based on sentiment analysis. Everyone should be subjected to experiencing the effort required to make a post and specifically the toll of negativity and rage comments. The narcissistic negativity leads to the situation proven by the Prisoner’s Dilemma whereby everyone is brought down and suffers stagnation, regression, or collapse. ALL negative feedback systems are incapable of producing positive outcomes. So negativity directed at strangers on the internet is just shitting on everyone and especially the targeted victim of the abuse. It reflects a person without any real independent morality or ethics, when anonymity allows them to remove the masked cosplay of real world social pressures, and reveal the true ugliness of the raw person that resides within.

      Amen. Lately we’ve started buying whole rotisserie chickens. There’s so much meat! I make sure I scrape the neck, the ribs, get all the brown meat around the spine and inside the ribcage, get that liver, there’s so much to eat. One chicken feeds the whole family of four, and then two people for lunch the next day. All for like 7 dollars.

      While I entirely support stating “something was killed for this meme/video/tik-tok” we don’t know that the other 95% of the chicken isn’t off camera.
