Zinda. His face black, his eyes red.

It’s bullshit that you claim it’s a higher percentage than the one I provided, but don’t actually know what it is? Look man, if you’re just giving your opinion, that’s fine. Just say so.

Thanks? By making that statement I’m sure you know the exact percentage. Feel free to provide it. I’d be interested to know.

Both sides? Good grief. Not everything has to be a you vs them. And of course there is a higher number on Twitter. They have, what, 300 million active users? And Lemmy is probably .001% of that.

Plenty of fascists on Lemmy. They’re just not well known billionaires.

Yeah the rest is fine, but bragging about being featured in a magazine is kinda cringe.

And you’re on Lemmy. Most people have their echo chamber of choice.

This is Democracy Manifest.

I was never a huge fan; more of a passing interest, but I also dropped off after black/white.

I mean, recognizing that I say this with some jest, Pokémon isn’t all that different from dog fighting. Capturing innocent animals and forcing them to fight each other for your entertainment.

Are people really buying into this 51st state nonsense? It’s never going to happen. Orange man is a legit professional shit talker. Damn near everything he states shouldn’t be taken seriously. I’ve easily learned to ignore his words and simply focus on his actions.

I mean, come on people, it’s current year, not past year.

The first Sonic game. At the main screen, up, down, left, right, hold A, press start. You could jump to the final zone, if you were so inclined.

For the record, you are obviously a very negative and angry person. Which Lemmy seems to be a somewhat breeding ground for. I would encourage to spend more time offline.

It’s important to note that while several large tech companies were found not guilty of knowingly benefiting from child labor, their supply chain still benefitted from child labor; it simply couldn’t be proven they had knowledge of what was happening.

Unfortunately, based on your previous response, I do not expect you to respond in a reasonable and mature manner, and have no desire to spend anymore time with someone like yourself. This is where we sort ways. Cheers mate.

Jesus Christ.

Yeah that’s not how this works.

It’s really not, though. Using their “good product“ ends up supporting the bad person. Most people aren’t OK with that.

You made a statement, not I. Either you have evidence that most aren’t OK with that, or you don’t.

Not OP, but your smart phone may not have been assembled with child labor, but some of the components/minerals used in its construction have been tied to child labor in the past.

Most people aren’t OK with that.

What evidence can you provide to support this, or is this simply your opinion?

So I pulled out my robe and wizard hat.

How does one not feel safe on a digital platform? Even if someone physically threatens you, nothing is going to happen to you. And you can block/mute people you don’t care for.

I still use it. For that which I engage, or who I engage with, it hasn’t changed for me. Almost 100% for metal bands. Tours, album releases. We have a pretty cool metal community going. People I’ve been speaking with for many years now.

Leaving a platform you don’t like, or the reasons you don’t like it, isn’t “common sense”.
