Ahh, yes. The golden era of usenet flaming.

Be patient. It takes time to “get going”.

If you know how to program, you’re in a good spot. If you don’t know how to program, start with fundamentals.

SICP is good. It’s Lisp. You’ll probably never write a line of Lisp professionally, but it will help shape how you reason about solving problems.

Develop some solid fundamentals.

We on Lemmy

No shit. Didn’t you get the memo that Lemmy was filled with Reddit transplants over a month ago?

I look at threads as a net positive

It isn’t positive at all.

If you aren’t willing to understand why, I don’t know what else to say.

No no no, those are valid, sure, but they wouldn’t be possible without that initial comparison.

The comparison isn’t between the two of them and the two Nazis, the comparison is between the two of them.

There’s the implication that they’re both “evil” or “bad figures”, which is the entire point. The analogy itself wouldn’t be that great otherwise

A pox on all of your houses.

I simp for neither - try again

Based and “I’m not a moron” pilled

The usage of the analogy by definition implies a comparison of some kind.

Otherwise, wny use it?

You gotta realize criminals and street life is the same as the mainstream. Please trust me.

lmfao

Your “opinion” is just the regurgitation of a programmable monkey, playing back rage bait written by journalists on repeat.

Elon is fine in comparison; he’s far less of a problem than Meta is.

The platform at this point may as well already be doomed because of people like you.

Really - it’s like I’m reading the posts of Reddit manchildren who will forever retain their virginity because they’re incapable of understanding how things actually get done.

I guess you can’t expect much these days.

What’s going to happen next? Meta dominates the platform, you and the rest of your kind “protest”, then you fuck off somewhere else and pretend you “won”, while sucking each other off only for a repeat to happen sometime later?

Are you going to wear your fedoras?

It was always about hating humans

Or, to keep it simple: making money off of humans by exploiting their empathy?

I used to agree with the second paragraph, but watching videos of pigs/cows/chickens being slaughtered changed my mind. Imo their prior treatment doesn’t really negate what happens there- and even if it did, I couldn’t use ideal farm conditions as a defense when the vast majority of meat I’ve been eating is raised under less ideal conditions.

Methods of slaughtering them are terrible and absolutely criminal.

One good thing PETA has done is raise awareness about how the meat industry treats its animals.

PETA itself is an organization I place in the same category as a cult, though. Their own practices make the sincerity of their intentions questionable.

but “fuck Meta/Google because they’re evil” is subjective as hell and gets us nowhere except back to Reddit culture.

That’s true. A lot of Reddit culture is cringe as well

Jesus, this. If we could just move on, that would be nice.
