Because there’s NOTHING we can do about it right now. Nothing.

I want art of this now thanks

That’s fantastic. Strong “f you” spirit in this one. Three cheers for human coding with feeling!

“the left” is not a monolith. A lot of people have various relationships with"the left". I don’t identify with “the left” much because I disagree, strongly, with being put in a groupthink box. I happen to have some beliefs that the groupthink box on the left has vhemently and painfully attacked me for. But I also REALL REALLY REALLY think the right is wildly wrong, because they’re being simplistic, stupid, and very very corrupt. And I STRONGLY object to corruption. I happen to genuinely and unironically love my country and the promise of a fair chance for all. I love clean water. Clean air. A healthy wilderness ecosystem you can spend time in. Hard work that does good for the world. I love the freedom to research, honestly, and speak freely and without fear.

I don’t see the right sharing some key parts of those values these days. But I’m concerned the left has become too inactive, too sullen, too much a party of victims who lash out reactively.

Don’t have a solution yet except to vote.

I don’t feel like I’m constantly sorting through low quality bot shit to find a human with authentic human expertise.

I do miss the long chains of wordplay, the sense of humor and fun. But Reddit gave that up for ragebait ages ago.

I live in the middle of fucking nowhere and I am SO EXCITED for this.

It’s a LOT easier to make bots fake being human than it is to detect bots faking being human.

Welcome! It’s WAY quieter over here because it’s mostly people, not bots.

I would tell folks on Reddit to come to the fediverse but I deleted all my reddit accounts.
