To me is that they’ve been conditioned to believe that change requires some hero-type to show up and save the day.

In the US. That’s the point. If I get asked that, the other person generally has some degree of interest in my genuine answer
“market players”:
Wouldn’t want to get those inside it’s plastic bag
If someone sees you and thinks “wow look at this weirdo” it’s on them, not you. And in truth they’re probably just jealous of someone that’s having a good time :)
Seriously, what parts of the Bible do they quote to support their racism, selfishness, greed? How can they be so detached from what they claim to be their religion that they treat the 7 deadly sins as virtues?
“Something could happen”? Motherfucker, you either make it happen or not. It’s not something that’s bestowed upon us from the sky
Check, check, probably not, check, check, check, check, maybe?, check, check, check and check.
Sure, everyone has seen the checks and balances in action

Nvidia is breaking their graphics driver. Rolling release distros just get fucked by it

I think that it’s mostly just Lemmy being less dominated by native English speakers. Many of those mistakes that seem baffling “make sense” in some other languages
Funny, to me it’s kind of the opposite - we need to give diversified environments where people can feel welcome, not trying to jam everyone into one big “community” which is anything but.
I think that’s what was great about the forum and personal website era. If you wanted a place where you can use edgy language and spend your time shitting on things, there’s a website you could go to. Unicorns and hopeposting are over here. Nerds and geeks are over there.
That doesn’t mean segregating and creating ideology bubbles. Everyone can visit and be part of any, and can stay well away from the ones you know you don’t like. Take /b/ for example: it is famous for having a certain demographic, and if you don’t want to see it, you simply don’t go there. It’s not in your face, they’re happy about not having “normies” there, you’re happy about not having them in your digital home, every one wins. And if you’re ever in a certain mood and would like to venture in the woods, it’s there.
The same set of rules can’t fit all the possible users, purposes, times, etc. And although I also subscribed to the thought bubble theory , the counterargument that it’s actually the opposite - the lack of “social glue” between participants in discussions, made a lot of sense to me.
