There is a positive correlation between how often I post and how poorly my life is going.

Moved to wren@lemmy.today

Sometimes I post here by accident.

  • If you see this comment, it could be interesting to get an idea of how many people:

    a) Thought OP posted this in like a “Look at how dumb this is” way, or,

    b) Thought OP agreed with the idea presented in the image.

    I think this might have to do with communication climates (I am so far from an expert in anything) and how a climate of disagreement with peers and prevalent media can affect how a message is received. In other words, if surrounded by stupid people with stupid ideas it’s easy to assume the next stupid idea has come from a stupid person.













  • Oh, I agree. I’m not sold on them even existing, either. But I’m debating available reported evidence.

    My new personal, not totally serious, conspiracy theory is: They are real, Tyler is an edgy memelord with no affiliation, and someone at one of these organizations shoehorned the Groyper connection because they own Groyper Coin.

    Is it plausible? Maybe. But we’re in a platos’ cave of media lies just trying to figure out what the shapes mean.




  • It means the messages aren’t specific to any one movement. It seems like wasted effort if they were going to slot him in to any category, since they’re open to interpretation as either ultra right wing memes or antifacist memelord quotes. Depending on the news source, they are being interpreted differently.

    Or, maybe “they” made it intentionally occlusive to avoid a civil war. Because let’s face it, the right were calling for a violence before the casings even came out. Hell, they were calling for violence before the shooting, too.



  • Every time I wonder how Doug Ford is still in power, I remember it’s Ontario.

    But still, that last provincial election was blatantly corrupt. It was in the middle of winter, right after mailing checks to everyone, after an intense media spin about how “tough” he was on Trump (before immediately backing down.)

    Unemployment is up. Healthcare is down. Forest fires were ridiculous and he implemented policies for special economic zones that will make them worse. Tax money is being used to fight for the destruction of bike lanes everyone wants. How the hell is his approval rating going up.


  • The amount of corporate bios I’ve read that talk about wives, husbands and family is astounding.

    But I’m not totally sure what this is. It looks like someone joining the community to work for free? I might be wrong. If that’s the case they should be allowed to write whatever the hell they want as long as it’s not hurtful.

    And super weird they’d take out “queer” but leave the furry thing. Not that there’s anything wrong with either.
