those who fought against it

Did they do more than just vote?

Reminds me of the “make an angry child laugh” trick. Which I absolutely loathed as a child, because it worked but it also wasn’t taking my emotions seriously.

I think you just killed ten French people

Like a person living in a tent made from hide and bones

Nah, he’s just a film buff

Hey now, they also eat fermented shark

…yes? Why wouldn’t it be

I wonder if a news community with a “no mentioning the US” rule would work. Not out of any hate, just as something arbitrary like “don’t use the letter E”.

It’s hosted in Finland, by a German company, and has Dutch admins. Was that your point?

Edit: bonus, the Lemmy devs get paid from a Dutch grant and the ones whose nationality I know are not from the US

… the average Westerner also has access to the internet? At most, maybe it excludes those who don’t speak English

Tons of people speak English as a second language, on the internet

Democratic socialism (DemSoc) is a specific term (not to be confused with SocDem). Unless your point was that DemSoc is a bad term?

What’s next, reacting with 👍 is actually totally fine and positive?

This would fuck me up for life

Also, now you don’t have to waste as much of your spare time exercising (to fight weight gain caused by eating 3 meals a day as an adult)

Just make sure you don’t compensate by snacking more

I think it’s less applying their morals to the cat and more not wanting to support the meat industry. That said, yeah just don’t have a cat. I expect many vegans aren’t too big on the concept of pet ownership anyway.

Lemmy’s markdown does actually have footnotes!^[1]

With statements like this there’s almost always some context left out, but even in the best case this feels like cheering on the death penalty

Is there a reason why you want to speak less?

Wouldn’t be surprised if that’s the person that wrote the post
