It’s never too late to start doing something you love.

Apart from that: fuck capitalism. It suffocates the (non-capitalistic) personal development and freedom of virtually everyone.

Shh… don’t make us feel bad about our pathetic lifes.

Why do you have a picture of my wife? /j

I don’t hate America. America is a continent. It would be really silly to hate an entire continent.

You can show them this clip from a movie to make them understand: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qti4VT6T0ts

Yupp. In Germany alone within 26 years a decline of about 75 % has been observed. (Lazy Wikipedia link: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decline_in_insect_populations ).

This is really scary.

Oh vey, someone got triggered hard. ;)

I’m on Lemmy and religious people, vehicle owners, and anyone who didn’t use Linux is bad on your eyes or whatever

Even though there are a lot of communities which share such views, I wouldn’t be so bold as to shove all users of Lemmy into the same drawer.

But if my free practice of my faith […] offends you

No. It doesn’t. I don’t know you. You could be an alright person for all I know. Although your reaction gives me the impression the other is the case. I didn’t address you specifically, did I? I made a general statement about religion.

Furthemore, even though not necessarily offended, I am usually concerned about religious people.
If you live it for yourself and keep it to yourself, I can tolerate it. But if you drag others into it or proselytising dangerous fairy tales, you will find me freely practising criticisim of that.

you can go right ahead and fuck off because I’m allowed to be as offensive towards you as I want so long as I don’t try to control your life

What a marvellous religion it must be, which teaches such warm-hearted values. /s

This bullshit is why you assholes never achieve shit. If someone doesn’t perfectly fit your ideals, you dismiss them

Who doesn’t achieve anything here? Who are you talking about? You don’t really know much about me or other users on this platform.

Also, bold generalisation again. I for example, don’t dismiss someone for not perfectly fitting my ideals. And I would be surprised if the majority of users here would differ from handling it similarly.

you should see that they’re your ally on everything that actually matters

To me, personally, a world free of (organized) religion actually matters a lot.

If you decide that everyone is your enemy

Good thing, that I don’t then. ;)

Also think about the mass dying of virtually all insects and pollinators. Not just bees.

Separation of religion from life is even better.

Barbaric idiots.

Death penalties don’t help to fight crime, as has been proven over and over again.

Aaaand another country made it onto the list of countries I’ll avoid visiting.

Sooo… to “be a real man” you need to be gay now or what is it they are saying?

Thank you.

It will be used to bail out companies, who struggle to financially survive. The money will go to the higher managements though.

There’s a list of Chrome extensions

If you don’t want to have an enshittified internet, it would be reasonable to not use and thereby support software by a company which actively works on enshittifying virtually everything it touches.

In other words: stop using Google / Alphabet products.

but “it is far too early to think about it.”

Far too early yet. Didn’t he promise his voters that this would be the last time they’d have to vote?

Texas lawmakers, facing mounting evidence

As if the evidence wasn’t present before. Fucking idiots. And even greater idiots who have voted those idiots into positions of power. That’s what you get for a lack of critical thinking: people die.

You can install things from random websites for Linux too, though.

*hateful and stupid
