    Typing long ass comments and then deleting them cause it wasn’t going to make a difference.

      Well, typing and deleting lets me think thoroughly about where I stand in matters and what arguments I use. So in a way, it sometimes makes a difference for myself even if not posted.

      fwiw i like reading long ass comments. usually there is something useful or insightful in there.

      way more than i like reading ‘ok boomer’ comments.

      but totally get that it doesn’t make a difference and the vast majority of the replies will be of the ‘ok boomer’ or ‘u suck’ variety.

      Your comments look good. I think you should do more.

      Hardly any comments here are important, but getting the conversation going, and then continuing requires the contributions of as many of us as possible.

      I mainly post photos, and I love when someone even takes the time to say wow this was really cool or this pic made my day a little better.

      Everything you do here feeds the process of making this a better and more active place.

    All, 6 hours (or 12 hours if I sleep).

    I like being forced into All by the smallness. I didn’t realize I like Star Trek and D&D memes as much as I do. And if you go far enough, there’s porn there, too!

    Mostly writing comments and reading tech news and privacy stuff. I barely write any posts.

    Telling people what’s actually happening in my country, and then getting called a fascist because it doesn’t align with what their very-independent and very-honest and totally-not-biased media tell them. That could have been fun if it wasn’t really sad :(

      Maybe because you are a fascist. This would be a lot more fun without people like you on lemmy.

        Aaaaand yeah, that’s exactly what I was talking about ^ :/

        And you know the funniest shit about that?

        wikipedia:

        Fascism is a far-right, authoritarian, ultranationalist political ideology and movement, characterized by a dictatorial leader, centralized autocracy, militarism, forcible suppression of opposition, belief in a natural social hierarchy, subordination of individual interests for the perceived good of the nation or race, and strong regimentation of society and the economy

        That’s exactly, like exactly what I argue against, and those who call me fascist argue in favor. I’m getting labeled fascist by actual fascists XD

          Anyone can go and read your profile if they want to know what you really are.

            Yeah, that’s true!
            And then anyone can point out (and of course quote the exact text I’ve said without ripping it out of context and/or rephrasing it in their own words) which of the things I said makes me fascist :)
            For some unknown (although deducible…) reason nobody has done that so far though, everyone prefers ad hominem attacks… Hm… It’s almost like actual by-definition fascists call me fascist just to make me look bad but have no arguments to support their claims… Weird, we all know the intellectuals of lemmy would be never do that :)

              No one wants to waste their time trying to debate with trash. Easier to just downvote and move on.

                Yeah, so that’s exactly what I’m talking about, just insults and complete lack of ability to have a normal discussion :(

                So, if you have not moved on yet (if you have and/or are not willing to continue the conversation - please still think about it, it’s important for self-improvement) - I have just one question for you. In theory, if you were believing in something that is not actually true (of course this is impossible, as you are clearly intelligently superior than me and your every belief is correct, but let’s pretend otherwise just for the sake of a thought experiment), how would you expect to learn the truth, if you refrain from engaging in a civilized argument and call people that disagree with you trash and fascists? For example, if you lived a few centuries ago, and believed that Earth is flat (which is a normal thing to believe at that time btw, because that was the consensus of the majority) and you called everybody who says it’s round a fascist (at that time it would rather be heretic, but it doesn’t matter), how do you imagine a scenario where you learn the truth? Or are you saying that you don’t care about learning the truth?

    Scroll until I get a panic attack, then smoke weed saying it will calm me down then have a worse panic attack for 45 minutes
