Well that’s exactly why this is getting so much attention.

here it’s more like this:

don’t own a car no store in reach ??? starve

That’s turmeric, one of the healthiest human foods. If you don’t care about the looks, and it actually works, then why not? I’d be surprised if the actual “approved” chemicals are safer than literally just turmeric.

To our collective social woe, disinformation succeeds because so many people care deeply about injustice but do not take the time to study the facts before passing along or acting on disinformation.

Something many of us should learn from, even more appropriate on lemmy.

That’s the problem. The interaction you describe is what happens IRL. On lemmy, or most of the “left” internet, it’s the total opposite, with people getting offended at the slightest misstep. Somehow being ignorant in some areas makes you evil or a jerk. People all have a limited amount of time to spend, and not everyone choses to spend that time learning all the politically correct ways to call people.

I also wouldn’t refer to someone as “an illegal immigrant” the same way I wouldn’t refer to them as “that fat man” because you just don’t refer to people that way. But I don’t have any issues talking about fat people, or illegal immigrants, in general. Or if it’s specific, it’ll probably be something like “John got deported last week because he was an illegal immigrant”. Not “get out of here you illegal immigrant”. Not that it sounds much worse than “get out of here you undocumented migrant.”

I agree with calling people what they want to be called, but most people don’t spend their days on lemmy and aren’t up to date with what people like being called. People should get used to be called the wrong thing, or wrong pronouns. If you specifically tell me you want to be want to be called a certain thing, I have no issues with that, but until you tell me that, you shouldn’t be offended that I call you what is effectively a description.

I personally have never heard anyone IRL say the words undocumented migrant, or even outside lemmy tbh, while illegal immigrant is obviously common. So by default, if I need to refer to these people, this is the term I’d have used, not intended as an insult.

There are some, but “illegal immigrant” isn’t. Calling someone a fucking idiot is an indult. Calling someone an illegal immigrant to their face can be an insult, but the words themselves are fine, it’s crazy how people are insulted by what is effectively a description. Not like idiot or moron which is obviously “tagging” someone with something they aren’t. Or calling someone an illegal immigtant when they aren’t just because you don’t like them. Undocumented migrant is fine for now, next thing you know even that’s not dignified enough. The same way retard became handicapped and suddenly out of nowhere handicap is not dignified enough, so it became disabled.

Isn’t moe the bartender in the simpsons?

I mean, the words themselves are not an insult, it’s the context they are used in that make them an insult. If you don’t insult people then you don’t have to worry about what words are insults and what aren’t.

So by that same logic, you don’t own a phone or a computer because they abuse child labour to make the chips. Why are you on lemmy then? Exploiting children indirectly is way worse than violating copyrights indirecty.

He’s praising the site’s action, not the site itself.

It’s almost as if it’s the nationalism part that makes them do that rather than having anything to do with their religion.

Same with christianity, the core religion is somewhat fine, it’s the church and the people that used it as a tool that arent.

The company violated those terms, not OP.

This is just a random picture he made for the meme. He’s not trying to sell it and it doesn’t replace an actual artist. IMO that’s an accetable use of AI.

I mean, you don’t become a billionaire by giving money away.

It’s generally a great series but it reminds me of Wheel of Time, in that some of the main characters are incredibly stupid and don’t seem to get any better. James Holden in particular is one whose stupidity is hard to withstand sometimes. I ended up not being able to finish both of those because of that.

Ah, yeah that changes things a bit.

400MB??? What do you have running? I never use more than 100 unless I open a game or something.

Alternatively, if you know little to nothing about what you’re looking for.
