  • I’ve been experiencing this on lemmy 100% They follow a playbook of sorts too. A couple of things I notice they all do:

    • Ignore any comparison to Republicans/Trump. Because doing so would point out how absolutely lop-sided the choice is.
    • Claim Genocide is the reason. Ignore all other reasons.
    • Call you Racist, Conservative, etc.
    • Claim that you insulted them in an attempt to become the victim.
    • Claim that during every presidential vote “America has been at stake if you don’t vote for [X] candidate” - ignoring the very real attempts at overthrowing our government.

    The community “leftymemes” also seems to have been made explicitly for spreading this kind of thing.







  • You might want to look up the definition of reactionary. Because that’s…exactly what it means. To oppose reform/advancements.

    You okay there bud?

    In political science, a reactionary or a reactionist is a person who holds political views that favor a return to the status quo ante—the previous political state of society—which the person believes possessed positive characteristics that are absent from contemporary society.

    Congratulations – Currently you and 18 others are not smarter than an average high schooler.



  • I’ve known many people to be like this, they just want to slink back, and ignore the blatant. Thank you for having the balls to step up and bite back. People like you are the reason I don’t see almost ANY Trump flags in my neighborhood this year. It’s a cult of personality that nobody else has quite been able to achieve. Once he’s gone for good, things can get back to semi-normal. We still have to be vigilant about the shit Republicans are doing, but at least maybe at that point some family ties will begin to heal.


  • Honestly, he’s wrong though.

    I know tons of full stack developers who use AI to GREATLY speed up their workflow. I’ve used AI image generators to put something I wanted into the concept stage before I paid an artist to do the work with the revisions I wanted that I couldn’t get AI to produce properly.

    And first and foremost, they’re a great use in surfacing information that is discussed and available, but might be buried with no SEO behind it to surface it. They are terrible at deducing things themselves, because they can’t ‘think’, or coming up with solutions that others haven’t already - but so long as people are aware of those limitations, then they’re a pretty good tool to have.

    It’s a reactionary opinion when people jump to the ‘but they’re stealing art!’ – isn’t your brain also stealing art when it’s inspired by others art? Artists don’t just POOF, and have the capability to be artists. They learn slowly over time, using others as inspiration or as training to improve. That’s all stable diffusors do - just a lot faster.
