I think it’s especially the money and LGBTQ+ and non sexual norms that are driving people to the right. I notice when I talk to a lot of younger guys theyre tired of hearing about it.

Because it’s pushed on so much of their TV shows and things they like that they side with political candidates that are conservative at a young age and they further grow into it. These are conservative candidates with lots of money usually.

I hate to say it but it was universally cool to defend LGBT people when the media and TV shows didn’t push it. Because you were defending an oppressed person. Now it more so feels like it’s popular which means it’s no longer an obscure thing, the anti culture is the new trend.

I want to disclaim that I don’t agree with any of this other than to say this is my observation of the behavior. I play rainbow six ranked on Xbox and use the looking for group party finder with a buddy of mine. We group up and encounter a lot of guys in the army and Marines, a lot of teenagers and this is cumulatively the culture I’ve heard. Same thing on like world of warcraft classic and using discord to raid but those guys run older typically.

Gaming. It used to be an MMO for like $15 a month. Now it’s a new game for $70, the game has DLC for $20-$30 or skins or some battle pass.

I had the same idea but there’s a lot of actual tangible assets that have to be dealt with.

The first part is picking a pilot country which is probably where the developer lives. The second is either investing in or partnering with Fast ship locations - you need a service or partner that you can use like Amazon prime to store inventory across a country, and last is shipping and delivery maybe it’s baked in. I bet there’s a company that does this that has an API or partnership program.

In other words you have to establish partnerships or literally incentivize real people to invest in order to create the same value as Amazon. The magic of amazon isn’t really that’s it’s like eBay and buying things online, it’s that I can get it so soon.

Ah yeah the guy who opposed Putin

Yeah surprise he’s dead

• Too much fluff on interweb
• assume others online are writing in brevity

I’ll generalize and say there are many my age in their 20s that watch things like TikTok and shorts that are conditioned for the fastest intake of media. This means ignoring the written word outside of texts.

Even myself, if I see a wall of text in an article, I know to skip the fluffer ad-reads down to paragraph three, then skim. To be fair most articles could be wrapped up to maybe two paragraphs but get extended for ad spots. Outside the context of reading articles on say lemmy, especially online, there is a largely missed hear mean not what I’m saying operating in good faith that often gets missed online. For example if someone posts an article about how smoking kills you, and I post a comment that “yes but its a creature comfort” I am not refuting it kills you - I’m merely suggesting that its a rough world and that people have vices to cope.

Nuance and assumption that we’re acknowledging it is often lost on people.

I’m so green to it I can’t comment. What have you seen that’s a turn off?

I see a whole lot of meme coiners over there so far lol.

Maybe you don’t really want an account one one server but rather the whole experience. Seems good nuff for that.

Are those the super communists that are like fuck any place that’s not Russia and China? Lol

If so I guess I feel the pain but I just give em the block

Things are fine man. There’s just a lot of de federation lately which I don’t think is exactly right.

I see the issue. You’re on Lemmygrad. So naturally everything has to be pro China, pro communism, and the moment someone says “yeah they all suck equally” you have to lick the boot. Seek a prescription for schizophrenia.

Fuck you right in your ass. I complained that everyone in here is pitching their agenda for their favorite country in the comments and what do you do? Exactly that. Learn to read.

Its far more weird how many people pick one of these countries like its a RPG faction. Can we all agree most of these countries do some totally evil things as far as governments go? Who gives a fuck how much debt they’re in, they’re all just printing their monopoly dollars anyways and we’re stuck with the inflation. Its like people like to masterbate to their favorite team via internet comments.

There’s a twitch streamer I watch and he often says that he feels like he can’t find information about Ukraine, then goes on to elaborate that there just isn’t many sources available to the US to find news without propaganda cooked in. It’s hard to know what to even trust in the first place.

I feel strongly that applies to reading articles about China as well especially if they’re written in English.

Thank you for taking the time to post and add in more links.

I think both China and the US as well as many other countries have insane financial positions, for quite some time now. The housing market in the US really painted that clearly. As I understand it in 2014ish the US passed legislature allowing companies to legally do the same thing they did that causes the housing market collapse again. According to the movie the big short at least, and some googling with that.

For code snippets especially. I mean the thing is limited to input sizes and doesn’t remember context of running conversations that well

As a citizen in the USA, I feel like late stage capitalism is really killing us via monopolies but that small-medium sized businesses still bring hope and continue to inspire. I also appreciate that if I don’t like where I live I can try any of the other 49 states without needing to establish myself as a citizen, save for my drivers license to operate a vehicle. The cultures are vastly different depending on where you live. I’ve lived in both progressive and conservative parts of the country.

I’m paying attention more lately to what benefits state-level legislation offers. Some states offer free tuition if you graduate from high school there which is amazing.

Norway or Finland probably. I keep hearing about Norway. A streamer from twitch went over there and got a whole education then came back to the US. I believe she had dual citizenship though. It seems like a nice place to live. I would just worry about my neighbors being Russia.

Yeah that’s understandably frustrating. I heard they make like no money off of that. Wonder how long before it hits the killed by google list.

Huh. I guess I mostly use foss stuff and maybe a few apps like youtube premium/tv, that I pay them for service so I never hear about it.
