okok sorry maybe I misread; please don’t be so butthurt about it (no offense)

I care about palestinians because they are people and deserve to be treated as people, instead they are treated like cattle in a slaughterhouse. That has nothing to do with OP or you, it’s just my opinion on palestine. That’s why I said “palestine deserves attention”.

I don’t know what OP has done or sth. If they put forward a relatable message, I’m going to listen to it, no matter what unhinged bullshit they may or may not have said earlier. I don’t like ad-hominem attacks in general much.

Ok I just tried it and I must say:

• it has few users. Here in austria there were practically none.
• The interface is ok and polished, but some choices are questionable: I cannot multi-select whether I’m looking for a romantic relationship or friendship and also I can’t change that setting after account creation.
• otherwise it’s nice, very clean and usable, also very intuitive.

oh in fact I do care, even though I can’t prove it to you.

what makes you think that I don’t?

wtf are you talking about?

I don’t usually meddle in US politics (am from europe), but I endorse kamala over trump, obviously.

I am not saying that the palestinian genocide is bad and therefore we must stop voting for liberals; quite the opposite: We must vote for liberals because if trump wins, things won’t be ten times worse, they’ll be 1000 times worse.

serious advice: don’t.

gambling is a scam designed to extract money out of poor-witting desperate souls. don’t start, it’s designed to be addictive, but mathematically, on average you always lose money with gambling.

The day has barely started and that’s already three posts on the topic today.

Good. Palestine deserves attention.

There should be something like non-profit dating platforms. Just like Lemmy.

It’s also worth noting that things are different depending on cultural context. There’s huge shifts in public perception, and these can very much influence the chances of meeting “crazy” people.

commercial dating apps are a dirty business anyways.

they simply rearranged the letters: NaZi -> ZioN

at what point is it defense and at what point is it deliberate escalation of a conflict?

you have to imagine you’re being attacked on the streets. at what point is it self-defense and at what point is it aggressive behavior?

Except the teapot. The teapot is highly valuable.

please don’t use “we” as if it includes me.

same feeling as when people talk fondly of “the great roman empire”.

Like, I can’t deal with these videos. They are literal populism. They tell the people what they want to hear, put forward some “bad guy” to blame everything on, and then move on.

Reality is much more complicated, and especially, much less one-sided and much more interesting than that. For example, the common narrative among “climate studies” graduates seems to be that oil = bad, and the oil industry is a bunch of greedy old guys who exploit the planet for profit. Thing is, that is a very narrow-sighted thing to say. There’s so much more truth and beauty in it than just that. Plastics is literally one of the best inventions humans have ever come up with. It’s formable into every imaginable shape and literally has the potential to transform our material world in any way that we can imagine, in any way that we want to. That people put so much blame on plastics today sickens me. It’s wrong to blame plastics, just as it’s one-sided to say “well yeah oil companies are just plainly bad entities who only brought harm onto our society and planet”. Truth is that the oil production has been widely supported by both politics and society for the most part of the 20th century because oil is just an incredible substance with incredible value and brings a lot of improvement, benefits and progress to the society. We should be glad that we had it, and we should be thankful for the oil companies for producing it in mass quantities. It is only now that we start seeing the downsides to it, and it has to stop. Still, I can’t stand videos that just simplify things down to saying “oil is bad, plastics is a scam, …”. It is not, it’s just outdated.

Yeah but who’s gonna sign responsible for potential traces of dirt on your food?
