All my email addresses are perma-banned for replying to right wingers. I had death threats, people questioning my sanity and calling me slurs. When I tried to respond with even an iota of the same energy - banned. On Reddit, the right wing is king.
reddit is run by nazis, for nazis.
Yup. Despite all their virtue signaling, they give miles more leeway to chuds. Funny enough, despite my decade plus on there arguing with right winged idiots, I never got a "KYS" message. But only two months on here some hexbear bitch popped my cherry because I had the audacity to claim Hasan Piker did in fact shock his dog for the crime of wanting to move out of frame.
This is my second attempt at re-joining Lemmy after experiencing the same brother.
It sucks having to moderate yourself online so hard when you're passionate, genuinely care and want to share the uncomfortable truths of the world, but the consequence of a 24/7 deluge of negativity when you have a life to live is just not worth it hey.
I've been a bit of a hermit online and offline since the pandemic, 2026 is my year to try to strategically begin getting back out there!
I believe in you homie. But sadly this is my form of social interaction cause I work hardware security in secure facilities, which means I vastly work alone. Well this and Uber, but the people getting Uber in my state, are usually not people I see eye to eye with politically. So I usually just talk food, or about my kitty Furryosa.
Well for your sake I hope you find some choice places you can enjoy and be yourself online <3
If you're into sharing pics of Furryosa, Pixelfed could be a good one to check out.
Thanks homie!
The chuds stir the shit and create clicks for cash.
kys message?
You know there are worse things for a dog than a shock collar, getting killed in traffic, or shot by the neighbors, or hurting a neighbor's dog, being amongst them. They learn pretty soon with the shock there are audio warnings so they aren't getting shocked all the time.
My sibling in baphomet, watch the video. I'll break it down for ya actually.
Dog moves, Hasan's hand goes out of frame, the dog immediately yelps, and his immediate reaction is not of compassion and wondering why his dog just hollered in pain! It was him immediately insulting her!
I'm a big animal lover. And I think you are wrong!
Edit to add: I also think you're a bad person.
Edit edit: I'm happy I pissed off some of you animal abuse supporters.
No you arent, hella dogs in your area getting put down right now at kill shelters, go save them all
"If you don't save every dog, you aren't a dog lover."
This is an insane take. By that local, someone doesn't love anything unless they are using all their time and energy on that one thing. Which is called obsession.
I have saved and retrained dogs in my time at the ASPCA in Orlando, where I was a kennel coach.
Now what amount of energy have you put into being a positive influence in the world?
I'm sikh, I do seva a few times a year, but thats mostly feeding and helping lame ass humans not gods gift dogs
Easily my favorite religion. How many non hypocritical religions are out there that require you to carry a sword at all times while also doing true humanitarian work?
I hope yall didn't put down any dogs, aspca is one of the wrost culprits for claiming not to put them down but doing it anyways, I heard so many negative things from my friends who were fostering in college, and reddit is filled with ppl talking about how they kill dogs when they claim not to.
I think you might be confusing them with PETA homie.
I was, you're right, but I did google aspca and read some bad experiences with them which made me think it was them I was thinking of.
The ones in Orlando was a very pleasant experience all around. I can't speak for any other area, but ours was pretty dope.
Or complain about the high profile dog of celebrity who mena so much to you and you have so much energy for
I don't know anything about this person or this situation, but you've never had a dog die from traffic clearly. Hold your dying dog in your arms and then tell me how wrong the shock collar is that would've saved them from that fate.
You are dangerously [redacted.]
If only there was some way to prevent dogs from running into traffic other than delivering 12,000 volts to its neck
Go away troll.
Troll? So does that mean you actually believe that shock collars are the only way to control a dog?
Just want to let you know. Since you're pro animal abuse, I'm not reading anything you type. But the "[redacted]" ending caught my eye, and lets me know you are in fact a frightened [insulting word].
You let your emotions be tooled by the worst people in the world, in defiance of reason, as such I'm not reading this drivel.
There are worse things for a human than getting castrated, so come here a second and drop your pants.
What logic is this when all pets are netured and spayed lol and thats considered good
This is some real talk! Like I'm a big supporter of gender affirming care and bathroom rights, but I'm two standard deviations to the right of the bell curve in terms of largeness and I got the super test gene.
I would happily give up a non insignificant amount of height, and donate ALL my test, if it meant I could have my younger back again.
Your gender doesn't start or end at your genitalia.
Edit: other than crotch homie, I would like some to explain to me why this statement is incorrect.
Your thoughts on gender are irrelevant to this conversation. "There are worse things" isn't an excuse to harm a sentient creature. There's worse things than being stabbed in the eye. Are you volunteering to be stabbed in the eye?
Who said"there are worse things"?
I said, fairly specifically, that I would gladly be more feminine.
The person I was replying to, before you inserted yourself into the conversation and derailed it
I was the person you responded to...
You're hector? If so, why don't you remember something you said a few hours ago?
Lmao! I'm in an argument with him too!
Edit to clarify: dude tried to question my community involvement. And I asked him if he was someone else I give no shelter to. I find it very funny you asked me this given my previous comments.
Oh so you thought I was him?
I think I mixed up a bunch of users I start arguments with(which in all honesty, I do way too much)
But it was dog zilla. https://lemmy.today/comment/22138351
I make mistakes, and I'll admit to them. I made a mistake, my bad.
It happens. It makes sense because your reply to me seemed so out of left field in the context of the point I was trying to make lol
Again, I am honestly sorry.
Honestly, yes. I'll look up the comment right quick.
"Do I have a penis or vagina?" - the great philosophical question of our time
It doesn't matter what you got, it's what you want.
I want to get a blowjob from Angelina Jolie. It doesn't matter what we want, reality ain't gonna change for us.
I really don't think gender dysphoria is comparable to your lust for Jon voight's daughter, and it's really dismissive of the trans community as a whole.
Found the Israeli.
