    What do you mean a wild take, do you think tradies dont say this? When I worked in construction it was common to hear people suggesting drop out of high school and join the trades. I think you should at least finish highschool but if you’re really doing shit in school then fuck it why not. Plus its just a joke, its not that serious.

    Thats not true at all. Much of the work humans need to survive still requires humans.

    The fact is that people aren’t going to work and getting paid by businesses that produce products nobody wants.

    You are overthinking about a meme. There is nothing stopping you and 3 people from having a picnic in the park. I could do it every week. Someone unemployed getting the benefit could do this every week. Thinking that the current economic system is preventing people from this is insane.



  • Its hard to break into peoples minds with no advertising budget.We can’t tell people on reddit about Lemmy because reddit bans your account.

    Lemmy got a ton of traffic after the api black out and it did an incredible Job at retaining a lot of those users. There were 200k active users and Lemmy was much more unstable at the time. Active users did fall off as expected but 50k stayed for 2 years. Thats great in my opinion. If we had another migration wave I reckon the retention would be even higher.

    For someone to switch from reddit to Lemmy three things need to happen

    1. They need to know it exists

    2. They need to dislike reddit or centralised corporate controlled social media on an ideological level.

    3. They need something disruptive to happen. Either a ban or a change they dont like.

    No. That line of logic falls for me. There are plenty of things we’ve given the benefit of the doubt that we don’t cosign or believe in even hitler. I’m not willing to write someone off as being MAGA because they said a positive thing about Trumps FCC pick. He doesnt need to be MAGA for that tweet to be a bad thing.

    I am willing to lose trust in him for being stupid and thinking Lina Khan was a worse FCC chair when hes suppose to be an expert in this industry.
