I am against conscripts.

We must always be highly critical of those with power, money, and influence; especially governments and politicians (and the oligarchs that control/sway them).

I have known about those videos being posted on twitter.

I shared some of them last year, it is great that people are escaping the echo cambers we created for ourselves!

You are welcome!

Edit: not sure about sync

Communities on Lemmy World: https://lemmy.world/communities

Edit2:

Just got sync for Lemmy

As an anonymous user, you can see: Everything

Under this there are 3 sections: Post Sort, Communities, and Instances.

So just clicking communites should show you all of them while also being able to search for some.

You can also search through instances by clicking one, then clicking communities.

You should see what happens when political tribalism takes place in the United States.

Strong emotions and financial strain with the working class at an all-time high, disdain towards other groups, and fights break out.

Assassination attempts and murder of activists and politicians due to disagreements.

I think it goes back to dividing the working class and keeping us entertained so we don’t pay attention to the status quo.

Edit: improved sentence structure

Like all websites, there are fake ones and then there are official ones.

Many will be clones of what the original website looked like.

Wrong question and framing.

Israel’s goal is not to get rid of Hamas or their leadership.

Their real goal has been to continue the genocide of the Palestinian people so as to take 100% control of the Palestinian land and to kickout the natives.

Interesting.

Quick search:

Crying is an important safety valve, largely because keeping difficult feelings inside — what psychologists call repressive coping — can be bad for our health. Studies have linked repressive coping with a less resilient immune system, cardiovascular disease, and hypertension, as well as with mental health conditions, including stress, anxiety, and depression. Crying has also been shown to increase attachment behavior, encouraging closeness, empathy, and support from friends and family.

Scientists divide the liquid product of crying into three distinct categories: reflex tears, continuous tears, and emotional tears. The first two categories perform the important function of removing debris such as smoke and dust from our eyes, and lubricating our eyes to help protect them from infection. Their content is 98% water.

It’s the third category, emotional tears (which flush stress hormones and other toxins out of our system), that potentially offers the most health benefits. Researchers have established that crying releases oxytocin and endogenous opioids, also known as endorphins. These feel-good chemicals help ease both physical and emotional pain. Popular culture, for its part, has always known the value of a good cry as a way to feel better — and maybe even to experience physical pleasure. The millions of people who watched classic tearjerker films such as West Side Story or Titanic (among others) will likely attest to that fact.

There are times when crying can be a sign of a problem, especially if it happens very frequently and/or for no apparent reason, or when crying starts to affect daily activities or becomes uncontrollable. Conversely, people suffering from certain kinds of clinical depression may actually not be able to cry, even when they feel like it. In any of these situations, it would be best to see a medical professional who can help diagnose the problem and suggest appropriate treatment.

Comparisions:

There is a good amount on Lemmy that I have seen.

If you are active enough, you will start to see user names you recognize across major communities, as well as posts.

Edit: improved wording, a bit

The Labour Party is “left-wing,” as in that they are similar to the Democrats being “left,” but in reality they are republican-lites (conservative-lite).

Attraction to disability is a sexualised interest in the appearance, sensation and experience of disability.[1] It may extend from normal human sexuality into a type of sexual fetishism. Sexologically, the pathological end of the attraction tends to be classified as a paraphilia.[2][3] Other researchers have approached it as a form of identity disorder.[4][5][6] The most common interests are towards amputations, prosthesis, and crutches.[1] As a sexual fetish, attraction to disability is known as devotism, and those with the fetish are known as devotees.[1]

Sapiosexuality is a type of sexuality that involves being more attracted by the contents of a person’s mind than by the appearance of their body. To feel sexually attracted to another person, a sapiosexual person must first feel intellectually stimulated. Intelligence is often the first quality a person notices in a potential partner.

The word sapiosexual originated from the Latin root word ‘sapien,’ which means wise, and ‘sexualis,’ which means sexual. Sapiosexual is still a fairly new word, as Merriam-Webster’s first known use of the word was in 2004. According to research, between 1% and 8% of people aged 18 to 35 may be sapiosexuals.

Anyone can identify as sapiosexual, including both heterosexuals and LGBTQIA+ people. This means that people who identify as sapiosexual may be straight, gay, asexual, or another identity.^[2]

They are used to the short-term goals of stonks.

The more people there are, the more popular it is with the working class. Instead of being a niche community, you can meet non-tech people that know about Lemmy.

Lemmy is good as is; slow growth is better, IMO.

I agree. 

That is a feature from Reddit that I miss as well. There were also 3rd party backups of Reddit, so even if communities, posts, or comments were deleted, you would be able to see what was removed.

Awesome, thanks for informing me and others!

IMO: Anytime you had a question that you wanted to learn about, whether it be shows or science, you could go into your preferred search engine and type reddit and [your question].

A good amount of discussions on the topic would show up and still do.

One day people will use Lemmy as the search engine to look for those discussions, hopefully!

The duopoly choice is Bernie Sanders, even though he betrayed his movement and the people that helped fund and grow his grassroots campaign. 

A non-duopoly choice is a 3rd Party candidate, Jill Stien, Green Party. 

Awesome, thanks!

Edit: firestarter added, a must have

It seems to fit the name quite well.

I guess it was meant to be taken as a literal name; feel free to join in if you’re a firefighter or a Firestarter [1], that is.

PC or 3rd party apps?

You may need to tweak the settings a bit, but most do not require to.

Sidebar should show mods and, if any, rules and additional info about community.
