Tell me that you have never ever spent a year’s salary for such a present made out of crystal & metal, without telling me that… :-)

These jerks at the top are smart enough to not use their nukes…

Read some of the old “Miss Marple” Stories, then some “Hercule Poirot” Stories.

I was wrong

So, what does it tell you?

You’re factually wrong on that aspect.

Because of 450 cases in some foreign country? Don’t be ridiculous.

This is the scenario I’m asking about.

Nobody knew your scenario before you explained it in detail. It is simply not happening.

Organisations don’t want to be bothered with such restrictions from a donor. Their principles are: fair and anonymous. It is hard enough already this way.

Yes to Life: In Spite of Everything (Viktor E. Frankl)

LMAO

I am able to think straight.

(most of the times, at least)

It us not just petty or counterproductive. It is violating the basic principle of democracy itself.

Sometimes it feels as if the author was a bot, with the intention to push opinions or agendas.

And stop making excuses for “leftist” murderers just because they’re “leftist”.

Oh… now you see me pouting, bc I love to smash all the rightists and their excess guns for every murder that happens in the news somewhere.

This is political and only (if at all) interesting inside of your Usa with it’s broken system

I think that was later, when money started to take over.

We used to receive more real e-mails than SPAM e-mails.

Nobody needed a pseudonym back then.

You could just speak your mind openly and always write your real name to it, and it was THE NORMAL thing to do.

And yes of course we all had some f*ing “controversial” opinions back then. It was our youth after all :-) No holding back with what you would probably call unbearable extremes nowadays. And then nobody needed to do any canceling or banning or crushing our skulls…

every meta domain, if you want to be extreme

I wouldn’t call that extreme, because it’s the only option that works.

This isn’t a platform issue. The issue existed since the dawn of time. It’s a human issue. People suck.

True, but humanity is not stuck there.

Power must not be concentrated too much on single persons. People need to share power.

There are ways to do it so much better than reddit did it. Read my second item: you need a way to review Mod’s decisions, and it must be an easy and transparent way.

Think about courts in real life: above a court, there is a higher court, and they can review the lower court’s decision.

That is a very Usamerican way of looking at the problem.

Mods having their own personal, perverted interpretation of the rules (or interpretation of your post)

No easy, transparent way to review their decisions.

Is it possible to view/use real reddit subreddits in a Lemmy app? (I have thunder and jerboa installed)
