Who is saying this to you
Without naming names, some folks right here on lemmy... I caught OP's first post that prompted this
Yeah I'd really rather not call people out directly. I don't think they're trying to be rude. Just thoughtless. But yes, mostly here on Lemmy. If people want to, they can dig through my history to see. It's happened a few times since Luigi allegedly did his thing. One of them was very recent, within the last two hours, which prompted this post.
There are a lot of people, especially on lemmy, who see everything through the lens of their personal ideology and utterly lack the ability to empathize or understand different views or life situations. You only matter to them insofar as to how it can advance or support their ideology. It's pathological, and their views should be ignored.
What is it that makes Lemmy users uniquely selfish or unempathetic?
That's a fair question. It's mostly just my observation, but if I were obligated to guess, it is partially filtering based on the types of people who are active and readily express their opinions on various topics, but also because of the reasons people moved to lemmy in the first place, many of whom were evicted from reddit because they were too extreme.
@RedditRefugee69 @OccamsRazer Wild guess: normal people. Or utter squares, the debate about the difference still rages on.
Normal and unique are antonyms in this context. Your assertion makes no sense.
But no one's opinion or thoughts here are with anything,...
I fully believe someone said this to OP. But it says something about the people OP hangs around with.
Nearly every reddit and Twitter comment feed is full of lazy, limp-wrist morons, egging mentally ill people to commit violence for them.
Keep a lookout whenever you are reading comments anywhere for "someone should (...)" or something like that.
There it is again!
Someone insisted to me that “limp wrist” is a homophobic slur. It reads very much like you’re using it to refer to inactive keyboard warriors, but I am interested in your thoughts.
I say it to refer to weak impotent losers who complain on the internet all day, and seeing that people use it as a homophobic slur concerns me and I'll stop saying it. Apologies.
It definitely had more of a homophobic connotation in the 90's. I'm pretty sure at least one Kids in the Hall sketch with Scott Thompson references the idea, just because I recall him making a hand gesture with him holding his arms up but hands hanging limp from the wrist.
I believe it started like that because it "looks weak" and/or "effete", e.g. wrist Who knows if another meaning has taken over it since like the early 2000s.
