Probably a bot or bad troll assigned to follow Squid with downvotes (they are controversial user depending on who you ask)

[–] FlyingSquid 28 points 2 months ago (2 children)

If that’s true, it’s fucking hilarious.

how it feels to have online fans?

[–] FlyingSquid 15 points 2 months ago (4 children)

Weird. But then I feel that way with legitimate fans on YouTube.

[–] SpaceNoodle 13 points 2 months ago (1 children)

How about illegitimate ones?

Hey would you DM me your YouTube link?

[–] peopleproblems 7 points 2 months ago

They have videos of fans on youtube now? Jeez.

Makes me think I should just turn mine on and record it from my phone.

[–] stoly 2 points 2 months ago

No love for the bastard fans, hmm?

On Lemmy, take it as a point of pride because it means you're likely doing something right.

I confess being colorblind this took a little more scrutiny but was not I who downvoted lol.

It triggers me that this is a pie chart. First of all it implies there are advantages even if they aren't keyed in. But most importantly pie charts only measure the weight of something within within its own context as a fraction of the whole.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 2 months ago

Not OP but I believe that, along with the fact that the listed attributes aren't advantages, is part of the joke.

I. e. conservatives are also missing basic grammar and graphic skills. Homenonschooling can do that.

B-but they fly an American flag (tattered beyond recognition, and under a pristine Confederate flag and flag of Trump's face photoshopped onto Rambo), how could they not love America????

not having to engage with reality and telling yourself right every time seems like an advantage to me

[–] tortina_original 9 points 2 months ago

This is awesome, thank you 🤣

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 months ago

Intelligence is too big on the pie chart IMHO

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 months ago

I see what you did there.
