I mean, if Lemmy.world doesn't when they decide to try and move in, I'll just move on to the next site that does. Prolly Lemmy.ml

I was wrong, and it was a guess using context clues from the post I was replying too.

I didn't "make it up", I was just incorrect.

Oh no liberals talking about politics, the horror lmao

Just because people disagree with you on if people deserve humans rights doesn't mean they're targetting you, my dude

ah so if you’re poor, taking care of loved ones, or otherwise unable to move, then your life is acceptable collateral damage? accelerationism has victims.

People who've never been to those states don't realize they're literally a trap.

The rent and cost of living is lower, sure, but so is the pay, and so even if you want to leave you just don't nake enough money to save up. Moving is expensive, and a lot of blue states cost a lot more than red, so it's extremely difficult to not only put money aside to move, but also enough to cover the higher cost of living.

And then what if you can't find a job right away? A lot of folks in the south couldn't afford an education, so we get stuck as unkilled labor which makes it harder to find a living wage.

Meanwhile you have well off people who've never really struggled in the same way aaying it's their fault for not moving sooner, or in a lot of cases accuse them of "refusing help" somehow.

It's tiring and extremely frustrating.

The nazis were overwhelmingly christian tho. They even formed their own special form of it that literally just takes out the jews.

The soviet union specifically prosecuted christians, so trying to say they were the same is wild

I just escape that jail, moved to California, it's actually shocking how much nicer it is.

There's a streep aweaper that comes through the neighborhood once a week, so the streets are extremely clean, and like, the roads are actually well maintained. Just from the like, extremely surface level things.

Days late, but my first ever Fediverse experience was a Linux dude's pro-trans post that was cool, but then the comments were spammed with "N-word bot"( not written that way) shouting exactly what the name suggested, with tons of people cheering it on. It was the main reason I avoided it over here for a bit.

So theres absolutely shitty people here too, as in any community, but therer does seem to be less so far.

It leads you through 3-4 different pages, hides the "Yes, cancel" button in different areas, and gives a lot of "Keep subscription" buttons with different wording.

It's not difficult, but at multiple steps you think you're done but your not. I had an issue a month or so back where I thought I canceled, until I saw a prime charge on my account. I imagine for someone not used to some of the tactics it's pretty bad.

They've been saying they were going to add/fix things for the last 6 years while actively ignoring mods lmao, I doubt they're gonna change that.

Oh the ml in lemmy.ml is Marxist lenonist. That makes a lot of sense actually

Incredibly hyped. Sync is the only reason I've been able to use Reddit for yeeeears, and seeing it moving to Lemmy really sealed the deal
