We think we have sapience and forethought but we're just post hoc rationalizing machines who have once again bet everything on "natural selection" to preserve the species. Which means most of us have to die. But I guess we were all planning on doing that, anyway.
Or maybe this is just projection, if Ford is the type of person who would use his office to tear out bike lanes he doesn't like to see on his commute. At least we can look forward to Ford getting stuck in even worse traffic while he stares at construction and the unaffected gridlock that will follow it.
Lemmy is Reddit 10 years ago
I mean it's not THAT good, but it's sure better than Reddit today.
"Reddit is awful. How do we move that here?"
I guess french pressers use BSD.
“When, all of a sudden, a camp falls in place right outside of the judge’s house. You’ll see how quickly people change their minds on that,” Ford predicted.
“If it’s not in their backyard, they don’t worry about it.”
Wow, now undermining judicial authority. What a terrible premier.
Cyclists die more often per KM traveled on the sidewalk than on the road. You just feel safer on the sidewalk. In 40 years of riding bikes, the only serious collision I had was on the sidewalk and I'm still suffering the consequences 30 years later. That's a mistake I won't make again!
Most people don't change unless they have to, and rarely even then. You'd have to make it so that they can't visit Reddit anymore.
Even on reddit itself, you can't get people to move from a sick community with hostile moderation to the preferred community. /r/Canada got taken over by /r/metacanada what feels like decades ago, and they turned it into a post modern bigoted classist hellhole, but it still ranks far above the "real" Canadian sub /r/OnGaurdForThee.
Maybe better not to compete with existing communities. Develop some anchor communities on Lemmy that are doing their own thing on topics that aren't well served on Reddit.
I know exactly what happens to the victims, because I was one of them.
non sequitur, though with sympathies. Such a topic requires mindful study to fully comprehend, and a single person's direct experience may not even be an asset in reaching an understanding.
Who is "they"? You are apparently claiming that UCP secretly wants to enable church authorities to abuse children.
I'm from Digg... which is now essentially a summary service for Reddit.
But, that's not relevant to communities. You can kill a community by technical means, but technical means cannot create one; it's necessary but not sufficient, and not even the hard part.
Most people are still on fucking FACEBOOK. They are willing to put up with almost unlimited bullshittery for the sake of their sense of community. Building a better mousetrap won't work, and building a vaguely equivalent mousetrap won't even move the needle.
