Hello and welcome! If you have questions about how Lemmy works feel free to reach out.

I’m glad you found some people. If you’re in the Akron area and are interested in doing some community outreach with other like minded people you should look into Serve The People Akron.

Not as smooth as the Culver’s frozen custard

Welcome to this little corner of the internet. I feel you on not being able to just sit around and hoping it blows over. I had a rather traumatic epiphany back in 2019 that I wasn’t going to be able to sit on the sidelines while fascism takes hold. I feel a lot better nowadays despite everything going on because I started finding people in my local community who felt the same way and wanted to make tangible change in our lives and the lives of others.

It was for a couple weeks

That’s a 196 thing I believe

Was the reddit post about this specific instance or do you mean Lemmy in general?

Yeah like, they could just…not do solitary confinement. Or prisons for that matter if we really want to get into it.

“I run the orphan crushing machine at work” “Why is there an orphan crushing machine?”

Hell yeah!

You a Sturgill Simpson fan?

I think reddit started banning people for even upvoting Luigi memes and protest stuff.

Hi!

Hello! Just curious, where did you hear about lemmy/this site specifically?

👋

For those who have never heard of these, I’m told its pronounced “ponch-key” or “putch-key”.

As far as “mainstream” broadcasters NPR/PBS are about as good as you’re going to get in the US. Unfortunately, they also tend to repeat narratives and in my opinion don’t go after those making bad faith arguments hard enough.

Please try to abstain from using ableist language here
