So the Sophons have finally arrived.

Already been down voted by a .ml user that got offended by me daring to insult their precious instance. Fuck .ml and their trash mods and admins lmao

You have been banned from lemmy.ml for violating rule 2

IMO it’s making fun of how there’s no solid definition of “woke” at least from the right wing perspective. Ask a 100 tories what woke means and you’ll get 100 different answers. It means whatever they want it to mean.

Fuck close minded people, all my homies hate close minded people.

That’s completely fair and a good point that I hadn’t considered. There are a lot of idiots on the internet that would unironically say things a lot of others would only say sarcastically, so I get the need for the /s tag and I’m probably being too judgemental about people that don’t pick up on what I consider to be obvious sarcasm.

Thanks for sharing your point of view, I mean that genuinely! :)

It’s honestly impressive, most lemmings seem even worse than redditors at picking up sarcasm.

Fuck the /s tag, all my homies hate the /s tag

It would’ve cost you nothing to keep this to yourself.

Do you not spend at least half of every day being angry about how much capitalism sucks? Filthy shitlib, you’re no better than a right winger /s

It’s no wonder the right is on the rise all around the world, they don’t have “purity tests” the way a lot of left wingers do. They don’t give a shit, if you support the cause then you’re one of them.

But the left? “Oh you don’t 100% support everything I want? Guess I’ll just not vote because both sides are just as shitty”

To clarify, I’m an NDP voter which is the left most party in Canada.

For the cheaters? A feeling of superiority. For the people that make those cheats? Money from those losers, apparently enough to be worth the trouble sadly.

Admins of .ml are trash as well.

That’s completely fair, I don’t begrudge anyone for using .world, that’s a very good reason to use .world tbh. There are other stable instances though, and I’m gonna shill for my own instance, the .ca admin is top tier and very transparent with the userbase. They straight up said -

“The community is what makes this happen. IMHO any major decision that impacts all of you, should involve all of you.”

Edit: This was said in the thread about potentially refederating with hexbear. I’m sure they knew it would be an extremely unpopular opinion to refederate with that shithole but they still sought out the communities opinion rather than making the decision on their own. Massive respect for doing that, and they abided by the communities wishes to not refederate with them.

Rare to find an admin like that IMO, .ca is where it’s at.

Move to a different instance. Honestly, .world is too big and has too much influence. I get most people just wanna join the biggest instance but tons of other instances federate with .world so you can still have the content without the majority convening on one instance and giving them most of the power.

What would happen if .world went down? Tons of accounts and communities would be lost, people need to spread out to different instances instead of trying to make .world reddit 2.0.

Edit: just saw you’re not on .world, that’s my bad. But my point still stands.

Sam Losco lives in BC?

What a dumbass edit. It’s probably because “ok?” Adds literally nothing and you could’ve just said nothing instead. But noooo must be fanboys down voting you right? 🙄

r/canada is a complete and utter shithole, don’t base your opinion of Canada off that sub cause I’d be shocked if more than a 1/3rd of regular commenters/posters are actually Canadian. Unpopular opinion on Lemmy, but I still use reddit daily on my pc so I can block ads and use RES with old reddit. 99% of the time I just browse by my subscribed subs which are all niche stuff that hasn’t yet made its way to Lemmy, but when I do dare to venture to r/all, I can feel my brain cells committing suicide.

Anyways, I’ve been subbed to r/canada since 2015 when I first started using that website and the massive increase in right wing propaganda is very noticeable. If a non-Canadian looked at that sub, they’d think Canada was a mostly right leaning country, when the opposite is true. If the left vote wasn’t split between people holding their noses and voting for the Liberals, and those voting for the NDP (my preferred party for 14 years now) then the tories would never win another election for a long time.

I’m 30 and born and raised in Canada. I can count the amount of right-wingers I’ve met on 2 hands. Most people I’ve met are friendly and accepting of people, although the rise in brainwashing from “conspiracies” is sadly increasing the amount of right-wingers. It also doesn’t help that the TFW (temporary foreign worker) program is being abused to fucking hell by shitty, greedy corporations and that’s starting to slowly turn people against immigrants. Even as a very left wing person, I’m getting annoyed at how many companies exclusively hire TFW’s in jobs that used to go to high school kids and young people in general. Why hire a teen that has a complicated schedule with school and just generally being a teen, when you can hire a TFW that depends on your pathetically small pay cheque to make ends meet?

I’ve been working with immigrants since I got my first job 17 years ago, and I can count on one hand the amount of shitty immigrants I’ve met. There are far more “natural born” assholes than there are immigrants, it’s not even a comparison. 99% of the immigrants I’ve met are awesome and hard working people that Canada is lucky to have. But companies are 100% abusing the shit out of it to suppress wages, and landlords are absolutely loving the shortage of housing due to our insane population growth. My rent went from $1800 a month in 2017 for a decent, well maintained 3 bedroom in a nice neighbourhood, to $2800 in 2022 for a complete shithole 3 bedroom in a sketchy neighbourhood.

People are rightfully frustrated with the state of Canada, but unfortunately that leads to a lot of brain dead morons blaming immigrants rather than the government that’s happily serving the corporate and landlord classes at the working classes expense.

I know the last half of my post makes me sound like I’m against immigrants, but I’m absolutely not. Like I said, I’ve met far more shitty “natural born” Canadians than I have immigrants. I’m always happy for more good people to come to Canada and help to make our country better and more diverse. I’m just against greedy assholes abusing immigrants for profit at the expense of the common Canadian. Wages are being suppressed and rent is being artificially inflated because of the government caring more about keeping a good stock of wage slaves to support the boomers retirement. Trudeau even straight up said “house prices must remain stable” because god forbid the fucking boomers lose a bit of their net worth by reigning in housing prices.

The average Canadian is just getting bent over and fucked by the greedy owner class and I’m fucking sick of it, but the NDP have basically zero chance to win unfortunately and they’re the only ones that would actually help the average Canadian.
