Don’t be so sure, I can carry a lot of meat.

ah, my mistake.

Not as bad as you, but ya, a little.

My pet peeve is interrogative greetings : how are you? how’s it going? What’s up? etc.

It’s like a preemptive attack.

Part time construction? Fence building. Don’t need to talk much, or have much skill.

I’ll bet she couldn’t carry as much meat as a man tho.

That’s so ageist.

Super hero. 100%

You are saying “fuck you” like 3 times there. I can see how you might feel cynical.

What you are saying is that we are all children and we are governed best with children’s rules.

I’m gonna go ahead and disagree with your initial premise there.

See, now you are saying “fuck you”, and framing it all snarky, “You’ll sure show us, won’t you!”. That’s actually worse than “fuck you”.

I think that the problem might actually be bullshit. There’s a ton of “fuck you” going around but it’s disguised, so it can’t be rationally addressed, but we still feel it, the awfulness, so to escape the awfulness we subconsciously slide into these safe conversations, where conflict and the invisible yet toxic fallout don’t exist. But the safe conversations are not very satisfying.

Most of the people that I’ve met who habitually reach for “fuck you”, frame it as a question or an argument. Which is arguably worse. And somewhat common. Well, common in the conversations that I like to have.

Yes, that’s bad.

Also, how do you appeal a post-removal? There’s no “contact the mods of this community” button as far as I can see.

Frankly, I think they just remove what they dislike. But maybe I’m wrong.

I’m repairing a chain link fence. It’s low on my list of favorite jobs. Finishing tomorrow. That’ll be nice. Get paid too.

I once compared demanding that people use a certain pronoun to demanding that women wear burkas. Got banned from the lemmy instance for that one. These are not rational people.

I think you’re wrong there. I think that the glands make aggression and that we’d be less aggressive without them. Not to mention various related obsessions.

You can’t think of a way to enjoy the benefits without suffering that liability?

Sometimes it is. It depends.

It’s implied. Nobody wants assholes.
