  • He didnt lie about what his plans of action were, but he was telling everybody immigrants and foreign aid are the source of our problems. (Redunctionist i know)

    So he did lie. And most people arent equipped for the disinformation age.

    Its easy to say they should be smarter than that, but its also easy to say our administration shouldn’t be fabricating reality to further their platform. Blaming the masses seems pretty pointless to me. We all want better for ourselves. Maybe some are more outwardly selfish or racist or whatever but when are we going to learn to not frame 50% of america as inherently evil? Whats the point of watering down our perception of others?
















  • Thanks.

    I was frustrated because it seemed like people didnt want more people here, which is what prompted the post.

    If we do agree we want more people here then im happy.

    I mean honestly maybe this is a good project for me after im not so busy. I dont think we need to parse every new user to an ideal instance, but have a starting instance. Simple as that. Treat lemmy as if it were one website without additional instances and the only thing that would drive people to move from the default instance is their own motivation to customize their experience. So yes it would be a very simple, but inherently biased sign up.

    Personally i would love to understand better what instances are viewable to other instances to help make such a tool but i havent set out to research that myself.

    Sorry i dont have time to discuss further today, i appreciate your comment.
