Took your advice. Thank you.

Alright, I’m gonna be honest. That made me actually laugh out loud. I’d wear that shirt.

I was harsh earlier. You’re right. I think I was projecting my anger and assholishness towards you. I really dislike gatekeeping. Especially during these times when we need to draw like-minded folks together. Not fracture further.

And I ended up doing much of the fracturing.

I apologize. I’ll leave all the messages up for accountability reasons. I’ll link to this post in my original reply to your OP.

If you’d do me a favour and not lump all the .worlders together, or all members if any large instance. Technical ability and federation understanding isn’t uniform. Some are here just for the memes.

I get that’s where the main pushback is coming from. But they are the largest instance.

That’s my only point.

Be well. See you on the front lines, twink.

… and again and again, again …

And I would argue that at least *some* degree of contentiousness, i.e. “edgelord behavior”, *is* necessary (but insufficient on its own) to be an effective anarchist, for the simple reason that capitalism has made discussion about capitalism taboo.

No, the image is related. I’ll leave it to you to figure out.

I have no beef with you. Or OP. But gatekeeping is gatekeeping. I called out what I saw and stand by it. OP could have corrected themselves but decided to double down. I did as well.

My username checks out as well, comrade.

Ah yes, skill. You ooze intelligence, among other things I’m sure.

If it quacks like a duck…

Ahh…I retract my coward comment then. You’re just an asshole.

So then instead of “seeing the .worlders respond”, would you take “seeing many of the .worlders respond”? Because that’s…kind of a small change, really the only sensible reading.

That’s a massive change. “Many” and “All” aren’t interchangeable.

“Many” Americans voted for Trump.

“All” Americans voted for Trump.

“Many” anarchists describe themselves as such because they are edgelords, not anarchists.

“All” anarchists describe themselves as such because they are edgelords, not anarchists.

Big difference.

As for vitrol, read the tone of OPs post before you judge mine.

Edit: OP, a few minutes ago.

Edgelord.

Ahh shit. I thought they played the full scene in that clip. They left out the best part.

My bad.

Ahh…so a coward too. Funny how many of you I run into on here. Keyboard warriors with an instance fetish.

See you on the front lines, homie.

Typing anything into these fucken forums with my instance name and seeing the .worlders respond.

You see that as them saying .world users don’t like anarchists. I see it as them saying .world users are all anti-anarchy.

Saying “.worlders” doesn’t imply “some”, “many” or “most”. It implies all.

Lemmy.world is the largest instance. It’s often the default when you sign up. By saying it the way they did, OP is discouraging and limiting discourse regarding anarchy. By painting the entire instance with the same brush OP is effectively gate keeping anarchy.

Are you trying to gatekeep fucking anarchy, you fucking twit? If we don’t join your shitty instance we can’t be anarchists?

Put your head back up your ass and call when you grow up.

I’m in the wrong here.

Ahh…yes…now he gets it. Thank you.

Excuse me. If you would, could you explain the joke to my buddy? He’s a little dense.

The article doesn’t state what the reason would be. The transcript of the podcast mentions “farming” once and does not say why “A.I.” would do it.

On the podcast, the professor talks about the “artificial state”; Human governance by A.I. which is owned by corporations. She mentions of A.I. would treat humans the same way we currently treat animals (factory farmed). But again, no mention as to why A.I. would do this.

Does she explain it in her book? Who knows.
