And just how much can change with unexpected player injuries, players playing above expectations, players playing below expectations. There is never a time where you can accurately guess how a season is gonna go.

I know this is a Saddam meme but can we get a community for cool cross section postings

Then good thing when they developed the platform they didn't make it a legal requirement for you to make an account and browse only Lemmygrad.

I read Altruism as Autism, and honestly I think it should be added to the list.

You're telling me every technological innovation before 1750~ wasn't done purely for the sake of profits and shareholders?!? HOW WAS THAT ALLOWED!?

You can subscribe to subs that don't talk about it and unsubscribe from the ones that do.

There will be a lot of growing pains as communities take time to migrate over, discuss the drama, have new communities created, seeing over time which ones are moderated in ways you enjoy.

Tldr: take it easy, you and the communities will sort themselves out in time.

/r/politics is just DNC lib screeching and astroturfing. Nothing leftist about it. At least not since Sanders lost the primaries in 2016. That was the first major shift there.

Also that your karma/up votes don't accumulate. So people aren't Karma chasing.

Yeah so break up with him and move on. I don't see why you need to leak the texts to the internet and cause internet psychos to go off on him. But it is what it is. Stuff like this is always going to happen on the internet.

You'd be surprised by how much innate anti communist propaganda there is on the internet. You should judge lemmygrad by it's actions, not what you heard someone else say about the instance without any proof to back it up. The developers of Lemmy made lemmygrad as a separate instance because they knew not everyone is ready to engage in left leaning political discourse to that level, and wanted to create a space where leftists can be without persecution across the fediverse. The entire point is to keep any "tankies" being tankies in that instance, and you have to seek out the instance to engage with it. Yet you find people in other instances frothing at the mouth about the evils of people debunking their false platitudes.

There's plenty of people on lemmygrad I disagree with on leftist politics/information but it's a very reasonable community. If you actually provide your sources and proof and don't convey it in a negative or condescending manner, they will engage with it fairly. I've never seen as many sources cited as in lemmygrad.

I think modern capitalist social media has just conditioned everyone to be incredibly vitriolic and hate people for "what" they are and not for anything beyond a label, and when liberal westerners come onto a site where they have to engage people who will call them out on their hypocrisy, they freak out. It's also especially hard for these people to admit their hypocrisy cause so much of it is based in false information that is spread as cultural facts in the west, and have been since at least the red scare, so they don't even identify it as propaganda.

There is definitely some pro CPC propaganda and apologists in Lemmygrad, but I can guarantee there is a lot more unjustified hate and propaganda against the CPC and all the good things they've done, in other spaces like Reddit and other Lemmy instances.

It honestly depends on your local municipality. Where I live they don't take anything but straight up hard plastic that is cleaned, and clean cardboard, cleaned tin cans. Anything else they don't process. And even then they're probably throwing out the whole truck of recyclables cause one dingus didn't clean out a can and it got tomato soup on everything else. Recycling is honestly a scam in America, especially once China stopped buying our waste years ago.
