  • Would you like to work in a factory for peanuts making basic goods previously made in China?

    Manufacturing never left America. Aerospace, military, energy, etc. are alive and healthy, creating highly specialized and valuable jobs.

    Trump wants to bring back people working for minimum wage (or way less if using prisoner labor) doing menial toaster assembly.

  • I don't see the appeal beyond for children.

    Nintendo reminds me of Disney more and more, pulling out the same old tired franchises for increasingly cynical cash grabs that prey on people's nostalgia.

  • Religious dogma does prevent critical thinking, actually. Secular places of learning are critical for the young and easily influenced to be able to develop their own belief structure, or lack thereof, without the influence of family or community exerting often overwhelming social pressure.

  • Honestly not too bad from an understanding perspective but I'm finding there are clearly drawbacks to the federated model. All these spread out parallel communities on different instances with very little engagement. It feels very quiet compared to reddit, seemingly beyond just the smaller userbase.

    I'm sure there's way less bot activity too, mind you. I was always blown away by all the /r/AITAH (and other) posts with thousands of comments responding to clearly AI-generated scenarios. Is it bots all the way down? Are people throwing away thousands of hours in aggregate engaging with these things? Puzzling.

  • "Turns out, Russia doesn't want to concede anything and demanded more Ukrainian land. Well, we tried. Clearly, it's high time for Ukraine to stop getting in the way of peace."

    • Little Marco in a week
  • lemm.ee is growing. Welcome, new members!

  • Same here. Between blocking all API workarounds and threatening me with a ban for upvotes, it seemed like high time to run a deletion script on my 16-year account and pack it up.
