Extremists who have fallen for the dehumanization of Muslims. It’s just another example of why all the dehumanization and pro-genocide rhetoric coming out of Israel’s government and social media is so dangerous.

Crazy how simple and obvious that seems after you see it, but I never would have suspected it if someone did it right in front of me.
Maybe don’t “take a guess” at how mental illnesses work when there are tons of studies and experts that know better.
Same. I didn’t care for relay compared to RiF, not my preference, but it was good enough after RiF died. But now that relay is out too? I’m not sure I can stomach using the reddit app. I’m definitely not paying for anything either. I already pay with my mental health by reading reddit comments, I’m not paying money to do it too.
So we just shouldn’t have high speed sattelite internet for people in rural areas or disaster areas because some people make money from it?
Or they should only be there if a government runs the sattelite? Because that wouldn’t change the effect they have on telescopes.
This is the kind of comment I was talking about.
I do wonder how much the average people commenting would care if musk had nothing to do with this.
It’s an issue, but it’s an issue scientists knew was coming for decades now. Starlink isn’t the only company putting satellites into low earth orbit. They aren’t the first and the amount of them will just keep coming.
What we need is regulations and requirements for how many, what purpose, how they’ll be dealt with if something goes wrong and when they’re no longer needed, etc. Getting people to share satellites that are already there (when possible) and not putting up satellites that are redundant or don’t provide that much benefit versus non-satellite options or further orbit options will be important.
But all these mindless circlejerkers only talking about musk and wanting starlink “taken down” are really polluting the topic with meaningless bullshit. It’s unfortunate people are bringing these mindless circlejerks over from reddit.
All the mindless circlejerking and echochambers. I hope the federation helps split up communities about the same topic which should help prevent echochambers from being as strong, and keep people seeing more information and opinions about the same topic.
I was so tired of seeing blatant lies and misinformation being spread just because it fit people’s narratives. Like those “dawn project” tesla videos, people hate musk so much (which I’m sure all the much worse billionaires love), so they feel they must hate teslas too, so they keep spreading those videos that have been debunked and proven incredibly questionable that were made by a competitor that’s been failing to compete. That’s just one tiny example. Don’t even get me started on the outright lights and misinformation people spread about crypto.
And of course if anyone ever tried to correct anyone, share actual facts, real articles from trusted sources, anything that went against a particular thread’s circlejerk, you would just be harassed, personally insulted, and downvoted immediately. It was so hilarious and sad spending time responding to someone’s bullshit with real information and a real argument just for them to do a one-liner personal insult based on nothing, because they knew they didn’t actually have anything but the circlejerk is all that really ever mattered.
I’m ranting, but this attitude people have of just not caring about reality when the lies fit what the circlejerking hivemind wants is one of my biggest gripes about modern internet and it’s incredibly dangerous. It’s exactly the mindset that trump supporters have that allows them to believe whatever the fuck they want and that led to people dying at the capitol, and it’s the type of mindset that will eventually lead to far worse things if social media companies don’t do more to combat misinformation and echochambers.
I don’t know why everybody keeps downplaying where AI is already at and the speed at which it is improving. It can already disrupt multiple industries with where image, voice, and LMM AI is at right now.
