Fuck, real people can’t do that

Ah, here he is.

The reason for warning labels on everything

Dumb used to mean mute. The phrase meant deaf and unable to speak.

Of course, not being able to communicate leads a lot of people to think someone is stupid, and I imagine that’s why dumb is now synonymous with it.

I once met a lady with some severe disabilities, no idea what, in a powered wheelchair at a bar. She couldn’t talk, and had a massive keyboard she would sort of flail at until she spelled out the words she was trying to say. It audibly spoke for her.

This lady has two college degrees, writes books, and does art to help promote the concept that disabled people are people too.

Pretty damn impressive. Her and her husband’s main gripes were how infantilizing most people are to them. And how expensive good wheelchairs are, lol

This was overtly happening and reported on a couple weeks ago

So you’re saying you Want your experience here to be dominated by ads, lies, and propaganda?

That’s exactly their goal

Well I can’t afford to pay for that much server traffic, can any of us?

Where will we be when meta own all the servers?

For some reason I can’t dowvote this, so: this is a fucking stupid take

So when they steamroll this place so hard you only get their side of the story, what then?

The fuck is wrong with you?

If you like meta so much, why are you here?

Do you understand what corporations do?

I’d rather not build a bridge to the land of festering pustules to begin with

Please let the door hit you in the ass on the way out

Xmpp’s popularity isn’t the point.

The point is google intentionally killed it

Just think:

Meta has literal billions of users.

The entire fediverse has about 1.5 million.

Less than a fraction of a percent.

Why in THE FUCK would meta notice, or care, at fucking all? The entire fediverse of traffic ported over to meta wouldn’t budge their advertising bottom line.

But, it’s a comparatively small group of smart people, having conversations, and profiles they don’t have tabs and near total control over.

There’s news about cop city and gaza I have seen here that I’ve seen NOWHERE else.

Don’t let them control the narrative here

I really don’t think that’s the case.

This is a nice little place, meta barging in Will fuck it all up

Are you planning to pay for the extra bandwith to deal with all the additional traffic?

Meta will.

And then when they own the servers amd all the traffic, lemmy will be quietly murdered.

Quietly, because they’ll control the traffic, and therefore the narrative

Everywhere this pops up, the users have decided:

Fuck meta. Fuck threads. Fuck the zuck.

Do not associate. Defederate now

Here’s a thought:

For someone with a congenital defect, maybe the healing spell ‘heals’ their body back to the way it was naturally-with the defect.
