Now that you mention it, I need this skill as well!

Good one. I’m studying Esperanto right now, because I watched a TedTalks vid where they said learning Esperanto (because it’s fairly easy to learn) teaches your brain to be bilingual. And that in turn, makes it much easier to start learning other languages.

Dankon, amiko!

Fair point. And I guess it’s not THAT much of an issue to me, cuz I haven’t changed at all and not really working to. lol Thank you!

Good choice!

For me: Planetary science. We are making space discoveries every day. It’d be so cool to be in that room when that information comes across the computers and everyone discusses what the new discovery means.

My own robot. But hey, that day may be coming!

a sizable population of people who don’t give two flying fucks which facet of the Plutocrat Party is running the USA

Now that is the case, I totally agree.

3 months ago, things were very different. Also, I am talking specifically on .world. That’s the instance where most of my drama came from

And for the record, there are lots of people leaving .world for that very reason now. It’s become a very toxic pro-censorship instance and people are leaving.

My post/comment history is public, as are the modlogs. If you’re bored enough, feel free to look at my comments and the replies I’d get. You’ll see for yourself it’s because people thought my advocating for third party was treason: https://lemmy.world/u/UniversalMonk

What are your theories for the “hatred”? If you find any samples of posts/commetns that are offensive, please post them.

Because honestly I haven’t gotten much drama since the election, because to your point, lots of people are pro third-party now. Most of the people who continue to organize for my ban always bring up the .world drama from 3 months ago before the election, and they are usually from there.

.world Biden/Harris supporters have a very long memory and hold grudges! lolol

Also, I haven’t been banned from any instances since the election. Yet I haven’t changed my stance or attitude at all. So I think that’s pretty telling.

Thanks, friend!

I actually don’t get banned “so often” though.

Two instances banned me before I even had a chance to really post anything (because they knew I wasn’t voting for Harris). And one other instance banned because they thought I was a troll because I posted articles that said Trump was rising in the election polls. Which by the way, he was. I mean after all, he actually won the election.

I still didn’t vote for him. I just also happened to not vote for Harris. Which made Lemmy really really mad.

All three instances considered me evil because I dared to say that I was supporting and voting third party. Now of course, the disgust with how lame the Democrat part was, people on Lemmy openly talk about how they want a third party.

All of this happened to me all pre-election. And now, since I was proven right, people don’t ban me for not voting for Harris.

The proof is still up. Mod logs are public.

So no, I don’t think about why I’ve been banned so often, because I don’t get banned. I just prepare for the next wave of hate because I still refuse to support the Democrat party.

I happily voted Socialist Workers Party and plan to continue doing that.

Thanks!

Yep, your story sounds pretty much of how I went through it to. Thanks!

I grew up in the 80’s. Was 17 in 1987. So I was at all the right times. But I’m, a mid-90-early 2000’s music fan. Tho there was a lot of good punk in the 80’s.

I was here in the 80’s. Not a fan. lmao

I taught my son to be a lover of pop-punk like Blink-182. No regrets!

Well like you said, I’m easy to block.

But I’ve never sent memes.

If I was the only content you were seeing, it’s because no one is posting. I’m doing my part by posting content to the site. Feel free to post yours as well.

Thank you!

Awww, thank you. Good to know that I’m #1 at something! This is awesome!!!

I may have to put your quote in my profile banner pic.

Thanks, amiko!

Hmmm, interesting. Well this is a casual conversation community, so I’m interested in what you have to say. Care to explain why you think that this post isn’t actually about what it claims to be?

Thanks! I’ll look into it!

Must be ambivalence then, because I’m not miserable at all. I’m having a great time. Thank you!@

I can roll with that. Thanks!

I said I’m not trolling.

And I’m not trolling either, which I also said. I was agreeing you.

Trolling is doing something to purposely annoy. It’s intent. Just because someone calls one a troll, doesn’t mean they are a troll.

I post a lot. And it’s one of the factors that people use when calling me a troll. But I’m not a troll, nor do I have any intention of being one. That was my point.

And just because I agree with you doesn’t mean you re suddenly “associated” with me. I promise your reputation won’t be tarnished just because you and I agreed on something.

Thanks!

No worries, mate. I’m never gonna rag on someone for being honest. I appreciate your bluntness. All good!
