I’ll make the analogy more clear to you. In 1984 the government got absolute information control, thats what you guys are worried about. In Fahrenheit 451 people themselves censored everything that offended anyone, eventually leading to all the books being burnt.

People have opinions, and lemmy is becoming a worse echochamber than reddit.

How about just deal with it? Internet is meant to be free space, that includes racists, bigots, rednecks, people you disagree with.

Lemmy is worried about 1984 but in actuality is becoming Fahrenheit 451.

I use them every day for commute. Trolley buses are absolute pieces of shit. Slow, drivers understand mash the throttle like it’s on and off button and in cold winters their electrical cables overhead freeze and you get delays.

Btw their electrical cables make the city look like garbage. The only ones who think trolleys are a good idea are those who don’t use them.

Ah, I see :D I guess it is important not to miss those actual sparks of curiousity though

I had Louis C.K bit in mind when I wrote about the “why?” game bit. Comedy is a wonderful way to introduce people to more complex subjects

Great responses in this post. Thank you for additional source

Yes! Just learned about it, seems to be very similar to what I had in mind ^^

Haha, yes that indeed might be a problem! Any idea how to approach this without being incredibly annoying?

Problem here is the answer contains multiple explanations. When asking “why?” it needs to be more specific otherwise you get your problem.

I never knew about this! Thank you, great resource

Same here, a bit too broken
