I don't know, people in the US-- even many people who consider themselves patriots-- are just fine shit-talking the US, shit-talking capitalism, shit-talking the political party system, shit-talking prison slavery and Guantanamo Bay. Every time I try to talk about Chinese censorship and injustices on that community though, they deny them or pretend I didn't say anything.
Nationalism is absolutely stupid and everyone needs to stop doing it.
I mentioned ICE at least twice and US slavery and prisons at least three times when I told people here I am not giving the US special treatment. But people here are not making good faith arguments. I just got banned from !china too.
Also I wasn't complaining about random posts, but about the propaganda in the article about the BBC claiming British people are terrible liars and that Chinese people aren't, and that they "don't do things for censorship reasons".
We need to talk about !china. They are already on a straight course to being as bad as r/conservative.

I don't have much to say today, but every day I am working on arguing less and expressing the validity of other's feelings and opinions a little more.
Just because I think someone is wrong doesn’t mean I need to be abrasive about it. It really doesn’t do any good for anyone to be so.
Forbidden Crayola. Not technically a forbidden snack, but closely-related. (I don't know who the original photographer is.) (lemmy.ml)

Left Reddit and found Lemmy today. I created a bunch of new communities, including but not limited to: Why I Left Reddit, Forbidden Snacks, and Deciding to be Better

I'm starting my island over so I can feel good about unlocking things again. I haven't played the game seriously in like 9 months.
First I’m backing up my designs using acpatterns.com/editor. It can’t do Pro designs well yet, but they’re working on it. I’m using their Discord.
This one was the banner pic for Reddit's sub. It's a pretty good pic of non-mewtonian fluid. (lemmy.ml)

Shamelessly stolen from Reddit, because screw Reddit. :P
