A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics (NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out)
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

I joined reddit on the tailwind, so it was all echo chamber, we hate newcomers, gatekeeping, automod frenzy, too many rulebreakers, too many rules, etc I could be wrong, but thats what I imagine it used to be like.

Warm and cuddly until you say something negative bout China or Russia, then they come hauling ass..

I could never understand how you could be attached to china's government that intensely. their government has fully betrayed communism, so extensibly that tech giants with no public control, (control the public instead) are fully formed.

Edit: i forgot my original intent but I do want a discussion and not just a roast of led astray MLs.

LLMs, useful idiots, and a couple effective propagandists overseeing the whole thing.

And you are correct. Capitalism with beasty grin.

Putin is a militant pensioner from St. Petesbugrg garages. Fuck Putin.

Well, technically it is not negative about Russia. And I think I've yet not seen trolls from Olgino(or whereever they currently are)

Or say something in support of conservative American policies. Or say something in support of organized religion.
