    It’s Lemmy. Do you honestly think people on Lemmy post here to be taken seriously!?

    Do YOU post on here to be taken seriously!?

    Does anyone!? It’s fucking Lemmy, not a news org.

      i mean yeah, i’ve had plenty of meaningful conversations on here! it’s a public forum, what you do with/get out of it is entirely up to you.

      this is only striking to me because your behavior suggests you’re trying to change SOMEONE’S mind. at the very least it seems like YOU think you’re saying things that make sense, or have some kind of internal logic.

      as it stands though, this community is absolutely fucking hilarious to interact with, and the worse half of my brain really hopes you never change. either way it doesn’t matter what i say, by now this is just theater! ^^

        Nope. I couldn’t care less if minds are changed or not. I post what I find interesting. If others like it; cool. If others don’t like it; cool.

        half of my brain really hopes you never change

        Oh don’t worry. I won’t change at all.

          i guess i’m surprised that you’d expend so much effort effectively trying to pigeonhole yourself into, what is essentially a waste of time.

          but one man’s trash and all that, maybe this is the best way for you to have fun!

            what is essentially a waste of time.

            Waste of time to you. But I enjoy it. And I’m retired. So I have plenty of time. It amuses me. People play pokemon go and video games for far longer than I am on Lemmy. Isn’t that considered a waste of time as well?

            The only person I have to answer to about Lemmy is my gf. She’s not a fan. So I only post when she’s not here.

                have fun being out of touch babe

                Trump won. Lemmy cried and had no idea how it could have happened. I’m not out of touch. I saw him rising in the polls.

                Heck I got banned for posting articles of him rising in the polls before the election.

                And now here we are. He fucking one. Doesn’t seem like I’m the one out of touch.

                Babe.

                    But I’m not out of touch. I’m not shocked or saddened by what is happening. :)
