  • Why are people on the internet (and Lemmy) so quick to say someone "deserves to die"

  • It's a psychological consequence of polarization, which occurs when you have too many people in a social group agreeing with each other.

    Groupthink elevates extreme opinions.

  • Many versions of the Bible have sadly censored the mentions of Iron Man over the years.

  • I remember watching when it was relatively new, but I don't think I made it that far. They kept that series going way longer than I realized.

  • A German warship blasted the Darth Vader theme on the Thames. 'No deeper message,' Navy says.

  • Well Germany is where Stormtroopers come from, right?

  • How do you deal with depression about climate change?

    Jump

  • This is the way.

    Social media will jump from one super important and stressful thing that we all need to lose sleep over to the next with or without us. Yes, these things might be important, but a lot of online activism seems to be about who can scare more people into supporting X, Y, or Z with zero regard for the reader's mental health, the rhetoric used, or even being 100% factual.

    It doesn't hurt to disengage every so often.

    Jump

  • I try to watch what I read online, and it truly helps.

    Do:

    • Keep yourself informed by reading bland articles about climate studies with direct interviews from the scientists conducting them.
    • Stay knowledgeable about who to vote for to support reasonable climate policies.

    Do NOT:

    • Read articles that inject opinions from the web journalist, terrifyingly worded headlines designed to get you to click, or anything written for a secondary purpose (e.g. voter mobilization).
    • Get your info 2nd, 3rd, or 4th hand from social media personalities on tiktok, youtube, twitter, or any website with an algorithm than rewards the most extreme takes with more engagement.
    • Let fear prevent you from living the life you want to live or making long term plans.

  • Are there any "famous" Lemmy users?

    Jump

  • Y'all are going to make me blush.
