EDIT: I’m up for philosophical thoughts community though
Independent thinker valuing discussions grounded in reason, not emotions.
I say unpopular things but never something I know to be untrue. Always open to hear good-faith counter arguments. My goal is to engage in dialogue that seeks truth rather than scoring points.

In my view stupidity is about how one thinks, not what they know.
Agreed. Lets apply that to politics too while we’re at it.
It is by far my favourite game ever. I’m not aware of any other quite like it. The level of immersion is insane and like you said, you really don’t want to die and lose everything you’ve been working for tens of hours. The base game itself is not that difficult once you get the hang of it but the fact that you may get shot at by other player literally at any moment changes everything. It’s an absolutely massive map and even if there was like only 5 other people playing you still can’t let your guard down because one may be in the same town as you. I just wish people were more willing to talk instead of shooting on sight, though I can’t really blame them.
There’s a 15 second delay for logging out but yeah, you can log out mid-firefight and many people do. However the point was that when you die you don’t get to try again from last save - you start again from zero.
DayZ master race. No saving available.
Not a meme. Do we really need politics on every-single-community?
I moved from Instagram to Pixelfed around a year ago and went from barely anyone seeing my photography to literally no one seeing it.
I consider myself unlikeable as well but all my real life interactions with other people indicate otherwise. At some point the pile of evidence to the contrary stacks so high that I need to consider wether I might be wrong. Not there yet though.
If you don’t want to deal with life then you can just end it for yourself. No need to take the rest of the humanity with you.
The fact that people are constantly talking and making everything about politics is the “problem” I’m talking about here and that is what I’m almost entirely blaming social media for. It’s not the world events I’m blaming social media for but the reaction people have to them.
This is the best platform for constant live updates about what the people you don’t like are up to. Then there’s articles about everything that’s wrong in the world and also some memes - mostly political.
The current events are nothing new - social media is.
Social media is what happened. Consuming negativity all day every day makes people angry and depressed - who would’ve thought.
I don’t see how this has anything to do with federated platforms. I’d argue that watching Loops is just as bad for one’s mental health than TikTok is.
I wouldn’t say that I don’t see the appeal of it. I would probably get sucked right in if I gave it a shot. It’s a consciouss decision on my part to simply not do that. I don’t not-consume short-form media because I’m better than the people who do, I prohibit it from myself.
Like I said, I’m not for this ban. In my view what ever reason is used to ban TikTok should then apply to every other social media aswell. I don’t want the government to dictate which content I’m allowed to consume - I should be free to decide for myself. I simply don’t view this issue thru the lens of free speech.
It’s similar to banning porn. While it’s objectively bad for you, so is drinking gasoline and that’s not illegal either. If you want to drink gasoline you should be allowed to.
