So is doom scrolling on Lemmy ๐
It's like you want to lose elections and make sure fascism is king.
Just mind your own business, Jesus Christ.
This comparison is so ridiculous that in the end I decided not to argue against it. I can't believe some people.
Yes, social media has never ever made anybody believe shitty things or make shitty decisions.
But I know, taxing social media use is unfathomable because it would cost you money despite the obvious social rand mental health risks.
No, Facebook, tiktok, Reddit, fediverse, blue sky, all without consequences or effects at the personal or socialital levels.
Incoming triade about how fediverse algorithms are unique because they only follow easily exploitable hottest and popular models and this place definitely isn't just the most displaced small populations of progressives, anarchists, and trans community members with their own biases and immediate fuck you's to anyone who doesn't wholly agree with their objectives.
Pick your battles. I very much think having a megaphone to the Internet has been more problematic to my life than fucking Coke.

He's addicted to soda. His diabetes and obesity are gEnEtIc mIcROpLaStIcS.
175 , mostly lean. I'll do 260w on the bike in an hour and this afternoon I'll do 14k lifting.
I'll beat most nearly every one of my peers in age and I'd be more than happy to put up a nice bet, based on my odds here on charity that I'd outperform your mouthy body in a general athletics competition.
But alas, permanently online fatty and scrawny nerds get to hide anonymously, screeching at anybody who makes any unoptimized decisions never having to admit they are unpopular and making it easy to usher in shitty over zealous policy.
Increasing the price of soda was unpopular 10 years ago as it would be today. It's stupid policy and not worth dying on that hill.
