Thanks for the response. Unfortunately that is one of the drugs I tried for a few months. It didn’t seem to help. I have been getting more sleep lately but it hasn’t made any noticeable difference either. My brain is stubborn.

You should focus on what could actually be done versus telling strangers that having 1% faith things might get better makes them a delusional moron who is at fault for “celebrating”. I’m done here.

I think that in their mind, anything short of being incredibly rude is telling everyone not to worry. They’ve kind of told everyone that they only believe in a world of binaries. Either you demand 100% climate crisis aversion despite how impossible that is, or you’re telling everyone not to care about the climate.

If you think a graph that shows a degree of positive change is nothing, there’s nothing you would accept short of avoiding the climate crisis entirely. Which is clearly impossible at this point.

And they get upvoted for spreading gloom, we get downvoted for pushing back against blind negativity whatsoever. I’m having another “I should probably leave Lemmy” day

Trust me, I’m angry. I don’t know why it is so hard to see something like that and not think “oh well at least it’s slightly better than I thought”. But no. Gotta be a binary thinking troglodyte. It’s either perfect or it’s shit. Nothing in between.

What a perfect distillation of why everyone is depressed as fuck. Even when mildly good news comes out, it’s rejected and shit on. Would’ve been possible to understand there are multiple levels of being fucked but don’t let that get in the way of being miserable and trying to reinforce the misery of others.

Confidently incorrect

Next step is to claim anyone with a slightly different view is “not on the left”. See, being insufferable is easy and fun!

Yep, that sounds like the poster child for this phenomenon.

The users who are being talked about here probably don’t get that exposing your machine to the Internet carries risk. That’s the point.

Every response I read here seems to get it. Yeah, you shouldn’t do risky things without understanding them first. By all means play around with self hosting without knowing anything at first, but do not expose your machine to the Internet without fully understanding the implications and do not complain that self hosting is hard. If you think it is, you just need a bit more education. It’s already incredibly easy these days.

I thought that’s what I just did.

there were volumes of these right-wingers complaining up and down how Reddit was left-wing.

Yeah and that’s ironic because they literally call for violence against minorities and they’re still there but if you call a right winger an asshole you get permabanned. Reddit is a right wing cesspool, at least to the extent that its owners can make it one.

Ime rules broken in a context like that are selectively not enforced

You’re a troll.

If you have any care for your mental health, use any search engine to search the phrase “benefits of boredom”. You will find hundreds of articles telling you what I am.
