The problem I have is when a gimmick is forced on me

This packed in a Lemmy post is great, thank you that post is getting saved!

Thank you, I was looking for a syntax list too!

Sort by hot instead, active seems to purely go off of comments on sync.

While I do agree power hungry people will try to find and abuse power in any position available, I disagree that it’s a natural byproduct of being a mod. I think most mods are like that before being a mod and many currently aren’t like that. Upvotes for actual unpopular opinion.

Damn near everyone commenting is missing the point

For USPS they have a list of verified hemp vendors, they tried a couple years ago to open packages suspected of marijuana without a warrant. The outcome was it doesn’t matter if they suspect it, you still have to get a warrant. So now if a vendor is a certified hemp vendor they can’t touch it. Now UPS and FedEx are private companies so they can do pretty much whatever they want, that’s why almost all hemp shipments go through USPS. I’m paraphrasing a lot but that’s the gist of it. USPS is currently and has been the largest drug dealer in the country, even with omitting hemp because with the volume they process you could never catch them all and every other drug doesn’t have a pungent smell like weed.

While we haven’t had AR15s for that long, full autos were legal for private ownership prior to 1986

“Really?! I could not tell”

Translation: you just admitted to being in the out group I created in this post so any and all of your opinions are invalid. I will now judge you solely on a characteristic you had no choice in (we don’t chose where were grow up), you must be an ignorant racist hillbilly.

Wow what an insightful individual

“you just have to insert your opinion, and insult me while doing so, because you can’t take any sort of criticism”

You are so blind, you insulted their entire geographical area and you are acting like they are the ones insulting first?

“You cannot accept any truth with what I say”

They literally said the south has its problems

They obviously have a problem with your sweeping generalizations not your individual points and the hypocrisy therein, but I doubt you have the capability of self reflection.

Yeah but the south sucks is such an unpopular opinion! I mean this person has been to EVERY state, every one of them. They even lived in 14% of the states I mean if those are qualifications to judge a geographical area larger than most countries, what is? Yeah OP is a hypocrite and sounds very ignorant, but their “unpopular” opinion is obviously agreed upon by the majority so this doesn’t get brought up by others.

As communities grow from obscurity to populated change is inevitable. I used to use reddit and the #1 thing I hated was the condescending, holier than thou attitude that was rampant. I have seen it occasionally on here but for the most part Lemmy is a breath of fresh air, so I personally don’t think reddit culture has replaced it. I can definitely see a strong cultural influence from reddit but I personally think Lemmy culture is significantly different, in a good way.
