Anything views quality control as an expense.

Are you even listening to yourself?

There is a vocal segment of Lemmy that can ONLY frame the world through the lens of class warfare and nothing else. That’s why they hijack every topic and thread with the same rhetoric. They have no plan, guidance or recommendations on what to do. They are only here to inform us about the ills of capitalism as if the collective psyche woke up yesterday and forgot all of history. They are so enlightened and privileged that they can’t help themselves in their need to share this valuable knowledge with everyone else. Capitalism bad. That’s it. Then they scuttle off to the next thread and start over. That’s the extent of “the Revolution”.

Yes god thank you.

I thought I was going crazy, every single thread that’s even remotely (very remotely) connected to politics is full of this.

I’m seriously worried for the platform, because this shit is going to turn people off hard.

Even saw someone suggesting an assassination of a supreme court justice AND PEOPLE WERE FUCKING DEFENDING IT. The mods removed the comment luckily, but I still managed to get like 30 downvotes on a “don’t suggest assassinations, be better than them” comment, just check my history.

We’re becoming fucking Truth Social or Parler or whatever of the left.

I mean, I recommend voting and being active politically and socially, but there’s always people who hate discussing politics at all and just want to live in their middle class bubble thats keeps on shrinking.

But, sorry that people point out negative things in your vicinity, it must really suck when you’re taken out of your self-imposed apolitical safe zone.

Just as annoying are the “cars are bad” people who crawl out of the woodwork every time a car is mentioned.

I was just reframing the statement based on the previous commenters nitpicking.

The point being they consider it an unwelcome expense instead of part of the necessary cost of doing business.
