Discomfort pushes people away, comfort and compassion pulls them close.
Theres a greater purpose to this all than wrecking reddit, its building a new, better home. One resistant to rot. You can in anger run away, but you need somwhere to run to (else twitter complaints happen). To those who need a home base on the internet, lemmy is there.
Edit: the “running away” is half symbolic of any action that distances you from a place
Edit: ive posted a better comment below this one
I disagree. Discomfort angers people. Once you take everything away from them their only recourse is fighting. They won’t just sit there and starve to death when they know who is responsible.
Today people are waking up. They are starting to notice how fucked up the world is and that billionaires are responsible.
You might be conditioned to roll over and take it but young people are not. Violent revolution is coming and it won’t be pretty. Soon there will be no other option. There will be tons of people willing and ready to burn everything to the ground.
The narrative will change completely once food shortages start happening. It won’t be long before the crop failures are here. Buckle the fuck up.
Let me be clear. yes, you are correct. (it was late at night and i was on copium) The problem is in an angered state, people need (actively seek out) an explanation. There are con men that love starving people because they are vunrable. The only just thing to do is help build that explanation together, without being like the con men nor letting their scams and lies into the group.
Edit: Twitter was conned into thinking there was no better place to go. Despite the fact mastodon exists. I hope we didnt and dont make the same mistakes
