    Yep, same. People on Lemmy are a bunch of keyboard warriors. I doubt much of them boycott any of the things they say they are going to.

    Lemmy’s make more than the average american, and they use the shit out of Amazon, etc. They like to talk about being holier-than-thou, but they don’t do shit. They just talk shit. lol

      I also read Reddit and even the liberals said this was stupid. They were saying what difference will a day make? Historically the left has been better at boycotts but bud light changed that. For the most part I’m against boycotts. I think they are silly. It’s virtue signaling. I don’t care if bud puts a trans woman on a can. I’m don’t drink that crap anyways. It’s also a good sobriety check. If she starts to look sexy. You should have stopped two beers ago.

        Kinda like when reddit did their big boycott of Reddit. Which lasted for what, 3 days? Then everyone just returned to normal and it didn’t do anything.

        It’s all virtue signaling and upvote karma whoring.

          I hate virtue signaling. I’m not an overly political person but the crazy left has made me be more active. The left is pushing for a civil war and lemmy/reddit has made them believe their ideas are popular. The real world just punched them in the face and that’s hard for them to deal with

            Exactly what happened to me. Actually Lemmy pushed me farther right and seeing how they try to silence conservatives made me decide to push for more conservative voices on here. Seeing how they took over over c/conservative on .world by removing the mods and then making it a meme community proves what they are doing.

              Most of the United States is conservative and it will grow as we allow more immigrants in. Most immigrants are conservative. They should be actively engaging people here in good faith to learn what we think about things and why. Until they do that, they’ll keep losing in elections because they missed the pulse of the people.
