Atomic distros should replace Chromebooks and managed work/school computers. They shouldn’t replace personal all-purpose computers.


We got the shitty power mods down though

Last time I saw this joke, comics weren’t on the list. We did it Reddit!


I’ve heard it feels more like sucking a dick than like getting your dick sucked


Lemmy also tends towards misogyny and truscum attitudes moreso than Reddit. There are great instances like blahaj or zip where that’s not the case, but on Lemmy it’s not feasible to only view posts on subscribed communities, while on Reddit it is. And that means it’s easier to build a progressive feed on Reddit.
Also one of the Lemmy lead devs is transphobic.


So you’re saying autism and narcissism (autism spectrum disorder and narcissistic personality disorder) are similar enough that you are certain you can relate to the struggles of people with NPD and you know they shouldn’t be concerned about having a slur used?
Suppose someone who hated Elon Musk called him a nasty word like “emotionless autist” or “robot sperg”, as examples of anti-autism slurs based on shortening the name of the diagnosis. I think this would be the same as calling your parents the slur you used. If you can honestly say you’d be completely fine having an anti-autism slur used on a bad person, then I’ll accept your use of an anti-narcissism slur on bad people. But if you think one of those two very similar situations would be ableist and would hurt disabled people, then please accept that they’re both ableist and they both hurt disabled people.


In 1979, a historian named Christopher Lasch, who had no psychiatric credentials, wrote a book arguing that modern American culture was increasing the prevalence of a particular psychiatric disorder in the general population.
The book gained a lot of cultural traction, especially among people who call themselves pop psychologists, but whose actual job is writing scam self-help books. They started using this disorder in their books as a bogeyman. They said people with this disorder are living among us, stealing our energy and resources and making us weak. Basically just a reskinned version of the antisemitic conspiracy theory.
These narratives became so popular that people started using the slur for a person who has the disorder without even knowing they were talking about a disorder. They thought it was just a word for a certain kind of bad person. Like how kids in the 90s used the R word.
You heard that word and didn’t realise it was a slur, and you used it to describe your parents.
The word is “n*rcisisst”


Are you using that word as an ableist slur or as a reference to that Greek kid who was killed for being asexual?
I hear Linus sleeps with nunchucks
Because he’s a fascist, and fascists are more likely to have homoerotic fetishes than be gay.
Being gay is a sexuality. What Trump has is a homoerotic fetish.
And the bad guy doesn’t wash his hands
