Agree.

Most of it sure, but there are still some active subreddits with human involvement I wish would switch to Lemmy.

Maybe, seems some subreddits still work here. Not sure if testing. The article was about potential upcoming changes which I guess are nearly upon us.

old.reddit.com has worked fine here for the past couple of weeks.

Also, civilsation is going to be brought to its knees by climate change in the coming decades.

Feels somewhat immoral to put someone you love through that.

Don’t forget the arse-linking, couch fucking lackey.

Don’t be evil.

He addressed their masters on the podcast last week.

AI is clearly no match for little Bobby Tables.

Seems you’re putting too much thought into this. If you really can’t come up with one just try a random noun genetrator a few times until you find one you like.

Welcome to the UK and congrats on already understanding more about the political landscape here than half of the voting population.

Jaw on the floor.

Toxic positivists: Despite the overwhelmingly depressing reality which lies before us, I’m just going to describe anyone that recognises it as mentally unwell, thus invalidating their well-reasoned opinion.

Rehydrate!

Fight? Sure.

Succeed without significant loss of life and infrastructure? Doubt.

“I saw it on TV!”

Took our jerbs, eat our dergs.

I think it means the electric field created within Earth’s atmosphere that is responsible for lightning as opposed to the (electro)magnetic field which forms the magnetosphere around Earth and makes compasses work.

Why would you expect it to affect productivity when you were working the same number of hours?

It’s just slightly increased flexibility under the guise of a 4 day week.

Guessing you might have been being rhetorical but I’ll give my take anyway… The stabbings were just the spark that ignighted it all.

They do not have a common goal but they are united in thinking immigration levels are too high, despite it being a net benefit to the country. From what I’ve seen they generally fall into 3 groups:

1. EDL/BNP/facists/racists who have been whipping up anti-immigration rhetoric forever. Emboldened by extreme language used by Farage, successive Conservative governments and no doubt rhetoric from the convicted felon across the pond. They blamed the stabbings (and every problem ever) on immigrants despite the fact it was carried out by an autistic kid born in this country.

2. Brexit/Reform voters who see themselves as “more centrist” because they aren’t as far-right as #1. They blame years of austerity, worstening living conditions and growing class divide on the idea “the country is full”. They thought Brexit was supposed to solve this and are now protesting because it hasn’t. They claim it wasn’t done properly so voted Reform but got a more centrist government instead. They want to make their dissatisfaction heard but as far as I know do not condone the violence. They might now know the stabbings were not linked to migration but the issue has escalated beyond that incident now.

3. Young people who are generally not very well informed on any of the issues and have been fed misinformation on their various social media channels encouraging them to join the protests. It’s the holidays, they are impressionable and angry. They think they’re part of some revolutionary movement or just drunk and up for some chaos so are out with their mates filming it all in their phones for the views. I imagine as they become more informed they will align with #1 or #2.
