Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either [email protected] or [email protected].
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email [email protected]. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
6) No US Politics.
Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try [email protected] or [email protected]

It seems mostly centre left, with a strong added helping of either liberterianism/anti-authoritiatianism or tankie, that's certainly true.
You're right, that there are smug keyboard warrior types, like those who were delighted that Thailand or Vietnam sentenced that female millionaire to death while letting the men involved off. I took umbrage with them. It wasn't revolutionary, it was sexism and maintaining the status quo.
You have the right idea with investing, too - if its something one wants to do. Provided you can keep earning enough to not need to sell unplanned. Follow the market, but don't let panic take over. Good luck with it all.
I truly wish there were more here with your outlook. Seems like so many here lately have been doomscrolling and just wanna lash out and base their entire identity on politics.
I still like it here better than Reddit, but ugh, hopefully Lemmy can stop being so hateful. I am on both Reddit and Lemmy, and Reddit doesn't seem to be as personal about it's hate and insults like Lemmy is sometimes.
But yeah, in the end, we're all gonna make it, brother. Some people just need to go outside more to realize it. lol
