How can you complain about the quality of the memes if you haven't posted a single one yourself?

Show us how it's done.

I believe you misunderstood why you were banned.

You were banned because of incivility and ableism. You were making derogatory comments about the mentally ill as though having a illness was a bad thing.

I can see why you were confused, as homophobia is also listed under rule 1.

This is the way. I am happy to hear you are taking control of your lemmy experience.

The liberals are desperate to blame anything and everything they can to justify not changing a single damn thing about the democratic party.

Because they know the blue conservatives won't change. Their donors will not allow it.

I'm still here posting about the flaws of the voting system that gives us two shit options to choose from.

Are you working to replace First past the post voting in your state? Now is that so venerated time to push for these changes at the state and local level.

Don't you care that your country men/women/and more are under represented by their options at the polls?

Upset over 3rd party voters? Best get back to passing electoral reform in your state then.

You wouldn't tell people how to vote and then do nothing to fix the voting system that is the source of the problem would you?

I would love to slap down my copy pasta in every poltical post about how First-past-the-post voting artificially limits the number of viable political parties to 2 and is the greatest barrier to effective non violent change in the country. But people don't want answers, they want to be mad.

And the mods kept banning me. Even when I ran the copypasta through chat GPT to get a unique comment every time I posted the pasta.

Why the fuck should my comment change at all when the solution hasn't changed?

Great point.

We can't pick our family, but we can pick who is in our lives.

Things did not improve with my family until I showed them the door. They still suck, but they definitely reigned it in once they realized they were optional in my life.

Set boundaries, stick to them. Even if the only way to be happy is to never see them again. This is their problem, not yours.

Don't blame the internet for the unjust hierarchy that permeates every facet of human civilization. It is a tool, nothing more.

You would prefer Roblox then?

Hey dude, I just wanted to let you know there is an option in your settings so you don't see upvotes or downvotes.

Lemmy (AFAIK) doesn't even show you your total upvotes (karma... whatever it's called) by default either. None of these imaginary points fucking matter.

So why don't you do yourself a favor and uncheck these boxes and not give a fuck what others think about your comment.

I know I have.

(Lemmy is rad as fuck)

As for the reposting content, are you referring to cross posting? I've noticed people doing it to my posts.

I think it's a good thing as maybe some people have lemmy.ml defederated and I still want people who use lemmy to have content so they stay and grow the federation.

Again, the points are made up and the updoots don't matter. Peace.

A TL:DR

Sociopaths, in their own best interests, knowingly promote over-performing losers into middle-management (clueless), groom under-performing losers into sociopaths, and leave the average bare-minimum-effort losers to fend for themselves.

3 types of people: Sociopaths, The Clueless, and Losers.

S - comprises the Darwinian/Protestant Ethic will-to-power types who drive an organization to function despite itself.

L - bare-minimum effort people who have taken a “bad economic bargain” for a steady paycheck (NOT social “loser”).

C - over-performing, extremely (sometimes blindly) loyal losers that are fast-tracked into management.

“The Sociopaths defeated the Organization Men and turned them into The Clueless not by reforming the organization, but by creating a meta-culture of Darwinism in the economy: one based on job-hopping, mergers, acquisitions, layoffs, cataclysmic reorganizations, outsourcing, unforgiving start-up ecosystems, and brutal corporate raiding. In this terrifying meta-world of the Titans, the Organization Man became the Clueless Man. Today, any time an organization grows too brittle, bureaucratic and disconnected from reality, it is simply killed, torn apart and cannibalized, rather than reformed. The result is the modern creative-destructive life cycle of the firm, which I’ll call the MacLeod Life Cycle.”

Life Cycle:

Sociopath recruits bare minimum number of losers to kick off an idea. As business grows and encounters new problems the sociopath fast-tracks overzealous losers into the Clueless layer to help organize the chaos. Once the amount of easily extracted value hits diminishing returns the company is cannibalized, recycling only the rare nuggets of value and discarding the rest.

Sociopaths and Losers typically have no loyalty but the Clueless are typically incapable of being anything but loyal to the end.

“Here is the ultimate explanation of Michael Scott’s careers: they are put into a position of having to explain their own apparent, unexpected and unexamined success. It is easy to explain failure. Random success is harder. Remember, they are promoted primarily as passive pawns to either allow the Sociopaths to escape the risks of their actions, or to make way for the Sociopaths to move up faster. They are presented with an interesting bit of cognitive dissonance: being nominally given greater power, but in reality being safely shunted away from the pathways of power. They must choose to either construct false narratives or decline apparent opportunities."

The show is made to give an outlook from The Clueless perspective rather than the typical Loser perspective.
