yeah… this is why we can’t have nice things.

hopefully this would change soon

I think it’s also important to mention Typst here (https://typst.app/) even tho it’s not directly related to the question. Typst is basically much faster LaTeX alternative with reasonable syntax. For example, take a look at this theme: https://typst.app/universe/package/calmly-touying

even if all of them are pedophiles, you need to talk to them if you want best for this country: you need to change people’s opinions through discussions. this is the only way. It’s other half of the country. if all of them are pedos then we won’t have enough prison cells.

I don’t understand why right and left just isolate themselves from each other: half goes to reddit, half goes to Lemmy. we need to have a platform where both parties can talk to each other and change others minds on things. and Lemmy is much more suited for that.

dude, chill. this is not how you convince someone right wing that they are wrong (if this was ever your goal). I thought Lemmy was supposed to be a place for discussions allowing both parties to make their statements. if we will just shit on right wing here this place won’t be much better than reddit is.

For some reason having a flag of any group / org always feels like an extreme radical support. To the point when it looks bad no matter what the flag is promoting.

I feel like this is due to flags providing too little information on your actual views and just screams “I love X”. In reality it’s always better to properly explain why do you actually like that and what parts of it aren’t that good. Because there is always something not that good. In a perfect world flags would work if they act as a conversation starter about your actual views and opinions. But in real world people don’t often ask those questions and just make assumptions.

I would actually make a flag that says “I love X. Let’s talk about why” to help ignite those conversations instead of making assumptions.
