@lemmy.mlDON'T BE FOOLED! This post was made by the cat! It wants narrower TV stands so it can knock them over easier when its owner forgets to feed it!
I believe you've answered your own question.
Lemmy isn't Marxist-only. The majority of Lemmy users are what the more vocal Lemmygrad and Hexbear users deride as "libs." As a thought experiment, imagine that you are one of us for a moment and then browse Local on one of those.
Accusing people like Stallman of being rapists dilutes the meaning of the word.
Is he creepy? Sure. Does he have rather unpopular opinions on what constitutes pedophilia? Yep. Does he go around forcing people to have sex with him? No.
I assume you're basing the abuse argument on the WWE logo in the corner. Everyone who didn't notice that (me included, at first) just see a girl with a "how dare he?" look on her face. Which is actually pretty funny.
In case you're wondering where all the downvotes are coming from.
I still maintain my boycott of Amazon over the one-click patent.
It's a hassle to buy stuff online without using Amazon. The patent expired years ago. Probably no other person is still boycotting them over it (not that it was ever an effective boycott in the first place). But I just can't bring myself to buy from them.
Writing. Specifically, tech writing. I've got an intuitive sense for it, but other than business communication and the occasional bit of internal documentation I don't have any desire to do it professionally.
I get along great with our tech writer, though, since I'm the only other person at the company who can hold a discussion about the Oxford comma.
Favorite? No idea.
Least favorite? Alan Alda in Canadian Bacon. Dammit man, you were good in MASH, why can't you act in anything else?
