Ask Lemmy

I'm sick of hearing about Ed Sheeran. There are and have been people who have apolitical stances because they know how absolutely fucked the USA is and has been to where we can do so little. People who become so wired up about politics and societal issues, are in a miserable cycle of cynicism, pessimism, doomer-mindset that it drags everybody down within their presence.

I think it's okay for some of us to try and get some leverage on the lives that we do have and try to enjoy them again. I'm not saying it's OKAY about where everything seems to be, because it's not. I'm just saying we need hope, solace and sanity in these times than dwelling ourselves into miserable hopelessness that it costs us our future.

I wouldn't know

Any information I know about H3H3 was involuntary communicated to me.

Apparently some big name YouTube guy cheated on his wife or something? I never heard of him before, but every site I go on keeps talking about it. Most I can say is "cheating is bad". Is that having an opinion on it? Like I don't really care what happens to them once everyone moves on in a few days.

I don’t have an opinion about trans people.

They exist. It’s fine.

I do have an opinion about people that go out of their way to make lives harder for other people though. Fuck them.

When I walk into a public bathroom, I don't care what genitals anybody else in the room has. In fact, I don't care what genitals anybody has. I suppose I would care a little if I intended to have sex with them.

Anything Prince Harry and Megan Markle related. Just like the Konstant Kardashian onslaught, I turn away.

Harry and Meghan. Sick of hearing about them.

Feels like everything. I mean I might have an offhand opinion but really everything is kinda unimportant relative to the environment and facism now.

Pokemon cards.

That streamer who cheated on his wife. First time I've heard about him but I keep seeing people talk about it.

I live in tiny city in Slovakia. We had voting for a mayor yesterday. The campaign was sooooooooo dirty like we are the capital or smth. Like calm tf down

Anything regarding a person of YouTube fame. I just pretend they don’t exist.

My boss apparently called me a terrible person and wouldn’t recommend anyone hiring me. I know I’m a good person and very much hireable in my field so I’m like, meh?

Anything involving influences and streamers.

Your mom and the rugby team gangbang thing.

The H3 cheating scandal. Everybody involved sucks.

I dont know if its still going on but the Lindsey Clancy trial. I think she killed her kids and some people are using it to hate women and some are using it to hate men. I dont know why people are so invested. All I need to know was that its undisputed that she killed them and therefore she can be locked away. However the court chooses to do it jail or mental hospital doesnt matter to me.

Ignorance is bliss.

I don't follow sports, nor Hollywood, nor most political news, no social media sites, and I block ads at work and home.

People usually don't like awkward silence so they try to make small talk and I just don't participate lol.

I don't have much of an opionion on anything people on here on IRL go about.

And they all basically assume you are on the 'other side' of the issue if you say this.

I find it all confusing, but I guess if you you fill your days with agonizing over whatever political, pop culture, or internet drama stuff, well yeah anyone who doesn't would be very offensive to you.

Even in my own hobbies I mostly avoid the nonsense dramatic opinions and in-fighting so many folks have. I don't get the impulse of hostility towards folks who are different than you at all. And I find it weird when I talk about my interests to other folks how they get bent out of shape about how I spend my time doing that stuff rather than watching reality TV or drinking and talking shit about people. My refusal to talk shit about people has gotten me socially shitcanned in a lot of situations in my life... I guess I'm ignorant about how much people bond over being nasty to other people.

Hot pop stars putting out explicit albums.

My sisters in Christ, this isn't the 1950s. I'm not an inspiration for these songs. IDGAF.

H3H3 is apparently in it, atm. Idk anything about any of it.

Ethan Klein’s cheating scandal. Don’t care.

The entire crew sucks, for a myriad of reasons. I stopped caring about his crashing out like a year ago, and even then it was just enjoying the moments of him going completely off the rails.

I have not watched Hasan for a while now, but only because I couldn’t handle hearing about the shit things going on in the world and drama. I imagine he is pleased with the news, since it likely means H3 will be going offline.

Hopefully this prevents H3 from harassing and suing other content creators going forward.

But ultimately, I don’t care. His wife served in the IOF; she deserves no sympathy.

The Will Smith slap

Sports and Celebrities.

There is no more crass commerce than Sports. Rich people buy sport clubs, and then buy victories for them. You can't get more boring than that.

Once there were real Celebrities. People who were something noticable. Today, they are mass-produced by the media, and most of them are not even worth remembering.

In france, we have a joke about a cop trying to get intels about high-schoolers actions, he started a sentence with "Bismillah c'est les ténèbres", that can be translated in "Bismillah it's the shadows". Since it's used as a joke in protests. Some people find this funny, and other people find this islamophobic, I don't have any opinion.

Anything involving celebrities.

i hate every drama. feels artificial, made up to stress you out and wear you down. thats why i insta block anything that is sports, only american politics, furry, trans, india, linux, religion, ideology related. basicly 70% of social media.
