That something you’re referring to is just fear. Fear of nothingness fear of death fear of the unknown etc… Fear of this being it. Fear of the end. That’s all it boils down to. Thus they have to create something to answer that fear. But it’s not like there’s a universal truth they’re all circling around. They’re all just creating something to address that fear.

njm1314@lemmy.worldto Fediverse@lemmy.ml•Feddit.org officially announces they will ban criticism of Israel and pro-Palestinian posts and comments.11·5 days agoSounds like you need to use a different app then. Cuz I’m pretty sure you can block instances on most other ones. I use connect and I blocked a number of instances.
njm1314@lemmy.worldto Fediverse@lemmy.ml•Feddit.org officially announces they will ban criticism of Israel and pro-Palestinian posts and comments.547·5 days agoSo they’re basically declaring themselves a fascist instance. I mean calling for end of Zionism is calling for an end of a fascist ideal, therefore that instance is declaring itself a fascist organization. Simple. Yeah no one should be Federated with this place.
njm1314@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Is it possible to listen to artists who are terrible people without feeling guilty?4·7 days agoI don’t think so. You’re always going to remember. You can be good at pushing it down. But it’s always going to be in the back of your mind. Just depends how skilled you are at ignoring that part of your mind really.
Buddy have I got some news for you. You can actually delete bookmarks when you’re done with them.
Yeah those all seem like great uses of bookmarks and save functions.
I’ll never understand you people that need like 50 tabs open at once.

njm1314@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What corporation would you want gone COMPELTELY?1·21 days agoI’d argue the publicly owned ones are actually the bigger problems. At least with privately owned ones there’s usually a single individual or small group of individuals that can be influenced threatened and held accountable, or what passes for accountability these days. With publicly own companies though there’s this concept of the nebulous shareholder. There’s such a wide range of people who own the shares of the company that they are untouchable yet at the same time completely ignorable. Companies don’t have to answer to the shareholders because the shareholders don’t feel involved enough or care enough to actually speak out. Instead it’s the concept of the shareholder. Which is actually more dangerous. That anonymity makes it a more brutal and ravenous concept. Private companies are able to think more long term because the private owner is able to think long-term, or longer rather, where is publicly owned companies that Anonymous shareholder concept requires constant unending and immediate growth. Which is a cancerous concept. For society and the planet both.
Not that either is good of course, just that one’s more dangerous. Also Nestle is very very evil, publicly owned by the way.

njm1314@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•If I gave you a million dollars but you must give it back in 1 year, what do you do with it?4·1 month agoBut if you’re going back and taking the money when I got it how do I keep anything?
njm1314@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•If I gave you a million dollars but you must give it back in 1 year, what do you do with it?9·1 month agoAm I reading this right or is everyone else in the thread reading it wrong? It seems to me what you’re saying is that you go back in time and take it away after the fact like we never had it. So all these answers about buying stocks or bonds or everything are pointless. Objectively the answer is to have as much fucking fun as you can cuz it’s going to be taken away with timey wimey stuff before it ever happened. Am I right?

And if they had expressed a personal belief I probably wouldn’t have even responded. However they talked about a general phenomenon.
