I feel like things on Lemmy were pretty chill several months ago, and that’s started to change.
People used to talk each other like they would talk to a neighbor. Now I get the sense that people have become quick to be negative, attack, and not be constructive.
Am I crazy in feeling like the vibe has changed?
Every year is an election year somewhere.
Yeah but this is an AMERICAN PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION YEAR!!!
that’s like the super bowl of elections
Sent from my freedom phone motherfucker
What the fuck is a superbowl
A really nice owl
Can I pet it?
Only if you twist your hand all the way around like an owls head before you pet it, otherwise the owl won’t recognize it as a friendly entity and will bite.
You mean a brave patriotic eagle! America’s awesome upgrade to the bog standard owl.
Yep it’s time for the entire online world to suffer for 3 months
3 months? Ha! Try a whole year. American election season, baby!!!
This isn’t just any election year though. 64ish governments around the world will be holding elections this year, and authoritarian populism is on the rise globally.
