    The part where there’s 3.8 billion men on the planet, and although the stats are hard to put together, lots of contradictions, they point to less than 1% of them being incarcerated (for all crime not just crime against women) even vastly exaggerating that to 5% (to account for men not being caught etc) leaves 95% of the general male population being decent and no threat. Blaming men, when men aren’t the issue is sexist. Blaming religion, poor education etc would be less sexist and aimed more towards what the actual issue is and help work towards a cure, man Vs bear does nothing but divide and spread fear. Stats show that black people perform a higher amount of crime than other races, does this mean we should be racist? Does this mean you’d pick a random bear over a random black person? I don’t think it does, because it’s not the colour of their skin, nor is it the apparatus between some bodies legs that defines them. Blaming the wrong thing is sexist, or racist in both these cases. I’m not saying women aren’t walking around terrified, but a lot of that has to do with polar discussion that doesn’t help like man Vs bear telling them they should live in fear and does nothing to help the actual problems. And if you don’t believe that to be true you are part of a much bigger problem humanity is facing, misinformation and fear mongering.

    You know I can’t afford fancy clothes. So I just wear cheaper brands. I don’t tell everyone wearing fancy clothes that there are cheaper brands available, I just let them be them and wear what they like. Maybe if I could afford it I would wear them too.

    Really struggling to see everybody’s problem in the thread. If you don’t want to pay for an app don’t. If you’re happy with a less polished app use that. Why is everyone so intent on controlling what others should and shouldn’t do when it has absolute zero bearing on them?

    I’m a Dev, I spend lots of my time in Linux, some might call me a power user I’ve been doing it for a lot of years, probably longer than most. Yet I use windows on my personal machine, I use windows because I like the polish, I spend all my time fucking around in Linux to get stuff working stuff that just works out the box in other os. I get why Linux is good I get why people like it, personally I like an easier life, I don’t want to spend 2 hours configuring some container to play a game or piece of software that would just work on windows. It’s part of what you pay for. The apps are much the same, I’ve tried many of the Lemmy apps since I moved here, some better than others all fairly decent but sync has a polish and presentation that is unmatched (in my personal opinion, your experience may be different) and I’m happy to compensate a developer for his time spent building the app, he gets to eat I get to mindlessly scroll it’s win win. Well it is until people start shitting their opinions all over the place.
