  • I think OPs point is that this “Frank” guy is still in your country’s name.

    That’s like saying there was a King Godzilla once, you get rid of him, and then call your country “Republic of Godzilla.”

    I’m not saying you don’t have a point. I just understand the parent poster’s point too.



  • Mindless negativity has arrived - at least in lemmy.world.

    I have some tech-related subscriptions, so I check those out every now and then, but they have few new posts. So when I browse the Popular section, oy… corporations bad, climate change bad, war bad, economy bad. (Not saying it’s not true, I just want a place I can browse and escape all that for five minutes.)

    And some users (even mods!) have an “all-or-nothing” attitude too, which is infuriating because they won’t drive me away from the cause, but they may drive away others with less patience.

    For example, I say “I support the blue color. Now, I wonder, if metallic blue with a purple hue is really a true blue? And how? Trying to learn. Just curious…” and then someone says “YOU JUST OUTED YOURSELF AS A BLUE HATER!!!”
