This makes me nauseous. Block the fuckers out.
If not Threads, what would you suggest to bring the billions of people who are stuck in legacy social media into the Fediverse?
If not Threads, how else can we convince small businesses to have an online presence beyond their Facebook pages?
If not Threads, how else do you want to bring mainstream media out of Twitter?
Leave them there, they fucking suck.
Hate to break out it to you, but the majority of people here suck too
Exhibit A 👆
This was in reference to produced works of science fiction in an environment that rewarded and encouraged schlock. To apply it to people is ignorant, and to tout it as some sort of actual law is disingenuous.
And to interpret my comment literally is utterly stupid.
My point is: this group here may have itself in high regard, but if you get out of the circle jerk you'll realize that the amount of pettiness, short-sightedness, egocentrism and plain meanness that you can find from people on Lemmy is not different from the average person on Facebook.
