Ah, see I'd seen that, but (before I realised the musk salute connection) I thought a roman hug was a reference to its own thing (like maybe getting stabbed in the back?), rather than just a tongue in cheek reference to the roman salute.
Thanks for the help π
Thanks, the penny eventually dropped.
Also fuck that noise.
Ok, rather than edit my reply to AbsolutelyNotAVelociraptor, I'll reply again here because your comment helped the penny drop, and I've read the conversation again now realising that the reference to the hand gesture is to the dickhead's salute, so I get the first comment, not sure about the "roman hug", and assuming the last person is being sarcastic, saying what someone on the right might say because that's how they defend musk?
Sorry, my brain isn't entirely in gear yet and I think there may be too many levels of sarcasm overlapping π
Ok, thanks, and I agree. For some reason I thought that last comment was meant to be a funny punchline or something, I think I'm just completely misreading the conversation being shown π
I guess I too misunderstood, what does being neurodiverse have anything to do with it?
So⦠Queer folks have created queerphobia? And Black and brown people, racism? And disabled people, ableism? And abuse victims, their own abuse? And so on�
Because those (E: not to mention poverty, which is bad enough on its own, but massively exacerbated by the above) sure as fucking hell stand in the way of and deeply impact personal fucking fulfilment and happiness.
This shit is nothing more than the liberal way of telling people to pull themselves up by their bootstraps.

Fuck this gaslighting victim blaming noise.
I am aware thanks, but like Zero22xx, I never see it used on lemmy, probably because of compatibility issues across instances/services and even versions of each.
I also personally prefer the ID being easily visible right under the image, in large text, rather than the small text you get from hovering over it. This way both those who use screen readers (who don't have the issue with small hover text), and those who use the ID for other reasons all have it accessible right there. π
Plus itβs a pretty cool little writing exercise.
Not half, it can be a real challenge sometimes! Thankfully there are online image to text converters that do that part, but some images can be surprisingly difficult to describe, especially if I'm low on spoons and or the brain fog is in (E: so I generally move on to an easier one lol).. π¬
Meta have already tried, and in an almost unanimous move, users of the fediverse decided to defederate from them to not give them the opportunity to.
Of course they'll keep trying, but the whole point of decentralisation is that if or when that happens, those who don't want anything to do with it, just move on to a virtual space away from the corporation.
Sure, it sucks to always be "on the run", but at least here we can be, vs on a centralised network, where the corporations control 100% of it and we as users have no viable alternative.
So my point stands - this isn't about "self fulfilment and happiness", nor is it in any way a motivational quote.
