Yep. Tiresome and it doesn’t actually do anything about the issue. You could even argue it gives people a false sense of action and makes them less likely to do basic shit like vote.

So we should just echo chamber it on every Lemmy thread? Do you really think there’s anyone here on the other side of this issue?

There are any number of things you could do that might actually have a meaningful impact if that’s what’s so important to you. Gloom and dooming on a meme comments thread is not one of them. Don’t act like I’m stopping you from changing the world here, I’m just saying feeling bad for yourself on a forum full of people who already agree with you isn’t productive.

Organize a protest or write a politician if you feel so strongly about it. No? Then let people enjoy internet memes in peace without making every single thread about these issues.

Jesus christ even in a meme thread about skiing. It’s Lemmy…we all know about global warming you don’t need to point it out in every fucking post.

Like, look…I know it’s important to talk about. But maybe, just maybe, we don’t need to make every single comment section about global warming and eating the rich. Just a thought.

Article calls it “longlife,” not “lifelong.”
