  • Saying you care VS actually helping people are two different things bruh. Caring doesn't get homeless people off the street, caring doesn't feed the hungry, caring doesn't help people with their bills

    So why don't you stop astroturfing like you care online and get out there and actually help people.

    PS: and if you do actually help people, then my message is intended at you.











  • To put it another way…

    There's nohing to the debate. The opposing views would be the fantasy world that you want and the reality that I'm OK with living in.

    and I will happily call them out for it

    And that's all what online leftism is about, being really loud online, and non-existent in real life.

    That's another reason not to even waste time debating as the only place I hear all the Marxist bullshit is online. Makes me wonder if all the chatter is coming from professional troll farms in nefarious countries.







  • I don’t feel like contributing for free to some portal run by a private company.

    100%!!! The only thing I did differently was deleting all my usernames. I’m not contributing to all Reddit’s ad tracking, AI training, privacy invading nonsense.

    I still go back to my favorite subs (r/gme_meltdown and r/buttcoin) to read only, but that’s it. Also there’s still tons of active BB boards (not on social media) for all my niche hobbies, soI really don’t have a reason to.

    I’m not participating in that dumpster fire ever again. At best I’ll rip content from Reddit to post here on Lemmy.




  • The problem most people have is their credit, not the mortgage payments. Both my mortgages (I’m not a landlord, but I do airbnb 3 months out of the year) are $1500/month, and most people pay that and more just for rent.

    Nevermind the fact that some people are eligible to buy a home, but think they won’t qualify so they dont try. I was in that group with a credit score of 680, which is acceptable for the first time home owners program. I was accepted, and now I own 2 homes.
