I would love it if the government banned Reddit.

Lemmy I could live without. If any users are making their livelihoods on Lemmy or Reddit, they should find something more productive to do.

by Stovetop@lemmy.world

I nominate this for the least aware comment on lemmy. We truly have a gem here. "If someone is making their living in a way I don't understand, they should get a real job. After all, it doesn't affect me, so it must be fine."

Truly well-spoken, just look at all of the many high-paying jobs available to people of all skill levels, I mean, it's not enough that an entire generation needs to hustle and convert every waking moment into opportunities to generate capital in order to barely survive.. but also please do it in a way that Stovetop understands and supports. Otherwise, it's not "productive", whatever high-minded values that meaningless phrase is supposed to represent. Clueless.

Null empathy, null emotional intelligence, null consideration. Truly a masterpiece.

Stovetop please stay the way you are, we want to study you.
