Freedom of speech. Except the speech we don't like.

I have encountered this "American social issues transplanted" hand waving a lot in Europe. For example, I know a lot of Swedes who say this about a bunch of casually racist stuff (proclaiming Sweden to be very anti-racist). Meanwhile up north you see a lot of Classic American cars which are often casually emblazoned with Confederate flags and even displayed in proximity to Nazi memorabilia. Down south you have a rising right-wing party support fuelled by fear of immigrants from Africa/Middle East (eg. The non-white ones).

I understand you're trying to educate yourself and that's great, don't take this as dunking on you more, as I feel like you're in the smart minority by trying to learn and reason. It just really bugs me when I hear people say it's a US problem. A lot of Europe is holding a lot of racist views (and in a lot of cases, horrific colonial history) and then turn around to say things like "why are my football players kneeling, BLM is an American issue".

Only the US is allowed to ruin elections.

I feel like this is the part that bothers me the most about these articles. There's no disclaimer it is AI, there's a journalist name and photo on there, but it's quite obviously an AI generated summary.

At the top of the page. As soon as I see something like that I assume it's a low effort article to get some commission off sales.

I understand the sub we are in and that this is a great game. But half of the games articles I see nowadays are what appears to be low quality commissioned articles for games on sale and also often AI written. I can see why someone would downvote that.

This feels borderline criminal. Yeah it's 11 years old, but if someone told you that an early access game stays in early access a decade, that means you need to buy it again on release, would you?

You unironically think 43 year old shouldn't be on Lemmy?

This took me way too long to get and sent me on a search to see if Ms. was ever used as a pronoun for women with dead dads specifically.

I'm a native speaker and not an American, but I didnt find this weird. I would probably say "do you have any bigger ones" not ask about the turkey cum.
