  • That’s cool, you should specify from the onset that your experience comes from a place outside of the actual country where the “woke” culture war originated and is mainly happening, and you should still link stats to demonstrate that the majority of people there have a misunderstanding of what the word means like you claimed. Claims made without evidence can be dismissed without evidence, and most people in the country driving the “woke” culture war still know what the word means.



  • I’m not sure how to do spoilers so spoiler warning for anyone reading.

    That isn’t how the Ken revolution ends. It ends by saying that they will eventually get as much rights as women have in the real world, again emphasizing the fact that women do not have equal rights or opportunities to men and that society should fix that (which is the literal definition of woke). It ends by saying “progress is being made, will continue to be made, and ought to continue to be made” not by maintaining the status quo. It seems like you missed just a few extremely crucial lines in the movie and that led you to this wrong conclusion that the movie is somehow not woke or not leftist, which it undeniably is.

    Unfortunately I still have to use Reddit for D&D stuff, otherwise I’d be able to switch more easily. Also the subreddits I used to be able to browse for hours just don’t exist here so I can only basically get on Lemmy for maybe 5 minutes at a time before I’m bored and have to close it. Maybe it’ll continue to grow and get better in the future; here’s hoping.

    I don’t have anywhere close to enough time to actually be the person who starts and moderates communities. If enough people start them and start participating in them then I’ll start participating again, but “be the change” only works when people have free time to do it. I would love for Lemmy to take off, don’t get me wrong, but all I was saying is that it hasn’t yet and the claim people try to make here that it’s already good enough to replace Reddit is pure cope.

    Lemmy doesn’t have nearly enough people to be worth using as the only platform people are on unless you never engaged with any niche subreddits. I was pretty active on subs where only like 100 people participated, so finding things like that on Lemmy are impossible. Lemmy is only decent for tech people at this point, it needs to get a tremendous amount of extra people joining to be good enough for anyone else to drop Reddit entirely. And even then, lots of info exists on Reddit and nowhere else that still make it a useful tool for other purposes.

    Sorry I just don’t buy that a large portion of people are already using Lemmy and nothing else (you might be, idk) unless they only care about memes of beans and nothing else.
