    It’s when people don’t get taught that shit is within all of us, the good people just give it the reign less often. Just because you have shitty thoughts doesn’t mean you’re shit, what you actually end up doing is what matters.





  • Doesn’t make too much sense though, because OP said they love AI. If what you said was true, then they should have experienced the bubble of AI lovers, which they don’t.

    Also, it’s quite evident that Lemmy is not at all “designed to feed ‘engagement’”, yet it is prevalent here anyway. “Scaled” sorts are the default, which specifically promote the less popular opinions.

    This has nothing to do with structural differences, OP simply engages with different kind of people irl and online.





  • It requires a lot of self-awareness and lack of ego to actually get rid of these shitty behaviors. I myself was pretty shitty when I was in my 20s simply because I didn’t know better and humans do have pretty shitty behaviors by default. It requires so much work to get rid of if you’re not initially being brought up that way and have lots of trauma.

    I feel you. Today, I go around and see people saying and even believing they are doing good and at the same time doing the shitty things you talk about. They are either not being aware of it or actively ignoring it because it’s too painful for them to admit. And it’s so hard for me because you just never know how someone is until they actually reveal their problematic behaviors. Sometimes it’s fast, like someone admitting to supporting right-wing politics, but more often it’s very circumstantial and you go along thinking someone is good until they’re in that specific kind of situation where they reveal their shitty side.

    That’s why personally, I select for awareness. I look for signs that they think about how they think and that they are able to admit they were shitty at some point, but trying to do better. And even that fails sometimes, because there are still people that do these things just to virtue signal without any desire to actually do better.

    It’s fucking exhausting. But like you say, you can choose your people and your environment. There are actually good people out there. They’re just soooo hard to find. I have found like 6 right now. And I venture outside of this only veeeeeery rarely. That works for me.

    That is just wrong though. There have been plenty of reputable studies with good methodology that do show differences between the sexes at certain tasks.

    That does not mean that one or the other is better in general, it means women and men complement each other.

    It also doesn’t mean that these innate advantages/disadvantages at certain tasks are significant enough so they are impossible to overcome, there are plenty of men good at communicating or whatever, even though women are generally slightly better at it, and so on.
