I'm oversimplifying here, but it's because it requires conformity. Everyone has to change themselves to fit the system, and if they can't or don't, then they are generally not treated very well.

The polar opposite problem is when there's too much individual freedom and people are allowed to harm others with impunity, so once again some people will be treated very poorly.

Well, the question was probably disingenuous. There may not be any stupid questions but there are questions intended to start arguments about politics.

[-] [email protected] 22 points 4 months ago

Either way, the OP knows the answer now.

[-] [email protected] 12 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

I wasn't being disingenuous. I honestly wanted to know.

Edit: yyeahhh, no politics on 'no stupid questions'

[-] [email protected] 22 points 4 months ago

Fantastic.

Makes me think of that index page with "recursive" pointing to itself.

It’s just the .world we choose to live on

You may live here but my address is WWW.FREE-SPEACH.AMERICA/BALD_EAGLE/🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲

jk, I honestly have no idea what I did to warrant the removal except maybe I'm just too much for the mods.

[-] [email protected] 8 points 4 months ago

Imo it’s overmodding…and a good shitpost ✌️

[-] [email protected] 5 points 4 months ago

I thanked the mods for the meme at least. Gotta stay humble.

You are thinking of Kbin. The dev had some health issues that prevented further development, Mbin is the successor to Kbin. That said, Kbin may continue too if they recover.

This would probably be a better fit for [email protected]

[-] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

Thanks fam

Edit:

https://lemmy.world/post/26623480 incase anyone is curious.

Turns out I was being disingenuous and baiting people with controversial topics like "authoritarianism = bad"

Probably cuz you're obviously trolling with that question. And you know it.

[-] [email protected] 8 points 4 months ago

In a way they answered your question.

[-] [email protected] 6 points 4 months ago

Oh, so that's why I couldn't reply lol

[-] [email protected] 5 points 4 months ago

This is so dense it’s crazy

[-] [email protected] 5 points 4 months ago

no such thing as a stupid question, just stupid people.

[-] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago

Thanks ~~Mr~~ ~~Ms~~ Mr Garrison!

[-] [email protected] 4 points 4 months ago

Maybe this a removal to avoid heavily moderating the post? Still bad regardless.

[-] [email protected] 5 points 4 months ago

You could always lock the post

[-] [email protected] 17 points 4 months ago

Approving the post and then locking it before anyone could comment would be a hilarious and fitting way to answer the question!

[-] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago
[-] [email protected] 5 points 4 months ago

New here, haven’t seen any locked posts so I wasn’t aware it was an option. That makes much more sense.
