My mind has been changed by comments on here.

People can be quite informative, patient, and empathetic. They can write eloquently and persuasively. I'm glad for those people who have helped me change my mind on topics where my view was wrong because of my ignorance or flawed logic.

But in all honesty, I probably would have been better served by in-person public discourse on those topics instead of spending my time reading a bunch of takes from strangers on the internet. In person, you (usually) know everyone participating is real. You can gauge their sincerity by their tone & inflection, facial cues, and body language.

While my mind has been changed by people on here commenting, I still would much rather step away from the internet and talk to people face to face about the topics that effect us the most.

The way you talk to people on Lemmy is unacceptable. The name calling and aggression is not okay. Please do better.

Deezer was playing ICE recruitment ads last year. I think it's important for people to know so they can make a more informed decision.

FYI Pandora was playing ICE recruitment ads on their service last year.
