  • Damn, we've lowered the bar for journalism to plausible?

  • Pretty convenient it's always a nameless generic bad guy for the actual bad guys though.

  • True.

    But do you believe the actual people commiting the genocide and manipulating Facebook shouldn't be held accountable for their actions?

  • It's wild how we have simplified all modern complex issues to "it's because of the (fill in the blank extremely popular bad guys)"

    Guess it's not worth thinking about the actual issues.

  • I'd imagine is because Myanmars situation is way more complicated than Facebook "undoubtedly caused a genocide".

    Seems like it's getting trivialized to shit on Facebook

  • That's a large portion of what's here as well though...

  • Did that title take anyone else a few tries to understand?

    Like I feel like it'd be easier to understand if they put "reopen stores that the labor board finds" or something

  • Oh yeah, I'm not trying to blame a fan base over the actions of a group/artist. I also don't know what type of music the original post is about. Maybe they do make music thats like "we are Nazis and so are you if you sre listening" and then I'd probably be understanding of consequences of being fans.

    But that Nazi salute is definitely not the only documented racism by Pantera members, and I'm sure you know that.

    That doesn't make their fans racist imo

  • Oh yeah, at it's root, it was already bad.

    I'm always interested in a decent discussion or thought experiment though, even if I completely disagree with the other person. 99% are so lazy nowadays it's not even interesting reading their copy/paste comments that have been recycled for the last decade

  • Even without defining those parameters, I also thought it was sort of strange to compare a political party vs country.

  • It's an irrelevant question leading into a off topic point that you'd like to make. If you'd like to deliver a point, go ahead and comment it. Not my job to try and land your point for you though.

  • I'm confused by the whole comment line. Do I seem like I'm outraging, or have any strong opinions any way that needs to be clarified?

  • What a strange and leading question.

  • Nazis are obviously bad, but this comment makes me think that anyone you don't like/like their comments/replies, you consider a Nazi?

  • Seems like anything could be a slur if used in an offensive context then, right?

    Like, if I said "okay tomato", you could take it as offensive it in turns tomato into a slur.

    I guess I'm just thinking while typing here, but if that's what a slur is, maybe we need a new term for contextless offensive words?

  • Just curious. Would saying something like "youngin" be considered a slur as well then?

  • Death, taxes and this post on Lemmy

  • I'm sure it's true, but do we poll over everything now? I feel like there are better, more scientific sources to use than a CBS poll.

    I just saw a poll about Bluetooth headphones being unhealthy for you earlier so I just feel like this in general and am using this as a place to put my thoughts tbh.

    I just feel like we are putting to much faith into opinions of the "masses", and believing what we read online.

    A lot of things can be actually proven in other ways.
