I don’t need excuses

I think what’s missing is the request to be more special than others.

There are aquarium groups, but I’ve never seen them comment that you should shut up if you don’t own an aquarium. There is a “dull men” group, and I never saw them trying to forbid someone to speak in their room if they are too interesting or too female.

If you don’t want out-group people to participate, your solution is not a platform that allows everybody to participate, and then scold people if they do. It just makes it seem like it’s a deliberate setup to be able to tell people “You made a mistake. You have the wrong gender” - and if not that, they at least demand special treatment among the equals on Lemmy, also not a character trait that people appreciate.

Maybe Arbee’s? Taco Beell? Starbeeucks?

It’s usually off to the left. Even in this screenshot it’s between G, H and B, which is to the left in the letter part alone, even if not taking into account the numpad.

The most centered on the keyboard in front of me would be between K, M and comma.

Aside from purely theoretical, philosophical interest (suuuure), it doesn’t really matter, does it?

“Ah yes, now that you showed us the opinion of these online strangers on your phone, we will be ok angering your father - the man who famously hires ex-legionnaires for protection of his family - for a little hanky panky.”

But that’s really sad, if you think about it.

“Generally in the USA, it’s considered suspicious.”

That means generally, Americans are unaware of these father-child activities.

That means generally, Americans didn’t have a good father.

Now, a lot of people would intuitively jump to “Nah my dad was ok” - but if this isn’t normal behaviour for you, then you’re just unaware of how bad your whole frame of reference is. That is a tough pill to swallow, though.

“Let people enjoy things” is a thought terminating clichee, though.

Not really different than “I didn’t order a yappuccino”.

It’s denying any criticism, and with that mindset you get flat earthers, vaccine deniers, and trump voters.

In other words: “Let people criticize things”.

Nobody is denying anyone a counter argument, but “let other people do what they want” is not a valid one.

I don’t care about this show, just fed up with it becoming the standard to validate any behavior with those thought stoppers.
