    It’s less about “new content” on Lemmy and more about “I have a social media addiction and need constant content to satisfy my insatiable media habit”. A lot of us are guilty of this, me included.

      Honestly, I’ve been enjoying not having an infinite amount of content to scroll through anymore. I get off of it a lot more and do other things. It’s been nice.

      Plus, memes last longer on here. I started falling behind on Reddit every week. Here a meme might last up to a month

      This is sad, but true ! But I have to say that lemmy decreased my binge scrolling I had with reddit, so it partially solved that addiction.

      I used to be into sadism, necrophilia, and bestiality… but then I realized I was just beating a dead horse.

    I don’t understand how some people worship Pop idols and defend them against any criticism, doesn’t matter how many private jets you own if you end up taking the same amount of flights on one jet or three jets. one Private jet is already one too many in the context of combating climate change.

      I haven’t said anything on the subject before, because I don’t care very much, but I don’t know what the alternative is supposed to be. It’s not like someone who is that famous can walk into a public airplane without putting her own safety at risk and causing trouble for other passengers.

      It’s also well known that conservatives really hate her because she told her fans to vote and these memes are part of their effort to discredit her. Whether the point has any merit or not, it’s obvious who started the trend and who it’s helping.

        1. you don’t need to fly everywhere.
        2. you can totally fly first class. damn she can afford to have first class to herself.
        3. even if the private flight is the “logical” step, you can still critizise it. things can be complex.
        4. it’s a small and complex balance to keep supporting women in art and still shitting on billionaires, but we can do it.

      The people defending Swift don’t worship her, they’re just scared she’s being criticized for the wrong reasons. They think everyone calling her a polluter is lying or mistaken about their political motivations, and is actually influenced by misogyny.

    Noooo you can’t make new memes or enjoy lemmy-specific content! We need political memes and 5th-generation Facebook reposts ONLY!

    I was going to order an “obnoxious complaining about other people having fun wrong” meme, but you just used the last one.

      Maybe people just don’t find the same meme posted 309 times to be that interesting of content.
