i’m going to call this the hegemony of the rich… but what’s the word for when people adopt the values of their oppressors?

i think you need to run an instance of your own.
(p.s. i don’t know though, find a lemmy dev community)
who upvotes is part of the data provided, i think, but most lemming clients don’t show it….
i think i read that somewhere once
xor@lemm.eeto politics @lemmy.world•Poor Trump supporters are about to get a rude awakening — but we shouldn't be celebrating91·1 year agopoor is such a weird word… in most cases it just means bad. Poor food quality, poor planning, poor critical thinking skills, etc….
but when we refer to a person, poor means a lack of money?
isn’t it just baking in the notion that impoverished people are bad?
all of life has dying built in… that’s a pretty big limit to your limitless growth….
in an ecosystem when a population doesn’t balance, that’s called a plague and it kills themselves and everything else.
yeah i want more on the voice changer

but fuck that noise, i only accept definitions from the 1876 edition of Merrium-Webster… all other usages are wrong.

xor@lemm.eeto politics @lemmy.world•Democratic strategist calls for ‘new generation of leaders’ as party plots response to Trump’s victory102·1 year agothe DNC needs to be completely overhauled or thrown out. Bernie would’ve definitely beat Trump but they actively conspired against him, and then when sued for fraud, claimed they never said they’re actually democratic, in spite of the name… and won in court.
the GOP tried to stop Trump as well, and in spite of being complete pieces of shit, they actually are democratic and couldn’t stop him.
but, as they say, the entire system is stupid and designed to fuck us over.
i see this continuing until the collapse of the usa, and probably the entire planet’s ecosystem
xor@lemm.eeto Mod Abuse Hotline@lemmy.sdf.org•I apparently got shadow banned almost a year ago from blahaj, for a comment I made on lemmy.worldEnglish11·1 year agodude is masculine in every definition i’ve found (looked it up) except for a city slicker new to a ranch…
i’ve always known it to be gender neutral… but i have a female friend that gets offended every time someone calls her that.
but the fact that it keeps happening means that it’s gender neutral to all of those people too (she’s a fairly feminine female).
that said, it’s best to just call people terms that they are comfortable with, not ones that you’re comfortable calling them.
personally, i find calling a single person they/them a little obtuse, but it’s not really that hard. (slightly confusing when there’s a question of whether im referring to them or a group of people).

xor@lemm.eeto A Boring Dystopia@lemmy.world•Health Insurance Leaders Pressured DOJ To Charge Luigi Mangione2·1 year agorittenhouse should’ve been federal… but he (supposedly) crossed state lines to enforce the law and ended up murdering someone….
i think he hoped to murder someone but still, it’s different and pretty clearly a federal case.
….
they definitely selectively enforce it, like when some anarchists drove from portland to Seattle in order to spray paint a courthouse during a protest: that became federal charges because they anarchists, mostly….
i was honestly surprised when states were charging luigi instead of the feds at first
i saw this movie and it was great… but the mandela effect deleted it from this timeline
xor@lemm.eeto A Boring Dystopia@lemmy.world•Health Insurance Leaders Pressured DOJ To Charge Luigi Mangione2·1 year agothat’s not how it works….
luigi, allegedly, traveled across state lines for the sole purpose of the killing, and immediately left the state.
Zapeta-Calil was living in ny and committed a murder while he was there. He didn’t travel there just to burn someone… he was there already and did it….
but god damn that’s a horrible way to die. the worst i can imagine except for some deliberately slow torture….
