    Wouldn’t a tankie instance have more women?

    Your response seems almost defensive, which is weird. Lemmy is definitely overwhelming male. That’s not an inherently bad thing, so I don’t get the defensive tone here or taking OP to task about data methods.

    Disagree all you want, but this website is incredibly male dominated. I don’t think OP needs to do a peer-reviewed, double-blind study to say so.

    People are downvoting cuz OP said this site is becoming misogynistic plus OP didn’t include the right “sample size.”

    But can we be fucking honest? This website is incredibly male dominated. Like why are we arguing this? I woulda figured it was closer to like 95% male users…

    And many folks (read: men) on this website don’t like calling out the reality that these heavily male-skewed outlooks can be misogynistic. Like, yeah, you bring tons of men in a room with no women, people will start to say misogynistic shit. It’s not reddit-level bad, but I’ve definitely noticed it.

    Are you serious!? First of all, Haunter is indeed S-tier design, but so is Gengar???

    Here’s a list of a FEW middle evos who have far better designs than their first/last evos: Wartortle, Dragonair, Arctibax, Dolliv, Rhydon, Dottler — I could go on….!

    Am ready, willing, and able to fight to the death over these opinions, so come at me!!!




  • These deaths are policy choices by lawmakers who value ‘business’ over people’s lives. There is no justification whatsoever to licensing someone who drove drunk and killed someone.

    This isn’t fucking hard. It’s simple: if you drive drunk and hurt/kill someone, you permanently lose your license to drive. Forever. No exceptions.

    One of the main reasons people oppose these types of consequence is for business: people rely on cars to get to work, so if you ban a bunch of people from driving, employees can’t get to work, which is bad for business.

    It’s fucking sick. I’m so tired of living in a country where lawmakers put economic interests over people’s lives every. single. time. If it’s ever safety vs money—money always win every time. On so many fundamental levels, government in the US moves farther and farther away from serving the people, this is an example of that, and I’m fucking done. We need new governments; we need a new social contract.
