Worst thing about it is that this occurs in all social media - Lemmy ain't an exception.
I made a post asking how to not get insta-banned by the hive conscious moderator here or offend anyone and was merely told to "get good at posting".

Taking fewer risks because you feel less secure is the most basic idea. You ever walked carefully on ice? Driven slower because of bad weather?

Congratulations. You used your brain instead of "getting gud."
A lot of sanctioned countries also don’t overthrow their governments like the US hopes for because desperation doesn’t always look like someone picking up a gun and going to war for epic democracy. Sometimes that desperation is just keeping your head down to receive the next meal.
Obviously the answer is to increase sanctions and fund right wing terrorism. Eventually the people will get desperate enough to do what the CIA wants.

It’s who you know, bro!”You’d think after every ten seconds where some rich guy admits he’s a nepo baby, the great man myth would be dead.
it kind of is now that you can go online and see every "selfbootstrapped" (m/b)illionaire is a giant entitled baby
On the bright side, it is heartening to see Iwata's influence and decency still influencing devs today
Didn't Iwata say that when he cut his own salary to keep them working?
The fear of being fired in this case can be described metaphorically as a "poisoned swamp" preventing people from progressing in their path
