Here is a reference to what that looks like.

I’m not sure how much I like the presentation here. Another option would be to have tabs between the sorting options and the comments.

If you want to combat people only contributing to the most active thread, maybe sort each instance’s comments by total comments ascending?

If you wanted to leave a top-level comment in the other thread from the view you were in, you could do like a Window Shade type UI where each comment section is contained in a box with a clickable header. Clicking the header collapses the shade, leaving only the header. Kind of like collapsing a comment. The other thread comments could be under the primary thread comments and collapsed (or auto-expanded; maybe that’s a UI setting). Like this:

Heh that’s a hardware issue.

We are very likely moving to hexbear.chat. federation is turned off until we move. Feel free to register for an account!

Voyager has been good. They just implemented a custom emoji fix to that ensures emoji are the correct size regardless of their uploaded size.

You replied to me literally stating that my opinions were flawed from the get go based on very big assumptions.

Typical Redditor behavior, you don’t even stop to look at who you are speaking with, you just assume every comment below yours is somehow the same person, and not possibly someone else who also thinks you’re a total chud.

On what basis do you make such a claim?

This is rational from China’s perspective. Divesting in the American technology pipeline not only weakens America’s grip on the global economy but also positions China as the leader in global technology.

Also, we have more evidence of US putting back doors into technology than we do China. If you’re living in the imperial core, it’s far more likely that the US is monitoring your activities than China is.

Always has been.

These chuds look like cartoon Nazis from some hana-barera cartoon from the 70s. Like some kind of Scooby Do shit.

Send an anonymous note about his rampant sinophobia to the administration. Probably wouldn’t fly in the uni near me because we have a high population of Chinese students. Not sure what the demographic is in your area, though.

Criminal, vial, repugnant behavior on behalf of the school district.

Capitalism is optional after all.

Free = Freedom not free as in it costs nothing. Look it up.

The F isn’t Free its Freedom.

We’re all ignorant until we’re not. Its more fair to say in my case that we’re reeducating each other, because I am not without my own reactionary tendencies. The key is a willingness to learn.

Yeah thats what I imagined the experience being like. It doesn’t sound like it’s much different then others dealing with falling out of their religion. This person wasn’t a random person, so I’ll take your closing sentence as an expression of frustration. We’ve both been doing a lot of learning in recent years and this is just another one of those moments. Confronting your own reactionary tendencies doesn’t happen all at once.

But thank you comrade for your perspective, its valued.

I had someone say to me recently “I have nothing against Muslim people, but I don’t like their religion. The religion says you should be put to death if you leave it.”

Not knowing a lot about the Islomic faith I left it alone. I imagine the list of religions void of violent punishment for going against its faith is short.

But logically, there must be different sects or denominations of the islomic faith that worship differently, interpret their texts differently, and are ultimately not “violent” in their expression. Aka Islam can’t simply be a monolith.

So to hold that point of view, that islam is a violent monolith, you must at least agree then that all practicing Muslims have violence at the core of their faith and by extension are more violent…

Which is void of any materialism.

This dog does not know a life under capitalism, and someday you will not either, and you too shall sleep like this dog.

I’m not a teacher specifically, but I work in education, and wouldn’t mind seeing a comm like that. It would be nice to feel like some of the people I work with might be lurking here.
