    Don’t do shit like “lemmy etiquette”. Just follow human etiquette and be a pleasant human and everything will be fine.

    Also stop worrying so much about “doing anything bad”. Sometimes you fuck up, sometimes you upset people, it’s no big deal. You’re good.

      I have a really intense fear of getting in trouble and making people mad, due to stuff that’s happened at school.

      I never expected a comment to be so hard to write. Have a great day, thanks.

        I was heavily bullied at school, so I understand. Have fun undoing the damage others caused you :D it’s an adventure.

      I’m a pleasant human but find myself often downvoted for what I consider an average social democratic view; taking the viewpoint that, in my country, cops are generally trustworthy, the market works when regulated by a well functioning democracy and it’s ok to be wealthy, but expect to be properly taxed.

        cops are generally trustworthy

        Oh man, you must not deal with cops a lot.

        the market works when regulated by a well functioning democracy

        I see you believe in fairytales

          Or I live in a country with better cops than you?

          In terms of delivering the highest proven outcomes for the broadest amount of people I’ve not seen evidence that anything beats a well regulated market. If new evidence is presented I shall gladly revise my opinion.

        You really need to stop saying “average” when you mean “well off, white, westerner”.

          Where I live, well off (seen in global scale), white, westerner is the average. Would you prefer me to represent an opinion that doesn’t reflect what I observe in my surroundings?

        i am sorry for being insulting but claiming the cops in the UK are generally trustworthy is delusional and just insulting to a LOT of people.
