Not sure what you mean to be honest. What do you mean by “yet you called their consideration”?

What I meant earlier was that the way that you express

redditors (like most americans) proved that they believe a genocide is acceptable political collateral damage and that facism is okay; that’s fucked and not at all balanced in any way.

is (in this case left?) misrepresentation what others (or most other) believe. I don’t know if this is in bad faith or if its because of “echo chamber radicalization”. I do have a hard time believing that “most americans” or “redditors” (as in most redditors?) approve of genocide or facism. They might have other/more nuanced ideas on some issues than you. But for the record I’m not American.

I do believe that you will be able to provide examples of crazy comments on some issues. But in my experience, when you leave the internet and talk to people in real life - most people are sane, moderate and do not hold far left/right opinions on most of the issues discussed like this on the internet.

I never alluded to these being ok? I agree with you here

I’m not talking about whether the content of an opinion is balanced or not. I’m talking about that if you take into consideration all the different views; are there just a few vs many, are the views leaning heavily in a specific direction (right/left), etc.

And you continue to prove the point that Lemmy has a “far left” overweight. I’ll remind you again that I’m not talking about whether I think you are right or wrong, just that it’s an echo chamber for opinions like this.

I think you provide the perfect example of what OP is talking about.

In my experience this kind of comments and “far left” views are the norm on Lemmy. I think that in this regard Reddit had (I have not been there since the API shutdown) a much more balanced and wide spectra of political views. Not to mention that everything wasn’t political there. Here I feel like everything takes a “far left”/Marxist turn.

To me, this homogenous political environment turns me off and is one of the primary factors behind me not really using Lemmy that much.

To be clear I do not think that your views should be silenced and whatnot. Just agreeing that this is indeed a “far left” echo chamber.

Yeah. But you got the gist of it. He’s probably not going to get “sex” recognized as a sport anytime soon. Also, I wouldn’t be surprised is this sex contest of his is going to get shut down before its held - depending on how he has organized it.

I have heard it on multiple occasions in Swedish podcasts. Apart from the the other response you got with a source from the Swedish Sports Confederation, I found you some news articles on it. They are in Swedish, since it’s the source.

Here’s his first inquiry to get it classified as a sport: https://sverigesradio.se/artikel/strippkungen-vill-att-sex-klassas-som-sport-riksidrottsforbundet-rasar And here’s on the sex event he wants to hold:

He’s known for these kinds of things in Sweden. He has gotten in a fight with McDonald’s over logo infringement with his strip club sign:

What do you mean?

Drayan Bratych has applied to the Swedish Sports Confederation for his organization to be officially recognized. They have not done so yet and said that they don’t intend to prioritize it or something along those lines.

So it’s not official I’m any way, but what’s described is what Drayan intends to have the “sport” be.

Imagine that. Just going on YouTube, searching for a game, pick up your controller and just play. Like no installation and no loading times. That sounds like the future! But yeah, I guess there are some issues that needs to be ironed out before we’re there.

Has there been a new beta publish since the original dev left?

Maybe it’s because I spent most time there, but I think that Kyovashad is the nicest hub. It’s the only town where I don’t have to check the map find anything.

This entire thing is nightmare fuel. Hope they find them in time and unharmed.

I have gotten no cosmetics as drops yet. Got that Ashava horn from the second beta though!

Semi off-topic: I’m still a bit confused about the loot goblin. I have still seen less than 10 of them after a slow (doing many side quests etc) playthrough of the campaign. And of the ones I have killed or almost killed, I think the loot is really lackluster for being such a rare and special encounter. I have gotten only 1-3 rares per goblin. And compared to what the legendary drop rate is throughout the game, the loot goblins seem to fill no function apart for being rare themselves.
