One reason you're noticing a homogeneity of opinions on here is the fact that Lemmy isn't botted like larger social networks. Larger networks have bots farms pushing all sorts of narratives for various reasons, and the one thing they accel at is finding people to argue with.

You are also certainly in a bubble on Lemmy. You have to know it exists and care enough to use it over other platforms. Most people choose the path of least resistance.

Yep. This is just the first. As long as individuals submit to these ID verifications, services which provide them will be highly targeted. I find it ridiculous that 1.5 million people actually submitted their info to access discord instead of finding a workaround or alternative. I can only imagine how many are gullible enough to verify on porn sites.

No internet usage for kids, and mandatory bible study. They want to control all information going into a kids head, and they want that information to be slave-coded.

I agree. Rockstar makes truly impressive games, but I can't get into them. The characters and stories have no redeeming qualities from what I could tell.

No job, no problem. We'll just need to learn how to live like children again; make and meet up with friends to play sports, hang out, etc. We need other people to provide meaning in our lives, so it will happen.

It really is quite vile, isn't it?
