    Both things can be true bro. Yes, it’s unfettered capitalism in the macro. In the micro, when it comes to how American cities have disintegrated, suburbanization and the automobile are two clear culprits.

    No offense, but this is a really obnoxious and unhelpful reply to a post about how suburban sprawl and car-centric infrastructure have really ruined life in the American City. Js.














  • I love Democrats. They think these positions will “win” them voters on the right, who will never vote Democrat. Meanwhile, this gives yet another reason for Leftists like me to say I’m permanently done with this party.

    Democrats should be focused on rampant income inequality, skyrocketing housing costs, growing student loan interest rates, rising cost of gas, scathing Medicaid cuts, attacks on immigrant rights and reproductive rights. Instead, they think taking up conservative populist talking points is the way to go. Have fun losing yet another winnable election, motherfuckers.

    Also, as a member of the LGBTQ community, FUCK buttigieg. Our community stands together. He is a traitor who only cares about his own image.

    Wouldn’t a tankie instance have more women?

    Your response seems almost defensive, which is weird. Lemmy is definitely overwhelming male. That’s not an inherently bad thing, so I don’t get the defensive tone here or taking OP to task about data methods.

    Disagree all you want, but this website is incredibly male dominated. I don’t think OP needs to do a peer-reviewed, double-blind study to say so.

    People are downvoting cuz OP said this site is becoming misogynistic plus OP didn’t include the right “sample size.”

    But can we be fucking honest? This website is incredibly male dominated. Like why are we arguing this? I woulda figured it was closer to like 95% male users…

    And many folks (read: men) on this website don’t like calling out the reality that these heavily male-skewed outlooks can be misogynistic. Like, yeah, you bring tons of men in a room with no women, people will start to say misogynistic shit. It’s not reddit-level bad, but I’ve definitely noticed it.
