    Is putting a ! infront of a markdown link not standard for an image? That’s why it’s doing it.

    Lemmy does use some different markdown formats than I have usually seen, so maybe it’s not a standard just the common thing.

    Edit: oh you meant the other way around. Anyway, weird that Reddit used that for links.









  • Because a large number of people on boards like Reddit or Twitter who call themselves centrists use “I’m not a republican” as some way to excuse bigoted views on race, LGBT issues, etc. I suppose the opposite may be true if you’re in a right-leaning place and have left-leaning views, although I wouldn’t know.

    While that might not be the view of centrists in general, that’s the perception of the “centrist” on the internet, and why people generally don’t like them.

    No, you are suggesting that their support of one group is an attack on others. Your position is that is wrong.

    You proceed to say “fuck em” about Americans who are under threat of attack. Which is a contradiction of your beliefs, at least if you take it at face value. You provide no other context and appear to be of the position that American suffering (individuals, not the regime. We can agree the regime needs to be destroyed) is of no consequence to you.

    It’s a shame that both sides of us have to just jump to attacking each other instead of the much larger target that we BOTH agree needs to be dismantled. Much more could be done. This whole “left vs liberal” thing is such a waste of time.

    That’s my point. Instead of attacking them, talk to them. Share your opinions, but don’t do it in some “I know more than you” and “I know what your beliefs are” type of way. None of us know each other outside of the little pieces of text we post here.
