Stooge. The rich laugh while you blame other poor people for your plight. When will these morons realize race and religion are just tools of the powerful to control others and distract from their crimes.

.....wait. Am I in an echo chamber? I've been saying this for years. Am I upvoting you because you're right? Or just because it's what I already agree with?

Is the fact that I'm self aware of the problem enough to notice a real echo chamber? Or am I still vunerable to not being able to tell reality from talking points?

This switch from reddit is weird. I'm used to being the one to make that point. Usually after someone says something stupid.

am I still vunerable to not being able to tell reality from talking points?

You're absolutely still vulnerable, and the fact you sometimes notice you're in an echo chamber means that when you don't spot it you're more likely to think you're not in one, even if you are. It's an interesting dilemma; if you're not aware then you risk falling into any echo chamber, but the more aware you are of a trap like this normally, the more you risk being sucked in due tp misplaced confidence when you miss the signs.

Stay alert, keep questioning why you agree with others and welcome to Lemmy!

Is there any community on lemmy.world where you can ask Lemmy/Fediverse questions?

[-] notabot@lemm.ee 5 points 5 months ago

!support@lemmy.world might be a good place for that.

[-] andyburke@fedia.io 6 points 6 months ago

There are a lot fewer bots here. 🤷‍♂️

No war but the class war.

[-] ccunning@lemmy.world 18 points 6 months ago

The culture war serves as a distraction from the class war

[-] MeDuViNoX@sh.itjust.works 10 points 5 months ago

When will these morons realize

Never, that's why they're morons.

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago

Don't denigrate Shemp by associating him with this guy.

[-] JohnnyCanuck@lemmy.ca 81 points 6 months ago

Luckily, each one of his alleged shots missed and no one was killed or seriously injured as a result of the tirade.

They buried the lede that he's a stormtrooper.

[-] Lucidlethargy@sh.itjust.works 21 points 6 months ago

That checks out with the racism taken into account.

[-] tiefling@lemmy.blahaj.zone 21 points 5 months ago

Somehow both meanings in one

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 13 points 5 months ago

Ladies and gentlemen, the master race.

A white man was arrested after live streaming his trip to a local Indianapolis grocery store

Richard K. Klaff Jr., 20, walked into the Georgetown Square Kroger in Fort Wayne, Ind

Fort Wayne is 1.5 hours away from Indianapolis.

[-] ChihuahuaOfDoom@lemmy.world 28 points 6 months ago

Fortunate that this piece of shit never bothered to learn how to shoot.

[-] tiredofsametab@kbin.run 18 points 6 months ago

What a piece of shit. Unrelated, why did the writer choose this:

[. . .] walked into the Georgetown Square Kroger in Fort Wayne, Ind. when he snuck into the bathroom [. . .]

Does one have to sneak into a public restroom in a store? Did the shithead sneak into an employee-only area? It's just such weird phrasing for me.

[-] GiantRobotTRex 26 points 6 months ago

It's a really poorly written article. The FOX 55 article they link is definitely better written.

This article starts by saying it's a "local Indianapolis grocery store" and then says it's in Fort Wayne. If a Fort Wayne grocery store counts as Indianapolis then every grocery store in the entire state must count as an Indianapolis grocery store.

AI isn't very good with maps yet.

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago

Damn Unigov.

[-] Crackhappy@lemmy.world 5 points 6 months ago

Click. Bait.

[-] Varyk@sh.itjust.works 16 points 6 months ago

I don't need to know anything else.

Hello cage. Goodbye key.

[-] Red_October@lemmy.world 12 points 5 months ago

How long before Fox "News" denies that there were any racial motivation?

[-] Duamerthrax@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago

They'll just say he was Hispanic and that inner cities are the problem.

[-] cannibalkush@lemmy.world 11 points 5 months ago

Dumbass missed every shot lol go to jail

[-] IndustryStandard@lemmy.world 7 points 5 months ago

Klaff told detectives he didn’t want to wait until he joined the military to kill someone

🥸

[-] xc2215x@lemmy.world 3 points 5 months ago

Why livestream yourself saying it even if you are racist ?
