I agree with you that the community will survive, yet there are many who won't.

First they removed language mentioning trans people, now they removed the rainbow flag and soon the entire monument will be gone. "First they came" and so on and so forth.

 

The Trump administration has stopped flying a rainbow flag at the Stonewall National Monument. That's angering activists who see the change as a symbolic swipe at the country’s first national monument to LGBTQ+ history.

I know this is a hard pill to swallow for most people, but our conscious thoughts are not necessarily "ourselves", even though they often get framed as such. We are the whole, the uncountable unconscious small machinations, as well as the big thoughts.

As somebody else mentioned: Reacting first and thinking about it later was most often advantageous for our ancestors. "Flee from the lion first and think about that was necessary later."

But that does not mean that the process of arriving at the point of "Flee from the lion" isn't individual and very much "ours". It's just the fastest part of our brain taking the lead and everything else following.

Lemmy truly is the "if you want something, do it yourself" platform. 😅

Sorry I don't know if there is any such community on Lemmy.

Honestly, it is very much a "Why not both?" situation. Of course, Trump wants to distract from the Epstein files, but advancing the techno-fascist agenda is its own goal that is pursued by a lot of people in Trump's orbit that do not care much about the Epstein files.

Yeah, people have to understand that right-wing politics considers science merely a tool to accumulate wealth and power. Thus right-wingers will not acknowledge that science pursues scientific truth, but rather insist that science that contradicts them must be a challenge to their interests that aims to embolden their political opponents and thus must be expunged.

RuneQuest does a similar thing: Everyone can do magic on a basic level, but it takes skill and time to become proficient. To me this always made more sense than the "chosen one" logic inherent in other RPG systems, because most RPG classes are inherently defined by a difference in skill.
