    I never understood the whole “don’t talk about bad thing!” thing. It doesn’t make the problem go away if you just ignore it. It just makes it sneak up on you.

      So we should just echo chamber it on every Lemmy thread? Do you really think there’s anyone here on the other side of this issue?

      There are any number of things you could do that might actually have a meaningful impact if that’s what’s so important to you. Gloom and dooming on a meme comments thread is not one of them. Don’t act like I’m stopping you from changing the world here, I’m just saying feeling bad for yourself on a forum full of people who already agree with you isn’t productive.

      Organize a protest or write a politician if you feel so strongly about it. No? Then let people enjoy internet memes in peace without making every single thread about these issues.
