what the hell? so there’s no option that a person wants to have a perfume on because they like the smell and not because they want to cover the stench?

I see, myself i use semicolons sometimes too but I tend to use dashes more oftenly

I like using an en dash (–) separated by spaces instead

No, no one in history achieved their rights by “just having a peaceful talk in the marketplace of ideas”, because all governments are hierarchies that exist to benefit the top of this hierarchy, and with peaceful talks you achieve nothing but continuation of the status quo. What’s the point of letting the nobility, fascists, dictators, oligarchs, or anyone who is nothing but poison exist? They will continue oppressing others no matter how many times will you talk with them, they will only shut up if you show them you’re not going to tolerate them.

I see AI, I downvote, no exception

Lol, not just British

Oh, I see, i didn’t get it at first. If you’re not into recent trends it doesn’t make you elderly or sth, i had the same feeling even if i’m a teen, about various stuff, so whatever. Memes and trends nowadays don’t last more than a week (tho it seems that floptok is still going but it’s an exception)

I deleted my tiktok account, and I feel pretty much the same, I have no idea about recent trends or whatever, but I liked floptok and didn’t want to give it up just by deleting tiktok, there are still floptok communities on non-fediverse social media, but it would be cool if they existed on fediverse too. It’s also been quite long since it’s appearance and it still hasn’t died as a meme, i suppose.

lol what 😭

I tried to explain it in my reply to Varyk’s comment

These are various memes which eventually became sth like a subculture, mainly on tiktok. It encompasses for example Cupcakke remixes, jiafei and many other stuff. It’s also connected to expressive language, words like “slay”, “ate”, purple heart core (💜), and usage of sparkles (✨) and painted nails (💅) emojis. Flops oppose the so-called “Daboyz” which encompasses modern culture of young manosphere, fascist teens, geotubers, and gen alpha. The traits of Daboyz is the usage of incel slang like “alpha/sigma” and gen alpha slang like “skibidi ohio gyatt”, as well as characteristic emojis (💀, ☕). This, this and this video can be helpful to get it.

It’s very likely, tho honestly even if he had an iq of 300 i wouldn’t care if things he says will remain bullshit.
