I'm glad Lindsey Graham is dead. I'm sure Mitch McConnell will be next soon. It bugs me to no end that there is no karma and no justice for the horrors that these guys have contributed to the world. Fuck them and that all the ones coming after them.

    Honestly, to me it feels more insular than Reddit. It feels like there's no room for nuance in opinion. So for example, if I argue against something that isn't a hard left economic idea I'll get down voted pretty heavily even though it's a pretty tame comment. It does feel like if you go against the grain here, it's actually worse than that other site.

    On Reddit if I posted something against the grain there would usually be one or two people who would chime in and say "yeah. I agree with this guy." .. But on Lemmy there's no room for that.

    For me it was fish. When I grew up we didn't eat out often and when we did I never had fish. The fish my mom cooked at home was few and far between and it wasn't very good in my opinion.

    Up through college I would have said I didn't like fish, but when I started working I went out some work dinners where the company was paying for it at upscale restaurants. The first few times I ordered steak, but I got old so I decided to try the fish dish. I still remember it, 30 years later, that I had a fish with nuts on top that was just awesome. After that when I went into fancier restaurants I tried to find a fish as good as that. And the fish weren't good, but some of the fish were awesome, and I really found I liked fish if it was prepared right.

    It was religion. Religion wanted to control sex. Think of the power this gives them. When you can have sex, with who you can have sex, how you have sex... They decided they wanted to control your life through sex (and social life too).

    This is the reason why they were/are all so anti gay. Get people having sex all the time, they can't have that! Also abortion. People having sex out of wedlock and not getting "punished" with an unwanted child? Sooo scary for them. Masturbation and pornography also, same thing. They want to get all up in your business. They want to control sex and it's the power that gives them.

    Marriage is the church's way of giving you permission to have sex.

    The reality is people get laid off or fired for all sorts of reasons. This is the IT equivalent of setting fire to the equipment that you used to build something and the production prototype and walking out the door thinking you can just just leave and get away with it.

    In this guy's fantasy he would be doing 10 to 20 years of prison time if he gets caught and charged with both state and federal crimes. And let's be real, he'll definitely get caught.

    Sorry man, this isn't burning Bridges to the guy is talking about, this is ending up in jail. If you want to burn Bridges, yell and scream on your way out the door and say "fuck you everyone!". What this guy is fantasizing about doing is 10+ years in prison and both state and federal felony charges. "Burning bridges" would not really be his primary concern.
