I'm not complaining about downvotes in general. I dislike people who downvote people who mention downvoting (like the two I call out in the above comment) and people who downvote every comment in a thread just because their own comment was downvoted (like bigtyme who i've noticed a bunch of times downvoting entire threads just because someone downvoted him).

Neither of those things are conducive to a social web with a small population.

    Stop downvoting everyone in the thread just because you got downvoted. Votes are public and your behavior is childish. This isn’t the first time i’ve noticed you doing this.

    Edit: Herr_S_aus_H@lemmy.zip & remon@ani.social also think it’s funny to downvote people calling out anti social behavior. I seriously don’t understand some people’s logic downvoting for no reason on a site where votes are public.

    Not to mention a black woman as communications officer on the bridge.

    Uhura doesn't show up until The Corbomite Maneuver in this shot:

    So obviously it became woke in the 3rd episode of The Original Series. /s

    Makes sense. Both the Harkonnens and the Atreides were anti ai.

    Like other commenters are saying: it’ll be sweet if anti ai sentiment unites people but the entirety of human history suggests people will cooperate until the threat is over and then they’ll break upon lines of who wipes standing or sitting or some other dumb shit.

    I liked all of them (mainly because i like most movies and tv shows, i'm a simple man) but I also respect other people opinions.

    I just don't understand a significant minority of people's opinion that they should yuck someone else's yum. How hard is it for people to just be nice? Kindness is free after all.

    Damnatio memoriae is a modern Latin phrase meaning "condemnation of memory" or "damnation of memory", indicating that a person is to be excluded from official accounts, or remembered after death in a way contrary to what that person may have desired. There are and have been many routes to damnatio memoriae including the destruction of depictions, the removal of names from inscriptions and documents, and even large-scale rewritings of history.
