I’m sure many members of our government frequent lemmy and will see your definitely off topic and not annoying at all comment that is achieving fuck all.
Spamming the same comment repeatedly across every thread achieves literally nothing. Lemmy is small enough that it just fills the comment section with pointless off-topic comments. At best, all they’re doing is stroking their own ego by showing how morally superior they are, just like you.
Feel free to speak out against anything you want, but do so where it matters.
You think too small. In order to reach a Tipping Point, you have to mobilize 3.5% of the population. To do that, they must be informed, and motivated.
Spreading the word, and reaching the 3.5% is more useful than disparaging people for doing it. Unless you don’t want them to reach the Tipping Point, in which case, you’re the problem.
My friend, this place has less than 100,000 users active monthly, according to this tool.
For comparison sake, the town I live in has 170,000 people. Xitter claims to have 300 million daily users, or about 3000 times more users, daily, than lemmy has active in a month. 3% of the US population is around 12 million people, which is more than 120x more people than exist on this platform.
Do you truly think every person reading this comment even knows 120 people? They use lemmy, of course they don’t.
The influence of lots of small, diverse events accumulate, and accelerate, with time. You would accomplish much more by spending your efforts with small events versus disparaging those that do.
Unless, of course, your intention is to discourage resistance.
Search engines reach far more people, and Lemmy has, from what I’ve heard, started making a presence on search results. Couple that with search results now including LLM-generated summaries of the results means that comments like OP’s have a slightly higher chance to show up in that section.
Something like “people agree that this is a rare example of good policy choice, but feel it is a distraction against demands to release the Epstein files”

Yes I’m sure my annoyance at comments on a small, niche social media platform is significantly contributing to governmental corruption.

“pedo apologist”? Really? Go touch some grass.

Wow ya really got me there, I’m a nazi sympathizer now because I think it’s ridiculous to spam the lemmy version of up vote bait.
Since you don’t have any real reason for that one, you get the tag “big dumb”. Now we can both play that game.
The statement isn’t just aimed a members of government.
Then who? You think there are any people at all among the very, very few lemmy users who could force the release of those files?

Why do you think they believe this is the only action that’s needed?
Big things potentially require lots of people doing lots of little things in lots of ways.
Go out and scream into your back yard every night and see if that changes anything. Same thing.
The story of the grasshopper and the ant.

No dude, my intent is to get people to stop spamming unrelated shit. Is your reading comprehension this poor?
I think they don’t want to discourage resistance, they’re just miserable and want to shit on whatever/whoever they can.
Uh huh

Yeah but like, they keep avoiding releasing those files in the most extravagant ways.
Very true.
