Unfortunately, I don’t know a single person who uses Friendica, and that is also, unfortunately, self-defeating because there’s no way I could convince them to go without more than just me using it.

Not going to try to convince me to do a murder/suicide huh? You’ve given up on that particular troll angle and gone back to the classics I see, Attack Helicopter.

Nope, I know I’m not on the side of someone who trolls the queer community.

Also, the only thing I would like to help you with is how to find a different Fediverse server so you don’t have to torture yourself be being around all of us horrible conservative bigots who are just so mean to you. Would you like help with that, Attack Helicopter?

Looking forward to you creating yet another sockpuppet account to start calling me a cocksucker like you did to another user not too long ago. Also looking forward to you again telling suicidal people to commit murder.

You saying something stupid in order to get a witty retort has nothing to do with fairness, and I am no more obligated to answer your questions than you are obligated to stay on Lemmy.world just because you like the technology. Because, again, there are plenty of servers.

But you’ve loved trolling, especially the queer community here, since you were doing the Attack Helicopter thing, so why would you leave?

Cool, you didn’t actually read what I wrote in an effort to make a very poor attempt at a witty retort.

If I were surrounded by a bunch of people I thought were horrible, I would leave. I hear there are other Fediverse servers out there.

I know you have a lot of sockpuppets, but you’re just one person.

If I were surrounded by a bunch of people I thought were horrible, I would leave. I hear there are other Fediverse servers out there.

If you’re into masochism, you should really get people’s consent first.

No one is forcing you to be around all of us “conservatives” who suck.

That does indeed often seem to be the case, sadly.

I wish I had friends.

It was a joke, people comment (and sometimes complain) about how much I post on the regular.

All I want to ask of you is to just comment a few more times, press send on that post that you felt wasn’t of enough substance to be worth anyone’s time.

God damn! I’m trying my hardest here!

I worked at a local TV station and we occasionally did coverage at the local airport that had a lot of small planes and no commercial flights. Like you said, we’re not talking about one percenters here. We’re talking plumbers that are way into flying. Not even necessarily someone who makes decent money like a plumber. It could be, just like a person in a menial job who spends all their money fixing up a muscle car, a similar situation.

People who fly small planes, as far as I can tell, do it because they’re super into flying planes. It really has nothing to do with their economic status beyond “has enough money to buy a small plane.” If you get an ultralight that you can just tow to the airport and don’t need a hangar for it, you’re talking maybe a $20,000 investment. I’ve seen ultralights for sale for a lot less.

It’s as stupid an argument as saying we should destroy all the street lighting because of people who have migraines at night. Yeah, it really sucks having to deal with that. What sucks a lot more is unsafe streets because of the total lack of lighting.

When I lived in L.A., our apartment was on the flightpath of Burbank airport in one direction and my office/studio was in the flightpath on the other direction. It didn’t kill me. It didn’t even hurt me. After a few days, it just became part of life. All it did was make us have to re-take anything that was recorded if a plane flew over.

And this “it hurts autistic people” thing is silly. As if there aren’t a huge number of places you can live in cities that aren’t on the airport flightpath.

Later, I lived in South Gate, CA, which is another part of L.A. we were on the flight path of the Zeppelin NT, which was just about as loud as the jets, except it flew over really slowly and pretty low (you have never seen anything that big in the sky if you haven’t seen it). I’m guessing Drag here would rant and rave about that too.

And then there were the police helicopters and the traffic helicopters that flew overhead wherever you were in the city. Fuck the police helicopters, but the traffic helicopters are pretty damn necessary until we eliminate the car problem.

Anyway, if you live somewhere with an airport where rich people keep flying in and out, you live in a place that’s already pretty damn noisy without any aircraft being involved. We call them cities. If you can’t take excessive noise, you shouldn’t live in one.

That’s exactly it.

Not my job to not respond to a comment on a public forum just because the person doesn’t like me. Especially not such an abhorrent one. That’s not how this works.

You know, you are very concerned about people respecting you to the point that you throw massive hissy fits about it, and yet you seem to show no concern whatsoever for the lives of innocent people if it furthers some political goal of yours. Which seems extremely disrespectful to humanity overall.

I doubt you’ll see the irony there, but I think everyone else will appreciate it.

Those residential areas with houses full of people that planes can crash into and kill everyone on the ground as well as in the air?

That’ll sure show the billionaires… somehow…

I see things haven’t changed much since the island…

And then you have all the people who tell you you’re using the wrong flavor of linux and if you knew anything you would have used the version they’re using. BITCH YOU’VE BEEN TELLING ME THAT I WAS USING THE WRONG OS FOR YEARS AND NOW I SWITCH AND I’M STILL DOING IT WRONG?!
