TBF, the structural differences if the protestant faith and the catholic faith were viable at the start. The catholics had a reformation and because they actually looked at the protestant doctrines and were like "yeah, ya'know, fair" to a lot of them. Meanwhile, Protestantism got popular with the the elites because they misinterpreted Martin Luther's philosophy to basically say that just paying lip service to God can still get you into heaven and so they could save a bundle on tithes and treat faith a performance art. Which is how you got assholes like the Calvinists.
In case you were thinking I was feeding into the thesis of the thread, neither of them are wholly correct, which is true of most religions, but if you look at the them purely objectively, Catholicism is "more correct" than Protestantism, as Catholics at least expect their practitioners to perform "good works" in their communities as a requirement rather than a strong suggestion.
Users. While niche communities are good, the real numbers need to come for the regulars at r/movies, /r/politics, r/news, and r/funny. If you can get an entire fandom to quit and switch to lemmy that would be an absolute death knell for Reddit.
The next President should expunge trump from all associations with the presidency. All of his appointments should be recalled and everything he's done should be rolled back. That includes the SCOTUS (especially the SCOTUS) and all thier subsequent "decisions." A line must be drawn to inform the next demigouge that their fuckery will NOT be tolerated.
Fun fact: 100 Billion is a lot of money. That is only 10% of what Elon Musk is worth. If Elon gave every American (about 350 million last I checked), $1M, that would only put a dent in his wealth to the tune of just over 1/3rd of 1% of his wealth. These Uber wealthy need to shut up about needing more money. They have so much that they could loose an amount that would be literally life-changing to most of us and would barely notice it, if an accountant didn't say anything to them.
Then why are you in here pissing on my carpet? If you are not interested in joining a server why post in a thread about what kind of servers you like/ potentially are willing to join.
Seems like a waste of time to me 😕
You are entitled to your opinions, though, so don't think I was being hostile.
we must be using different discord versions because i have the wondrous ability to tune that crap out. Also a 2 inch banner at the bottom of the window that takes up only half of one of my screens is not "in your face" monetization.
But more to the point; This might not be the server for you, specifically.

Bold move in a nation that treats firearms target practice as a sport.
Right. Because what people are just clamoring for is MORE draconian over sight on their public video platform.🙄
Say the name "Francis Ford Coppola" before reading this head line to make it less depressing.
Real talk: I heard somewhere that this is Jack Black's Mom.
If you kill a murderer before he kills more people that usually makes you a hero.
I mean there's your whole defense right there.

I feel like this need a spokesperson. Is John oliver available? No need to pay him; He'll do this shit FOR FREE.
Case in point: I absolutely LOVE The Lord of the Rings films. Absolute masterpieces that haven't aged A DAY.
Tolkien's "The Fellowship of the Ring" had me asleep in 25 pages.
-Bono, U2, "New Years Day"
Something like this?
People are Strange by the Doors "Streets are up when you're going down." I.E. "The whole world is happy when you're depressed."

I've worn a thumb hole in the 6 button plate of my razer naga pro. Those are the ones with optical sensors, so I expect it to out live me.
Using British definitions I see. 1 billion is 1,000 million, and 1 trillion is 1,000 billion. If 1% of 1,000 is 10 then 1/3 of that would be 3.3333.
3.33 x log 9 would be 3,333,333,333.333(repeating)

They want workers dependant. Ever since the end of slavery, big business has been trying to rules lawyer a back door into having it again.
