How is it controversial when the thread is sitting at 89%? Isn’t that more positive than controversial?

Most controversial DT in c/Melbourne history? Lol
I don’t care too much, but let’s get back to our usual more upbeat antics. I’ll start by sharing magpie:
It was staring at us while we were barbecuing on Sunday. Everybody was sure it was going to try and swoop some bread or a snag, but it just sat there, staring, for an uncomfortably long time. Felt a little bad ngl, but if I feel wildlife, I’d rather feed them something more nutritious than home brand white bread

I was referring to the contents. Too much America. Fair few down votes around.

for many of us our personal and family lives are entwined with America
we have loved ones and friends there, I myself lived there for about 6 years

No need to jump on the defensive again, seagoon. I was answering a question, not attacking your beliefs

Too much America? Like the post you contributed to the topic, or just other people’s posts about it?

I think some people downvote the DT regularly because it appears in their general Lemmy feed and is pretty distinctly different to most of the other stuff in the network

Ah yep, that makes sense I suppose. Kinda weird though, it’s not like Lemmy has an algorithm it can use to learn what posts you don’t like. Probably easier to just block the community

I love it when they stare intently. I always wonder what they’re thinking about.
