Unsolicited advice, but you have to escape your -
to make it not create a bulleted list.
Lemmy uses markdown for its formatting, and this means -
is has special meaning, it is syntax used to create bulleted lists with.
For example,
- Isaac Asimov
will look like:
- Isaac Asimov
If you want it to look like
- Isaac Asimov
you have to escape the -
character with a \
:
\- Isaac Asimov
The \
basically says “ignore the special syntax meaning of -
as starting a bulleted list, and instead treat it as a literal -
”.

Excellent point about the ignorance. I would also add ingratitude. People look to whiners like the Donvict and think that complaining about first world problems is a legit reason to destroy founding principles like integrity, justice, and separation of powers. Americans have it good overall and they spoil themselves with greed. Thanksgiving to them is about football and cryptocurrency commercials and not enough about actually giving thanks, giving back, selflessness, service, kindness, empathy, and goodwill. Add a drop of ignorance and social media brainwashing and you get a nation with too many zombie mooks wearing red hats that turn out to vote. Easily conned, they ignorantly vote against their own interests. Bernie Sanders and AOC have been showing that there’s a better way to solve problems and to work for every American. But it takes gratitude, selflessness, and work, not lazy golfing and whining.
