    Sure, but we lemmings are the .000000001 of the population, we aren’t really normal vs the people going about their day to day, having 6 kids, never having heard of Linux or the fediverse or any news source that isnt owned by rupie. Probably just me, but in the ~50 or so people I interact with monthly IRL, I can’t name 1 who doesn’t fit that mold.

      I’m a middle aged mom who drives kids to swim lessons each week in my minivan, volunteers in my community, and works for a company that benefits from our capitalistic society.

      You’d be surprised who’s on Lemmy.

        I mean even the fact you volunteer makes you a teeny tiny percentage in the real world. That is great though! I need to do that myself, but I keep myself pretty busy.
