This would sound extremely xenophobic in another context. Here, though? Someone from China, living in England, poking fun at Chinglish cars? It's part of the joke!

Dunno about "we", but "I" do. I got plenty malice to watch them suffer! MWAHAHAHA [/evil villain laughter]
Serious now: if the person can't be arsed to help themself, or if their request for help sounds like a demand/whining/passive aggressiveness. A noob saying "pls help how do i shoot web tnx" is 100% fine in my book, a "waah, why isn't this community helping me? [insert easy-to-websearch question]" is not.
And this happens often?
Can't recall doing it in Lemmy. But I did all the time in a certain other platform.
I do it fairly often. Usually when:
- It's pointless to submit the content, for the others and for myself.
- There's a high chance that someone will misread it and whine.
- It would help someone whom I don't want to.
In Lemmy it's usually the first thing.
Here's what I found in the source code:
My sides went into orbit. ASCII art and a message to people reading the source? I did this with my blog in the 00s!
Yup, basically. They'll throw whatever they have near them at you; and this is just my guess but I think that they have enough of a theory of mind to think "I don't like poop smell so you don't like it either".
I also feel like the time when the other guy grabs the cage he was trying to find a way out, to get rid of the annoyers.
The chimps were not dancing, or playing. They are clearly pissed. The "dance" and noises are ways to say "this is our territory, not yours, back off". Throwing the ball is an act of aggression, but since nobody took a clue he made it even clearer with poop.
For more sociable interactions between humans and other apes check this video ("Human, you have you baby! I'm going to show you mine!").
I'm not sure but I do think that evolution played a big role here. Probably not for the reasons in the OP, but because it's a way to convert grass into portable food with decent long-term storage (cheese). This is huge for migratory populations, but still helpful for sedentary ones due to winter.
Three things would be enough IMO:
- From ghost town to exploding in popularity.
- Beans.
- No poop challenge.
I don't know what's the right thing to do. But in your shoes I'd probably cut off contact with him.
Therapy will help a bit but it'll keep eating at you. Perhaps distracting yourself when it comes to the past might help, it does for me a bit.
25 min. I just restarted it after kernel update.
It was around 3~4d or so.
Last I heard is that they are testing 0.19 on Lemmy.ml.
Yup.
No. That's a fallacy (lack of logic) called "argumentum ad populum" (appeal to the masses). Truth value of a statement does not depend on who or how many utter it; you need to analyse the statement itself to know which side there's something wrong with.
Note that claiming that "the smartest people did it, so there's something wrong with us" is a related fallacy called "argumentum ad verecundiam" (appeal to authority). And another too, called petitio principii (begging the question) - did they do it?
Based on Roman history I don't think that they did; the smart people were always a bit more cautious about this sort of superstition, but still "played along" when convenient for them. Octavian seizing Mark Anthony's will, Constantine using Christianity as a political move, the general tendency to interpret gods as abstract aspects instead of actual "big humans in the sky", so goes on.
