A lot of conspiracy theories reference Hermeticism blindly. One example is Flat Earthism, they use a lot of Hermetic concepts of the firmament to describe why the world is flat. Hermeticism is fundamentally the progenitor of modern astrology, alchemy, ‘witchcraft’ and so on.
Like the other commenter said, hermeticism relies on the belief there is an “unknown” reality that can be unveiled. This was a core tenet of ancient Greek religion and explains their tendency to practice divination, in a way a lot of modern woo-woo stuff is directly lifted off of a bastardization of ancient Greek religion. Its very interesting to do a meta study of conspiracies, people are tapping into shit they have no clue about and are rethinking thoughts and ideas made 3000 years ago by a drugged out woman in a cave filled with lead. Hermeticism was also a very popular system of gnostic beliefs during the medieval era, quite a lot of Arab philosophers for example believed in a variety of gnostic religions, e.g. Sabianism which is referenced in the Quran as being ‘people of the book’, a group of people along with Christians and Jews that should not be harmed but taxed.
As Marx said, “The tradition of all dead generations weighs like a nightmare on the brains of the living.”
Hermeticism is the origin of most conspiracy theories if you dig deep enough. Truly the OG brainworm
My story is kind of boring, I apparently become very charismatic when crossfaded. I just had an amicable mutual breakup I was very sad about and somehow I convinced every girl in this pretty big college party to cuddle me and let me half-sleep on their thighs (these are people I barely know). So like imagine a long couch and me half-sleeping on 6 girls’ laps. Everyone knows I’m a lesbo and I was in heaven there for a bit cause there was a lot of skin on skin contact
This is a bit embarrassing to me but obviously is very tame.
So high you become a cat
For gaming I’ve had zero issues on bazzite, comes ready out of the box.
Its worth it to check https://www.protondb.com/ to see if the game you like works.
Personally for coding, I think Fedora Atomic is pretty up there because they make it easy to containerize everything. Universal blue has an atomic spin called Bluefin specifically designed for devs https://projectbluefin.io/
I have a cerakey custom board that reduces plastic components that I’m genuinely in love with. i love how cold the ceramic keycaps are
im really interested in seeing if optical switches would work with the keycaps
They’re the same people you would have seen hanging out in /r/The_Donald or 4Chan ten years ago, who only leave their cave to stir up crap, spread disinformation, and brigade others, only now they’re cosplaying as leftists on a new platform.
Is this AI generated? Hexbear was around before the Lemmy fediverse even existed. They were on a forked version of Lemmy without acitivitypub for the longest time. If their sole desire was to brigade, isolating themselves doesn’t seem the way to go. Also, they were the first large Lemmy community so who is really brigading, the new people from Reddit or them?
We also know where they were close to 10 years ago it was /r/chapotraphouse lmao
Also, about half their community is trans. Do you really think so many trans people are Trump fans?
I want to be a billionaire with a large dick.
Elon, is that you?
I know for a fact that they’ve housed many trans people. They also had a shipment of grain with with their logo on it in Gaza. Pretty dope.
No
Colleges in fact often conspire to try to delay your graduation to fleece you. Don’t take it as a personal failing
Moving to a walkable city. Turns out I just hate cars and I hated the fact that I had to drive to have any sort of social gathering.
I serve the Soviet Union.

I get domed by some credit company for trying to leave their no name service
Maybe soon Chinese ai will do worldwide revolution
This is a high level of cope. Those imports are worth almost half of Canadas GDP.
less bootlicker trans community here than on reddit
bazzite is the way to go imo. it feels light years ahead of all the other gaming focused distros, ive tried all of them. it does take getting used to, but once you figure it out, its rock solid. nothing breaks. its almost boring in a way, lol. everything just works and i basically never have to fix or research anything. ublue has an insane amount of contributors on bazzite in comparison to other gaming distros as well, ive submitted many issues to them and patches are applied quickly. for example: garuda has around 9 contributors, cachyos has around 7, nobara has maybe 10, popos has 39 (some are full time employees). what does bazzite have? 113 or so. but they’re also not a typical distro, theyre an image of fedora kinoite/silverblue. a lot of the effort is shunted onto the supermassive org (24k+ contributors) that fedora/rhel is and many of their patches are upstreamed. the update process is very seamless and smooth due to this method of organization.
just remember to install most things through flatpak, distrobox, and brew. and you’re set. i love atomic for cluing me into distrobox, distrobox is straight up the laziest way to use linux and i love it. if you need some niche program that some dev only released .deb files for or only fedora/opensuse/aur commandline instructions, its got you. it just works. its somewhat similar to WINE and lets you run any linux distro installer and program as natively as possible.
also look at this fun graph for fedora atomic spins. as an fyi the fedora project as a whole has around 300k active users
