"I keep getting downvoted because of a hive mind of people who just don't like me for no reason, nothing to do with what I said" sounds terribly republican
I opened lemmy again a few hours later to see their reply saying "its not me, its everyone else" and all i could think was... there is absolutely no point in trying to get through to someone so un self aware. They have shwon they likely cant reflect on their own action or look inwards to find fault. We all act like this from time to time but this person had plenty of time to think before they responded.
Lol these comments get increasingly emotional and deranged. This is why these are hiveminds responses.
There's a word for what the original commenter was talking about, and that's bereavement. It's also protected under US law.
So you're being incredibly gullible if you believe this person was fired for the sole reason of them being a teenager and their family member dying. That's just like cartoonishly evil and blatantly illegal, and it just reinforces a very black and white world view that this community is predisposed to. That's the whole point of why I suggested there's context missing here.
Also are you new here that you think votes determine truth?
Most crime in this country is perpetrated by companies against their labor force. The weaker the victim the easier it is to get away with.
