They exchanged messages just before the subreddit r/WhitePeopleofTwitter was given a temporary ban for 72 hours
I got banned from reddit for saying that netenyahu should be put on trial and hanged for war crimes.
After their censorship of me for saying a reasonable thing (a war criminal made to face justice) I will say I have altered my opinion. He should be tied up, simply read his charges and then unceremoniously shot in the head.
Seems too easy on him. I like the hanging. Or the drugs that work so badly.
I was banned for saying traitors to our nation should be publicly executed. Which is our actual law. So that’s confusing
You can’t just cite established law without thinking about what Musk/Trump think. What do you think this is, a democracy?
I said justice would’ve seen Trump tried on January 7th and hung on January 8th. That got me a soft ban. Then I said kill all Nazis but six and save them for pallbearers. That got me a permaban. Tearing the bandaid off on 12 years of comments and posts hurt but so far I like the attitude of Lemmy a lot better. It feels like real conversation instead of just shitposting and trolling.
Fun Fact: you should be wiping all comments and posts on every socmed platform at LEAST once a month.
Which reminds me that I am overdue on THIS one.
Why? So the Nazis don’t find us? I feel like the only possible conclusion to this is a civil war because most of us don’t want to live in moronville
Trump committed treason on jan 6th, 2021. That is enough reason to hang him, and yet he still breathes.
I am jumping back and forth as well for now…. My first posts here! Thanks to whomever got this going !
Welcome. Your username is a joy to pronounce in my head
Yeah I’m originally from Littleton Massachusetts just outside Boston. I’m wickedcool On Bluesky😂
They’re still pressuring and mass banning
It’s why I came here…
Oh, please… the mods are all little bitches. Like they care
i read president musk again 😬
One of the most recurring things I see here is the mods are at wits end with Reddit Admins again. They’ve given up a lot of leverage in doing another blackout, but they really need to ask themselves what they have to gain being unpaid volunteers for a website clearly working against its users.
I hope he does something stupid like buy Reddit.
i feel like musk is going to demand reddit get rid of old reddit next because it’s too nice a layout
That’s what every company/organization I’ve ever worked for has done. Oh, this intranet tool works okay and no one is complaining. Lets redo it in a “modern” style… (adds whitespace and truncates every meaningful text field so you have to mouseover and scroll for miles to read any of them even on a 4k display).
I think part of why Reddit succeeded initially was because it had some very KEY strengths/advantages. I would say that the old design and the URL scheme are part of that. It fit any screen nicely from phone though 4k TV, portrait displays, whatever. It was a simple design, but extensible by custom CSS and if you knew what you wanted, you could skip straight there by typing r/ or u/ in your URL. Enough reminiscing, if old reddit is gone,I don’t know if I’ll even be able to use reddit at all for anything. New reddit is one of those interfaces, like twitter, that never really made sense or worked for me. I’m just a Lemmy guy I guess.
Is this the “free speech” everyone in 'Murica is talking 'bout?
Honestly, say something useful or keep it to yourself, OK? These lil ‘gotcha’ comments do nothing but take up space and make you feel a misplaced sense of having done something (when you’ve in fact, done nothing).
Stuff like this comment, the mango Mussolini comments, the evil Cheeto comments, it all just fucking does nothing while still making people feel like they’re being transgressive. You’re not. It diverts energy from doing/talking about stuff that affects real change.
Musk bought twitter because he wanted free speech…
Ironic huh
Nah, he wanted to modify what was being said. He blocked and oppressed views he didn’t like. It was never free speech. It was always oppression.
I don’t even think he new the possibilities of what he can do with Twitter before he bought it. He bought it and after that he needed something to do with this shit pile and found the solution in manipulation and illegal election donation
I think he had to enter into agreements about content in order to get financing from the Saudis and Russians.
Musk bought Twitter because he fucked around trying to manipulate the stock price and accidentally made an agreement he couldn’t back out of. He tried. He failed. He was forced to buy it according to the terms he previously specified.
I hate my conspiricy theory minded family but if someone told me they had proof Musk expressly bought Twitter to get right wing power in America and used the buyer’s remorse stock price manipulation attempt gone south as a cover story?
I’d believe it.
- He’s dumber than you give him credit for
- What is the point of the supposed cover story? To cover from who, about what? He’s literally paying people to vote, again. Next to that, buying a social media to influence it almost sounds democratic.
The reason that conspiracy theory is appealing is the same for all conspiracy theories; it’s more comforting to think the powerful have a clever masterful evil plan than the sad reality that we’re all making it up as we go, even the literal Nazis.
Well, wanted to own a mechanism of free speech so he could control it.
Not ironic when you realize it’s this but literally. He wants to own all speech.
He did. Free speech for bigots that is.
So the Twitter boss gets to order around the Reddit boss? Typical Stevie… No spine
So more traffic for Lemmy, Mbin & PieFed
I don’t feel bad that I got banned by the guy behind the cybertruck. Ahahahaha.
Why is anyone on Reddit??
I’m not anymore because of this.
Exactly. Just delete your account!
I’m here now cuz of this article :shrug:
Takes time to quit an abusive relationship.
Inertia
Kinda pisses me off that this joke of a clown has this much a authority.
Don’t let it piss you off. Just don’t participate. Leave Reddit. Leave FB. Delete, delete, delete.
Now we just need to make more Lemmy posts that aren’t about them.
Would you settle for a meme about a character from Star Trek installing Linux on something?
I kid. We’re growing. But I agree, we could spend less energy on then.
It still impacts a lot of people because we here are in the minority and we can’t save them all. So it’s absolutely valid to have this piss you off.
duckduckgo: shows tracking attempt. Zero attempts on lemmy
