Just going to leave this here
This is the argument I get in with people in my life. Even my significant other is starting to fall into this trap that “they can’t hold up cabinet selection” due to some misguided notion that holding your nose and being respectful is necessary. I blame coworkers and not wanting to think about something that stresses them out. It is maddening.
Thank you for linking the paper.
Donald Trump and Elon Musk should be assassinated ☺️ 😍 😋 🤪 😇
Wow, just being able to say that when inciting violence is banned on most other social media felt empowering. I know to y’all this probably comes off as just another basic one-liner comment, but… I’ve only recently started using Lemmy when I used to just browse Reddit without an account. There were times when I almost felt crazy, because I felt so much rage against these rapist scum I thought- given the opportunity- I would end their lives in an instant, consequences be damned. But on Reddit where any talk of violence (against the state) is banned (but violence via political persecution of minorities is A-OK!), I thought I was just a radical extremist.
And maybe I am a radical extremist, Lemmy as a whole is certainly small enough to be an echo chamber, but in a time where peaceful protest does nothing but paint a target on your back, free speech by necessity needs to include ushering people to make use of “the 4th box of liberty,” the cartridge box. By god does it feel good to finally be able to say that.
I saw shit like THIS all over my town:
They go low, we go low.
Don’t go low, go center mass.
When they go low, start stomping the fuckers
They wanna be the bar set in hell let’s ensure they go there faster than usual. My grandfather helped them, I’d be happy to continue the family linage of “making them find out after fucking around.”
You can even say things like “someone should put a heavy duty zip tie round JD vance’s neck and then leave him to choke in a rest stop toilet”. Or “someone should put powdered death cap mushrooms in Donald Trumps food”.
Me getting banned from asklemmy there for just saying Luigi
It didn’t take me long to realize blocking that instance was a good idea. I didn’t know about lemmygrad and hexbear (which federated) until someone from lemmy.world pointed out another user was “brigading”, and looking up how lemmy.world eventually blocked that instance the feeling I have towards lemmy.world is that they act like the “world police” of the lemmy-verse.
you shouldnt judge someone based on the instance they choose to moderate on thats just as bad as judging someone for their sexual orientation and if you want to see change you should become a lemmy world mod and be the change you want to see
thats just as bad as judging someone for their sexual orientation
As a queer person and a mod on lemmy.world, no it absolutely is not. Not even close. Not even in the same ballpark. An identity is 100% not the same as willingly choosing actions. You can disagree with the broad statement but equating it to bigotry is wildly out of touch.
Please don’t use this analogy again.
The reality is that complacency is complicity. I would agree that LW mods don’t make up the instance rules, but if they are actively enforcing the rules instead of turning a blind eye then that is something that can be judged.
And this absolutely is not comparable to someone’s sexual orientation lmfao. Judging based on someone’s sexual orientation is bad. Judging someone based on the rules they enforce is 100% fair.
Inb4 of any bs that I’m advocating anything. I’m not. I’m speaking generally and I’m saying if you enforce a rule you inherently support that rule and those it defends in that context
by that logic youre saying its okay to judge police officers for their profession so you might want to rethink that and edit your comment
It’s absolutely okay to judge police for their profession, wtf are you on about? They chose the job they can quit whenever they want. They weren’t born cops.
Reread what i wrote. I don’t judge police officers for their profession
I judge people for their actions… the rules they choose to enforce.
If someone enforces bad rules, then yes, i will judge that and i won’t rethink that.
so youre saying all cops are bad
No. I’m not. And I’m walking away from this conversation now because you are not engaging in good faith.
*yours truly, a LW mod
reported for advocating violence
What did you hope to accomplish by reporting a mod?
Wow, Carlin was right when he talked about you people.
It’s a big club and us non-mods aren’t in it
(Pretty sure he was talking about internet moderators, who keep silencing me just for speaking truth to power)
a fleeting sense of superiority
Fair enough.
Lmao, go for it!
Edit: let me know if it gets removed from LW :p
Oooh! Oooh! Get him for report abuse now!
No one was born as a LW mod.
the two have in common the fact that a part of their identity regardless of choice is being attacked for no other reason than that
demonizing people is demonizing peopleare you going to demonize or mock someone who has chosen to be a cleaner or a fast food worker are you going to demonize or mock someone who believes in god and is living peacefully with their neighbours
Valid criticism is not demonization.
Also, please don’t compare innate qualities with literal choices.
PS: Punctuation can be your friend
Actual criticism of people? Just as bad as being racist and bigoted!
Trump saying stupid shit? It’s his right!
Liberals.jpg
it is odd how prophetic the first matrix movie was despite being a part of the machinery itself btw its worth reading simulacra and simulation as the first movie is a decent film representation of the premises in the book warning its a heavy read philosophically free your mind
Ah, I wasn’t aware that I shouldn’t demonize the imps crawling out of the pit of hell in front of me. It’s only fair, they’re only advocating for Satan - they aren’t actually Satan himself.
You fucking donkey.
then if you find the lemmy world bad why not become one despite your distaste for the posotion someone needs to do the work better a conscientious individual such as yourself
alternatively create a better system of community moderation on a local level and lead by example it would be better for the fediverse as a whole for people to stop being so complacent and change things in their local community
Silence, troglodyte
wow whatever you tried to say you spelled it so wrong that i cant even guess what word thats supposed to be
Sorry that you can’t read buddy, here’s the definition:
A troglodyte is a person who lives in a cave, or someone who is reclusive or has old-fashioned views.
Imagine being so fucking stupid 🤣🤣
Edit:
Your comment but better - ‘I can’t even recognize the word you tried to spell.’
You should get some punctuation in there, man. Maybe a period, or a comma, or an exclamation point could help break up that endless flow of words.
no thanks i wont be using your elitist nonsense those little dots are made up and useless and a clear marker of government control because you know who used that stuff thats right hillary clinton and also adolf hitler both badguys
They’re used to convey information and make text more readable, but sure, okay.
(addemdum: and now I saw their username. I think I just ate the onion.)

This just in: LW mods win oppression Olympic gold over sexual minorities.
What a ridiculous comparison.
Same people who said criticizing political officials for their actions actually makes you a secret Trump supporter.
2/10
Made me reply
tyfewmc
Thank you for engaging with my comment?
Once you see what that user is doing, it’s absolutely hysterical. It’s one of the few times I’ll see comment threads and upvote everyone in them.
Lemmy.world isn’t even based in the US 💀
I actually like the idea of giving both Donald Duck and Elon Musty a bunch of laxatives and having them fight over one small bathroom.
I unsubbed from everything over there except for Working Class Calendar and Work Reform. Normies that are still normies in 2025 making me irrationally angry.
Yup. We’re in an extra normal time and people are still clutching to decorum and civility as if it matters anymore.
Could be worse. Try saying anything critical about Putin to the admins of .ml. Instant ban from like, 20 different communities.
And for that matter, just politely disagree with the hive and see how fast you get Rule 1’d.
Not in anyone’s defense, but I’m pretty certain I read that .world is hosted in the Netherlands and are subject to the laws there. Suggesting harm on others is against the laws there or something.
.ml has no excuse for their authoritarian bullshit.
Yeah that’s bullshit. I have said plenty of anti Putin stuff in my instance. Same for being critical of China. I just don’t spew propaganda without context when I do.
Cool. Check the modlogs bud. Also, I said to the admins, not just in some random shithole edgelord community. One of them even refuses to answer when asked if they support Putin.
Also, I went back 8 months of your comments. Not a single opinion that goes against the hive was posted in .ml. You brought your shit to world and posted it there where it’s allowed.
Imagine that.
Here are the modlogs. You’ve never been banned on lemmy.ml:
Did I say I was?
I just checked them: you’re not banned from .ml, but you are banned from several . world coms for being too right wing even for them.
ROFL!
I’m banned from a troll community I never even posted in, WAS briefly temp banned for arguing with some tankie kid, and “shitprop?” I’ve no fucking clue what that even is.
Nice little gotcha attempt though. It was cute. But… I’d advise you to put out the fires in your own house before lighting matches in the yards of others, because you really Shouldn’t be taking. Your modlog reads like a cautionary tale on how not to conduct yourself amongst adults.
You probably shouldn’t have told people to check your modlog if you were going to lie about your modlog.
I’m not sure why you’re trying to deflect to mine: you were the one complaining about being banned from .ml when you aren’t.
The reason I haven’t been banned from .ml is because I don’t create content for shithole communities with authoritarian admins.
And here’s my modlog.
I’ve nothing to hide, bud. It’s all there. Want to compare? Or are you willing to admit your little distraction didn’t work.
My point is, if someone wants to talk shit about one instance, let’s balance the playing field and call into question another to compare, because it’s commonly known and widely accepted that .ml is run by authoritarian admins that constantly overstep the mod teams there.
They remove shit that provenly doesn’t break the rules- daily. This is not up for debate. Modlogs are public.
You tried to make this personal so you can report the conversion and get it removed. I know the game. I’m not playing it. I said what I felt needed to be said. And I’m done.
Enjoy the last word. Its clearly very important it is to you.
EDIT: it’s very peculiar how my comments all mysteriously get 4 downvotes almost immediately after I post. I wonder why that is…
Man, I am not reading all of that.
deleted by creator
.ml’s defense is they are trash beings like .dbzer
.dbzer0 is pretty cool for the most part. I have no Issues with them. .ml however, can burn in a dumpster fire for all I care.
are there any examples of this?
Oh my God that was the same person!? Who had all that drama and who can’t write to save their life?
Jaysus!
And they feel zero remorse!? I’m genuinely shocked and appalled!
Damn, I switched communities to have a local argument (and I remembered I had an account here), but after seeing how us-centric dotworld has become when the account view changed, I’m not switching back.
that looks like a fun comm. to be padantic luigi didnt neccessarly kill a head of state just was just a ceo
To be pedantic, it’s spelled pedantic.
In the US it’s the same thing.
Is it illegal where their instance is located?
Who cares? Have balls about your tiny and insignificant website, you’re not gonna get jailed because some user posted something on your lemmy instance
Just a shield for their shite opinions
I care. That’s why i asked. It’s interesting to see how other places differ from my own. Interesting that irritated you so easily.
Interesting that irritated you so easily.
Fun y that you think I’m irritated
Sure buddy, sure.
Why would your comment irritate me at all, homie? Or do you just see someone saying anything with conviction as being emotionally riled up because you’re too much of a milquetoast coward to have any yourself?
Literally relaxing in a hot bath of Epsom salts rn, relaxed and chill as could be
Great story. Riveting.
Oh no, it’s retarded
nah, click bait question (the meme establishes it’s illegal). You then turn into instigating an argument, “Have balls” means have courage, you added a tone of irritation I assume to establish @[email protected] as a perceived target you wanted to argue with.
If you just cared, you would’ve just had
I care. That’s why i asked. It’s interesting to see how other places differ from my own.
done, finite. But then the little troll comes out
Interesting that irritated you so easily.
So were the statements from gamer triggering to you or were you just looking for an argument already?
Neither. Just a typical internet convo.
lol that’s fair.
“You know how a popular time travel question is, if you could go back and kill Hitler, would you? People are going to be asking the same about Trump and Musk (and Vance and Thiel and a whole mess of others) if the dust ever settles.”
Bleak when only a time traveler from the future can save the world from impending doom at this point.
The dust always settles eventually.
Just that it may be radioactive dust this time
And that’s the big thing that worries me. In the last world war, even in an all-out war with no holding back, there was a limited amount of damage that could be done to the world and civilization. Today? We have enough nukes to destroy human civilization a dozen times over.
Go back and make sure everyone involved in Teapot Dome scandal actually get arrested and charged.
Teapot Dome, Business plot, Watergate, Iran-Contra, and never end reconstitution on the south.
Trump leads to an independent and united Europe
Lmfao, do you live under a fucking rock?
Fascist parties have been gaining power all over Europe (and elsewhere) for ages, and have gotten significantly emboldened and actively backed by him since he became
presidentwhatever his dictatorial title will end up being.Check the username. Also, Western Europe (excluding Britain) is taking this threat pretty seriously if you follow current affairs.
Western Europe (excluding Britain) is taking this threat pretty seriously
What an odd exclusion to make… The government might not be taking it seriously, but most others aren’t either (and why would they? they serve capitalism, not society). Plenty of the people here (in Britain, in case it wasn’t clear) are just as concerned as the rest of Europe (and the world)…
The Fuhrer shot himself, if I recall. Not that I wouldn’t go back in time to shoot him again.
Shoot him earlier, before he killed all those people.
Wouldn’t change anything, he only joined an already existing movement and became its leader, but without him it’d simply have been someone else.
Start at the peace treaties after ww1, already make them similar to the ones after ww2 (promoting strong European collaboration to ensure peace instead of punishing the losers).
Shoot the next one too
Aktshually Article 20 subsection 4 of the German Basic Law gives me explicit leeway to shoot the Führer:
(4) All Germans shall have the right to resist any person seeking to abolish this constitutional order if no other remedy is available.
And on his birthday, too!
That is so fucking awesome honestly.
“Hey we had someone try this before, if they try again, you are to stop them by any means necessary.”
Turns out learning from mistakes and history works.
