They’ve also been banning accounts for liking comments about Green Mario doing nothing wrong. It’s about the closest thing to thought crime I’ve ever seen. (PS Green Mario did nothing wrong)
I don’t mean this as an attack at all, but isn’t calling Luigi “Green Mario” a way to comply with the wired reddit cencorship?
We are on Lemmy, you can speak freely here.
Or did something just go over my head?
Also innocent until proven guilty, a lot of people seem to forget that one.
Maybe people were actually saying “Green Mario” and not Luigi.
Whether or not they were being ironic, we HAVE to stop capitulating to corporations deciding how we speak and what we can and can’t talk about. They successfully turned our own social messaging into a justification to block out conversations about issues that are actually affecting us.
(No, to the chud about to cry about being censored for spreading misinformation about vaccines, that doesn’t go against corporate incentives, that goes against reason and knowledge, there’s a difference and if you can’t tell, you will when you get older.)
Agreed, you can refer to him by name here lol. Or Saint Luigi if you prefer ;)
The faster everyone deletes their Reddit, the better we will be. Fuck Reddit.
I only have one account for porn right now. Made with a temporary email. I won’t shed any tears if i had to delete that one.
There’s plenty here lol. No excuse! lol, jk
So why isn’t Elon Musk banned then?
Rules for thee not for me.
Violence is a double edged sword. It can easily swing the other way. Elon might be misjudging how that sword is balanced.
The irony here is that violence is a necessary action when the bourgeoisie (Billionaires) leaves the working class no other option. But what he’s saying is that state violence is justified to maintain the status quo.
I was banned for harassment. I followed 6 accounts that posted tons of misinformation about elons nazi salute.
They’d defend him at all cost, call everyone else sheep, “Roman salute”, he’s autistic, you’re such a n idiot for hating on him. Posted still frame images of anyone with raised hands and claimed them to be identical to nazi boy Elon.
I got a notification every time they posted something to a sub I frequented. I would comment their recent post history and how their most extreme lies in defense of Elon.
Reddit said that was considered harassment. Not what those accounts did, but my action to their posts and comments. Spez is such a fucking spineless cunt.
“I’m peaceful because I am capable of kicking your ass” has true mall ninja energy.
“you studied humanity [and made friends] while I studied the blade”
I remember reading self-defense writings by Marc MacYoung (who is a fascist mind you, but he is very good at martial arts and understanding criminal dynamics) and the first ever time I heard the ‘better a monster who can control it, than a sheep who is not capable of violence’ or that effect, and he ripped that entire saying a new one. He said how once the violent beast in someone is built up, it simply won’t be easy to control and will fuck you up. There is simply no way around it. Criminals, abusers, and assholes whom people want nothing to do with and people who spend countless nights in jail for petty shit are all the actual ‘warriors in a garden’ come to life.
Also the whole thing is shit. During ww1 and ww2 the US had a pathetic military at the start, but when the war got going they still outfought the Nazis and Imperial Japanese who were fully and completely into the whole permanent warrior mentality.
Got my ban yesterday for expressing my displeasure with Danielle Smith. Reddit has sold out
My 15 year old account got banned last week, too. On one hand it kinda sucks, but on the other hand it feels good to get out of that site’s echo chamber. Reddit is really circling the drain.
I had my 13 year old account also busted up due to that last summer.
Here’s my new thing.
All the people with critical thinking skills are leaving in droves. Leaving a massive bot farm authoritarian echo chamber in its wake.
As far as they’re concerned we’re the problem and it solved itself.
Really? Fuck that shit. Good thing I deleted my reddit account. I technically have one that I just use for porn. But I sure as hell am not posting anything with that shit.
The peace in peaceful is not of the “peace and war” kind. It’s of the “peace and quiet” kind.
Important distinction.
Fuck reddit.
Ironically, what Musk posted is perfectly acceptable ( in and of itself, ignoring the context of the person who is saying it ) since violence or the threat of violence is sometimes necessary to prevent things getting worse. For example, “Ukraine should be helped to defend itself” is a call for violence.
Which is why it’s such a bullshit excuse to ban speech for that reason alone. I got banned for suggesting France might help out the USA by shipping over any surplus guillotines. I’m sure they would have no issue at all if I were enthusiastically advocating genocide. Never mind, I needed a push to make the move to Lemmy ; )
My ban from reddit was 100% related to calling for the arrest and judicial execution of netenyahu. Which is not an unreasonable thing to say given that he is nothing more than a modern Hitler.
I will take it back. Netenyahu should not be tried at all I’m any court. But simply tied up, have the charges read against him, and promptly shot through the head at point blank range.
The line is state sponsored violence, generally. Likely with a little bias on what state is on the giving and receiving ends of said violence. Thats the rule at least so far as I can tell, at least.
I think you’re right, but that’s even more concerning. A fully fascist take on what is acceptable speech.
Eastern ex-ukraine should be helped to defend itself from fascist Banderites.
That gets you banned from Reddit, or some mild criticism of the Palestinian genocide.
The vile calls for violence and racist Russophobia on there could stay on there.
Not a peep from the hypocrites then.
Now that the other part of the US regime controls Reddit they suddenly wake up and care about free speech.
Why am I not surprised?
The oligarchy owns 90% of social media so it’s no surprise
You’re wording it as if we shouldn’t be outraged anyways.
Be as outraged as you want but at the end of the day social media is a business and they’ve chosen to no longer do business with you.
If anything, be outraged at all the other shit the oligarchy are planning to do.
Yeah i don’t post anymore since reddit turned into 1984
where have you been for the last decade?
It was regime controlled garbage for a long time, now they suddenly complain.
