[–] [email protected] 20 points 4 days ago (1 children)

~~Except they just don’t have to provide the service if they don’t want to. So no, not like any other company?~~

Edit: wait you were being sarcastic weren’t you

lemmy might be getting a small influx of class conscious former redditors after this

How much you wanna bet you can find the Unibomber's manifesto or Mein Kampf somewhere on that site? And when you do, how much you wanna bet it's heavily upvoted and was posted on there years ago?

Pretty sure they also have the Columbine shooters' levels for Doom on there, too.

You mean like it is around here?

[–] [email protected] 37 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago) (3 children)

The difference is that Reddit is either actively pushing or is being pressured to push the ruling class' narrative that killing a CEO is bad. No one here is saying that, they have issues with the shooter because of who he allegedly is, not what he did.

As usual the mods made a unilateral decision without consulting the userbase, with vague criteria as to what will result in a ban(seems almost arbitrary based on individual mods from a scan of the log)

Obviously I'm not comparing the admin and mods here to reddit ones, I appreciate their labour in making my leftist shitposting site run smoothly and proactively crack down on bigotry, but honestly I don't think the phrase 'power tripping' is outside the realm of this conversation

This is nominally supposed to be leftist shitpositing site run with at least some democratic participation from the userbase, but time and time again the discorderati play at 'vanguard party' leading to long term users(obviously talking about those without chudy post histories) leaving and growth dyeing and struggle session that just sow animosity with rarely an actual improvement in site culture

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I'm not sure which moderators and user base you're talking about.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 4 days ago

hexbear's, didn't realise you were from another instance soz

[–] [email protected] 11 points 4 days ago

The effect is the same. Mods make vague threats and people are afraid to talk about the subject.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 4 days ago (2 children)

Driving the moderator behaviour here is the fear of being sued whilst operating a social media platform, which is the risk you run when you host an instance in the fediverse.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 4 days ago (1 children)

If that's the case, then the moderators should communicate that instead of keeping reasoning hidden from the public

[–] [email protected] 7 points 4 days ago

They're from another instance, AFAIK our mods don't care about that aspect, and only care about limiting critical support for possible fascists.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 days ago

Sued? By who?

fedposting

[–] [email protected] 17 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

ohhhh you mean the fediverse in general, yeah? Some instances are less cowardly about that and take a less paranoid view of liability. You could certainly post the text of the manifesto on this instance, or discuss it, at least within the bounds of this being a firmly leftist space.

The hexbear ppl replying to this comment below are referring to something else though: some of our mods are upset about the "lionisation" of Mangione, since while he did a fine thing, he also had some bad opinions that people are willing to sweep under a rug for the sake of claiming a win. And at least one mod has even decided to just say mangione isn't even the shooter (I assume in an attempt to separate the "art" from the "artist" lol)
