It is more disaffected people than nazis. At least the places I was at there. The site wide moderation is pretty fucked in favor of powerful interests, including Nazis however. They like to chase off real people that are driving engagement in favor of the legions of influence agents with their bot accounts.

Keep in mind if the Reddit stock price fell too much some hedge fund vulture would buy up a majority of the stock and then turn it into Nazi town.

It would be cool to add another forum for people to organize around ideas and issues, be able to take collective actions, and organize into private groups as they see fit.

It is about the only thing that could save us from the kakistocracy, rule of the worst, we are saddled with.

Guy made convincing points, the rifle penetrated like 3/8 inch steel plate at range, and obliterated all tests.

The other stuff too, they are definitely covering something up.

Which makes the israeli suspicion make more sense. There was some sort of falling out with him and their israeli bff’s and their superfans. Including a video not long after 10/6 where he basically admits they are nazis and suprisingly showed a little apprehension at being allied with that.

Like wtf did he think he was doing here? But still.

If we had a strong reform minded government, our leaders could oppose these parasites, and then make examples out of those that mistreat our productive companies. Like which of these private Equity douchebags can’t be hit with a crime for something or another? Not a single one, you can get everyone with the tax evasion charges.

We need leaders that protect us from these monied parasites.

Already happened, hospitals, clinics, ambulances, but also housing.

These parasites are going to ruin us all and we are doing nothing about it.

They wanted to run the United States like Bain Capital as well. Thank God we came to our senses and instead ran it like the dirty real estate developer in bed with the mob!

I read something about the birth of these private Equity firms sometime in the late 70s or early '80s when a firm bought out this other productive firm and loaded them up with debt, paid themselves every which way they could, sold off any profitable parts of the company, then declared bankruptcy and stiffed everybody else walking away with a boatload of cash, unemployed workforces, and razed Pension funds.

We have been celebrating this type of behavior for decades now, Behavior I think exemplified in Monty Python’s skits of the pirate building seizing the other buildings like it was a pirate ship.

Does not make sense to me, but that bit was not doctrine until 350 ad.

You just taught me as much bible as I have ever learned, last lesson being south park raining frogs.

Huh, sounds like a lot, where is the case well made it is off piece by piece you have a good source or something?

Mexicans fry ice cream. Not sure how that works though.

Blahaj bans people under false pretenses. They are not subtle about it.

Your description of them is laughably wrong. Using protecting vulnerable people as an excuse to shut down people that disagree with you or your pals in a way that does not violate any rules is not protecting vulnerable people in fact it could be making them less protected all around.

Idk if federated alternatives are to reach critical mass we would need instances that have a clear set of rules, that you could challenge if a moderator applied them unfairly, and even opted for a trial amongst your peers for if it was against the rules. Allowing moderators to be Petty tyrants in a feudalistic system attracts the wrong people that will prevent the fedivers from achieving it’s destined Glory.

Likewise moderators found to be abusing their power should have some means of correcting their behavior or removing them. Other moderators cannot be trusted for this, they all protect each other’s rights to be dicks so they can be dicks. We need a better system set up better to start.

I had the same thing, because I thought they were being too vicious against people like author JK Rowling’s while people like Kirk went around talking shit with impunity that was labeled trans hate.

There was Zero plausibility, I called out what I think is an overly aggressive in some parts campaign that has made things worse and was immediately accused of being a bigot myself and then blocked and canceled. No discussion or mod notes just your banned.

People learn they can shut down criticisms with bigotey accusations no matter how flimsy and they use it. Meanwhile they lost the larger cultural fight while they were falsley accusing allies of bigotry. As always on a left purposefully played off each other by organized interests.

I have seen disagreements with dishonesty used for social movements be spun into bigotry, and mods buying that and banning, despite clear bad faith attacks with no basis.

Call someone a bigot of some kinds it immediately shuts down and cancels any points until the accused goes on the defensive.

Those using this tactic in bad faith, like many mods, are cynical pieces of shit. They do not care they are hurting the goals of the movement, just about their place in it as a shit slinger.

That is the big one, but anything that could be taken poorly as bigoted regardless of meaning or truth can get admin actions.

Cultural differences, historical facts, it is all filtered through every flag everyone posts, from influence agencies to keyboard warriors firing from their hip, through an ai system no where as developed as they claim, and overseen by unnamed real people that may be dumb as shit, are working on dishonest metrics.
