Yes to all the above, and probably a mix of bots and terminally online people getting involved. Not sure what year everyone started becoming unhinged but I think it was at least mid-2010’s.
People are now being perma banned from r/pics of all places for merely posting on the Asmongold subreddit. Yes, it’s become something of an anti-woke echo chamber in recent months, but it’s the main subreddit of Twitch’s most popular streamer.
And now we wondered why 74.7 million Americans voted for Donald Trump last week. Because maybe telling your voters that they’re Nazi scum if they don’t agree with you isn’t a winning strategy, like the world view that most Reddit moderators have.
I mean considering the fact that he flashed himself to a 16 year old girl without any warning, I’d say that tattoo was well deserved.
Oh it’s been like that long before January 6th, and long before Trump even stepped foot in the Republican primaries eight years ago.
That wasn’t me defending Jan 6th either. Trump’s little Beer Hall Putsch was frankly inexcusable, and the fact that he’s likely not going to face any kind of criminal repercussions for it makes the US look weaker than the Weimar Republic.
Because American politics is weird and partisan a f.
Anything even remotely left will get you labelled a Commie or tankie by the right, while anything remotely right will get you labelled a Nazi by the left.
Barbarisms by barbaras, with pointed heels
I’ll wait and see what comes of it. Valve have been singlehandedly responsible for evolving Linux gaming by leaps and bounds, to the point where the only real hurdle right now is anti-cheat compatibility.
Their direct collaboration with Arch is massive for that reason alone
Only drunk people apparently like to do karaoke
I’m thinking the API protests would have been more effective if y’all just stopped moderating entirely instead of locking down subreddits.
Let the site turn into an absolute cesspool.
Meanwhile women: 6 foot, 7 figures, 8 inches or move along.
I used to work for a major business outsourcer. One of their contingency plans in case an office burned down or had to be evacuated was literally to make everybody work in another office 50 miles away.
It was so bad that they weren’t even willing to reimburse travel costs. It was either get there or be fired.
Just do one search for ‘guillotine’ and you’ll find a heapload of comments on Lemmy world and Lemmy.ml
It’s much worse on Reddit. There is a growing lexicon of words you can’t even use in a comment without having a bot swoop in and nuke your post from orbit, all because a snowflake moderator doesn’t like reading them.
I too get your sentiment about Lemmy’s double standards. At least Spez was consistent about banning people for calling for the literal murder of billionaires.
Case in point. Larry Ellison, CEO of Oracle, recently shared his vision of using AI powered mass surveillance to ensure everybody was on their best behaviour. Pretty much everybody on Lemmy called for him to be guillotined, whereas on Reddit such a comment would net you a permanent ban.
I used to drive 15 miles each way to work in an old job that I quit in less than three months
One of my worst commutes was when the floodgates opened and rain pelted down so hard that I couldn’t even see where I was going, even with the wipers set to Mach 12.
Imagine this on a motorway where the speed limit is 70mph…

Day-ta. The latter is how Americans pronounce it?
It’s not bad by any means. Some of the best exploration and puzzle solving in the series but damn the combat sucks.
Now is the time for Europe to rally behind Ukraine. We really should have upped military funding and arms production in preparation for this outcome.
