Wtf. Why didn’t you mention the cringe lord emperor striker?!
Edit: using my mod powers to get attention.
@admin MOD ABUSE!!!
Mod abuse… how typical. Is your thirst for power satisfied now?
What would happen if we would all be mods? Did you think about it? You didn’t, did you?
Can any mere man wield such ferocious, blinding power?
A terrifyingly, beautiful thing to behold. But only just a glance.
I’m scared, feel like… like an Upper Neolithic man witnessing Nikolai Tesla inside his Faraday cage, as the bright blue electric current crackles and arches all around him.I mean if you have to ask, the answer is obvious.
Thank you god-modereor for showing us the way… By force!
Goderator?
Don’t give them any ideas!
The elon musk mindset. Lmao
Leaching on to mod powers to grab attention, for what purpose, I do not know.
To prevent the all powerful cum tsunami from wiping us all out
Nah, that one seems too funny to miss
Put me in the screenshot
Not me though thanks
One thing that I love about Lemmy is how there are people that I always recognise. And you are one of them!
There’s a lot of other shit but it seems that it’s organically sorting itself out over time.
i seeked lemmy world out, so glad to be here. what finally made me NEED to get away from R****t was the manufactured outrage, clickbait to an incredible degree. people purposely putting up content that reinforces the status quo by encouraging people to get mad about situations that challenge the status quo.
also ridiculously stupid questions, way too many people posting photos of shit and asking “whats wrong here” like come on what the fuck. i’m so sick of it.
@Amoxtli coming up fast in the rankings…
It’s an egregious error to not have The Picard Manuever as our Supreme Ruler
Yes fellow humans I am also a human and enjoy human activities such as consuming nutrient rich bread products and performing my nightly ritual of scraping detritus from my molars. There are no bots on Lemmy, Just fellow human(s).
WHY ARE YOU YELLING
This place is a shit hole. But it’s MY shit hole.
Everyday more and more people use thorbot’s shit hole.
Thorbot’s shit hole has expanded to 10x its previous size in the past year, thanks to increased usage by members of the public.
Which one is the bot and which is the troll?
I’m the bot, obviously.
Lemmy is an echo chamber.
Luckily it’s not a monolith and it’s perfectly easy not to interact with lemmygrad. Is world even federated with them?
Not at all but that’s not the problem. Although grad and communities like them such as r/movingtonorthkoera and r/greenandunpleasent are what is the problem is both .ml and .world are pretty much massive echo chambers. Half the time I’m not quite sure if I’m on Devs instance or world.
You mean every opinion I don’t like isn’t automatically a tankie Russian bot???
yes everyone’s entitled to an opinion
I mean it’s hard not to be when we’re essentially 8 people in a trenchcoat pretending to be social media lol
It has actually made me feel really awkward knowing just how small this place is. I have this tension between not being able to shut the fuck up and also not wanting to be “known” (maybe in the biblical sense though lol)
wow I’m offended but you are right
I have this tension between not being able to shut the fuck up and also not wanting to be “known”
Typical Asafum
Ofmg it’s lemmy microcelebrity Asafum!
I kind of like the size to be honest, feels more like I’m having an impact by commenting instead of just getting added to the bottom of a 2000 comment post. I never really commented on the other site for that reason.
Hey! Hey! I’m over here! Do I need to up my cringe and troll game???
Given how the libs here so readily resort to the unfalsifiable, ad hominem conspiracy theory of accusing anyone who disagrees with them of being a Russian bot, it’s wild to think that there are places they see as even more filled with Russian bots.
I guess you’re part of the American right? You see… the right in the US has been fed a steady stream of Russian propaganda through their talking heads for a while now. So the right has become indistinguishable from Russian bots. Sorry for the confusion!
Why on earth would you think I’m on the American right?
Thought “libs” was an American specific term. My apologies.
Society in general understands it the way you do, the term is just different here on Lemmy lol.
And in the entire rest of the world outside of the US. See the Liberal Democrats of the UK for example. Or, like, formal/academic discussion even within the US. John Locke was a classical liberal, Ronald Reagan was a neoliberal, etc.
It’s only informally, when the right started using it as a scare word, that people started using it differently, and that was relatively recent considering the history of the word.
“Libs” is short for “liberal,” meaning a supporter of capitalism. Those on the American right who aren’t fascists are generally liberals, though they often don’t know what it means. When I criticize liberals, it’s from a leftist/anti-capitalist perspective.
My eyes glazed over as soon as you said libs.
Mine did as soon as I saw Lemmy.ml
You don’t need to tell me that .world’ers don’t like critiques of capitalism/liberalism.
Word “libs” in first 5 words, opinion rejected
Capitalism fan detected, opinion discarded.
Didn’t mention capitalism, and I consider myself a socialist, but go off
You consider yourself a socialist but don’t like people criticizing liberals? Do words mean things? Liberal means you support capitalism.
Criticising liberal policy is absolutely reasonable
Using “the libs” as a catch-all term for “anyone I disagree with” is the marker of an incoming terrible take
I don’t use it that way. There are plenty of people I disagree with who aren’t libs. But in this case I was talking about a specific group of conspiracy theorists who are active on Lemmy who are, general speaking, libs.
“generally speaking” as in “I pulled this stat out of my ass”
Calling you a russian bot isn’t exactly a liberal policy, is it?
If your reasoning for determining someone is “a lib” is saying that, then that’s exactly how you’re using the term.
The fact you immediately assumed I was a capitalist is a pretty compelling argument that you’re not good at determining people’s ideologies based on their unrelated complaints about your bad takes
Not the person u replied to.
Of course I like criticising actual liberals. I just don’t like criticising socialists who don’t like to go the tankie way whom u call liberals.
Who said that?
Lemmy.world is a predominantly liberal instance, not a predominantly Socialist instance. Most people here are liberals and just want to reform Capitalism into a healthier version of itself, rather than change Mode of Production to Socialism.
I got called a liberal for wanting to support cooperatives. I got called a liberal for not wanting to participate in an armed socialist revolution.
I’ve largely seen the word “liberal” being used by tankies to dismiss the opinions of all people that they disagree with.
Всмысле блядь нет русских ботов? Я что для вас, шутка?
бип-буп, на месте
Another social media claims it’s the better than everything else while it’s clearly not for the nth time. Why am I not surprised
Yay not relevant enough to spam/ AstroTurf!
