Whoo boy, looks like the .world mods are enforcing silent compliance with fascist brutality again, thats a lot of highly upvoted deleted comments.
One of these days they'll suck the boot so far down their throats they'll asphyxiatiate, but at least they'll pass with joyful tears in their eyes.
Whenever I see "Removed by mod" on a .world community, I know it probably said something I agree with. News communities shouldn't be hosted there.
Maybe, but people need to learn to speak in plausible deniability. You can check the user's moderation history to see what they said. Fascists were able to advance their ideas without getting shutdown with indirect speak and double talk. Maybe we need to learn the same.
My comment was oblique; I agreed with an historical quote then made a LOTR reference. No overt calls for violence. Still removed.
e: Please check my moderation history to see what I said. I was the 3rd comment in that thread.
Fascists love to take the gun, but leave the cannoli…
They were talking about watering the tree of liberty. I'm sure you can find the correct quote and infer who was being referenced.
Whenever I see "Removed by mod" I check the mod log to see what was said. Its one of the best ways to get me to read and up/down vote something.
Patriots and tyrants, yep.
Careful…
"The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time by patriots asking tyrants really nicely to please stop brutally oppressing them."
It needs a lot of watering.
We need to move on from .world. Don’t upvote any posts here.
Should I not have upvoted your comment or….
e: I downvoted then upvoted you again to balance it out, just in case.
Are there recommended news subs that aren't hosted on .world?
!news@beehaw.org has lots of subscribers.
(e: ~23k)
Appreciate it! Subscription pending.
How do I get to it. I’m in .world. Clicking link tells me it doesn’t exist. E: weren’t they defederated by .world?
Stop being on world.
Leave lemmy.world obviously! Come join us at Lemmy.Zip
Or blahaj! We love everyone at blahaj as long as you don't hate us. Plus we have Ada.
Wait, you can’t see that instance from .world?
That sounds crazy. I’m not sure how this all works, but that sounds like a reason to create an account on a different instance, because it sounds like .world is censoring your content.
I can see pretty much all instances (unless I block them myself).
Or am I misunderstanding?
(Yes, I get defederation, but that seems overly restrictive)
.world defederate and blocked a ton of communities. obviously some of them seems bordering on illegal, but they are also blocking alot of other ones.
Oh.i guess I wasn’t paying attention.
My instance has blocked all the shady shit, but apparently not as much as .world. And I don’t see shady shit, so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
its mostly all Porn that are boedering on CSAM, or SA that have been blocked when i looked on the list.
Wait, beehaw is? I guess I’m only subbed to the news community there, which was the second-most active news community after .world.
Is that instance shady?
I’ll stop recommending ot if so. O.o
