Guilt by association fallacy. Both of these things are bad. Not wanting to see an ancient monument be defaced does not make you a Tory.

ArmokGoB ,

They will because they're backed by the US.

ArmokGoB ,

In prison you're forced to work, so they're just expanding the slave class we have in the US.

ArmokGoB ,

I want my kids to have superpowers though.

ArmokGoB ,

If I call you "stupid," "moronic," or "intellectually bankrupt" you know what I'm saying. Getting offended by the specific wording of an ad hominem, while giving synonymous terms a pass, is truly some of the finest hair-splitting I have ever had the displeasure of seeing.

ArmokGoB ,

I'll be sure to report every post and comment fitting these criteria and watch as nothing happens.

ArmokGoB ,

Intellectually-disabled people were originally defined with words such as "morons" or "imbeciles", which then became commonly used insults.

I don't see anyone getting a ban anywhere for calling someone a "moron," for any other reason than making an ad hominem. The thought is almost laughable.

ArmokGoB ,

You can only cut out so many people in so many industries before the economy collapses. I'd like to see what it would look like if like 30% of people lost their careers to AI. Maybe there would finally be a push for UBI and/or stronger tax laws for large corporations.

ArmokGoB ,

I've taken some practice swords to the face while wearing a plate helmet, if that counts.

ArmokGoB ,

When I worked there, they wouldn't assign me tasks and then blamed me when nothing got done.

ArmokGoB ,

That cop should have been dragged into the streets for doing that. How is this acceptable to people?

ArmokGoB ,

They would still be outnumbered by a stadium full of people.

ArmokGoB ,

It should escalate until people are in open warfare against the police and national guard for their lack of responsibility, racism, and countless human rights violations.

ArmokGoB ,

Mass censorship is very cool and definitely not a stepping stone to an authoritarian hellscape.

ArmokGoB ,

I got an instance ban from ML for two weeks because they treat "tankie" like some sort of slur.

ArmokGoB ,

I am 100% sure this is sabre rattling.

ArmokGoB ,

100 mg of caffeine is like 8 oz of coffee. Most people I know have 2-4 times that a day.

ArmokGoB ,

You are certainly entitled to that opinion.

ArmokGoB ,

Anti-AI people tend to be grifters just as much as the people who think AI (in it's current form) will solve all our problems.

ArmokGoB ,

Hexbear is a instance run by tankies that spread their shit ideology and quash any dissent where they have the power to do so. Lemmy.ml is the exact same, except it's much bigger and run by the Lemmy devs. I don't think they should get a pass, and I think that Lemmy will become tankie Voat if this is allowed to continue indefinitely.

I came here because Reddit was being run by corporate scum that only cared about profits, and they crossed too many lines. I thought I could get a new start away from all the mod/admin abuse. I'm starting to realize that basically every instance's and community's admins abuse their powers to push their agenda, whether it's political or trying to maximize membership, to the detriment of their larger userbase.

I don't think this is a winning fight, even if LML is effectively quarantined, but I'd like to buy time by mass-defederating them.

ArmokGoB ,

The two outcomes I see are:

  1. We slowly bleed off users until all that remain are tankies, fascists, etc.
  2. We effectively have two Fediverses, where one is LML, LG, Hexbear, and everyone that wants to allow users and sympathizers from those instances, and the other is everyone else.
ArmokGoB ,

Makes me wonder if the Lemmy devs are getting a kickback

ArmokGoB ,

The CPP and USSR are about as communist as the DPRK is democratic.

ArmokGoB ,

I got a 14 day instance ban for calling a tankie a tankie on ML. Their authoritarian ideology is dangerous and it needs to be quarantined.

ArmokGoB ,

No way the LW admins would shut down controversy. It would impact their engagement and they wouldn't get to see number go up.

ArmokGoB ,

I blocked ML months ago. I'm still going to keep calling for large instances to defederate, because sticking my fingers in my ears doesn't make the problem go away.

Lemmy.ml tankie censorship problem

I feel like we need to talk about Lemmy's massive tankie censorship problem. A lot of popular lemmy communities are hosted on lemmy.ml. It's been well known for a while that the admins/mods of that instance have, let's say, rather extremist and onesided political views. In short, they're what's colloquially referred to as...

ArmokGoB ,

LW needs to defederate from LML so that they aren't being spoonfed users from the biggest instance.

ArmokGoB ,

World is run like Reddit was 5 years ago. LML is actually a shithole run by tankies. Two different levels of shitty.

ArmokGoB ,

Don't do work that requires uploading your work to the internet before being paid if you're not okay with some people experiencing it for free.

ArmokGoB ,

When we played PF2e (for 2.5 years), the amount of times we used a hero point to reroll into a natural 1 was statistically unlikely.

ArmokGoB ,

Everyone has the right to complain about whatever bullshit they want.

ArmokGoB Mod ,

No one's stopping you from making art if you want to, and you will be better at it than an AI.

ArmokGoB Mod ,

Capitalism is the reason why AI doing art is a problem.

ArmokGoB ,

I'd swap the chickens for ducks and swap the rabbit enclosures for somewhere to butcher game.

ArmokGoB ,

Don't let half measures be the enemy of the bare minimum.

ArmokGoB ,

I wouldn't be so sure it will get much better. It might just stagnate, barely getting any better as we reach the limits of what is possible with our current hardware.

ArmokGoB ,

Too busy abusing their mod powers to enforce their political views in most communities.

ArmokGoB ,

We shouldn't be giving them a platform.

ArmokGoB ,

That should be grounds for removal of the post.

ArmokGoB ,

Hope and despair are both meaningless when they aren't backed up by effective action.
