I figured it was the Piefed or similar creator given the context. Just wasn't sure. Part of the reason I switched from lemmy world to Piefed social

    I switched specifically because tankies are pissy about piefed.

    I literally wouldn't have had any interest if not for the one two punch of the above, plus the cunty moderation antics of Dessalines et. al. on .ml.

    Piefed literally has social credit score lol. The dude in charge is a nanny who thinks the users aren't wise enough to do their own blocking. There's been a shit ton of drama surrounding that dork in recent weeks, and all he's done is dig in.

    I would engage with you on your instance, but i appear to have been banned on .ml

    I highly suspect that you will have a long leash here, and will be allowed to say just about whatever you want.

    Consider that the source of your consternation is that you do not appreciate piefed's Tit, for .ml's Tat.

    cold warrior got a temp ban on two comms, not the instance (and it's already expired) for calling people you don't like russian.

    This feels like a word salad.

    I think you were trying for some sort of gotcha or zinger.

    I'm feeling generous, so good ahead and pretend im flustered for a bit.

    Bask in your cleverness.

    it's just a common theme that belligerent assholes will go around insulting people until they get a slap on the wrist from a mod, then pivot to acting as if they're some free speech warrior who has been unjustly silenced.

    idk how to spell this out for you more.

    Uhhh, yeah you were making threats on people's lives lol

    Bruh, you yourself just had your leash yanked on .world

    What are you even talking about? Rimu is an authoritarian is the point.

    I stand by every syllable.

    But just for funzies, I will take you to task, and get you to explain with precision how "I" would be the source of the death threat, if the Russian Military sent an underperforming troll to the front line?

    Are you suggesting that I have the power to get the Russian Military to press a troll into service?

    If a Russian troll gets sent to fight in Ukraine, they would get a personalized drone visit.

    Those are just facts.

    Bruh, you yourself just had your leash yanked on .world

    Yes. And?

    Here are other "Threats" and "racist" and "hateful" facts that get deleted on .ml:

    Stalin was actually a very bad man who executed a lot of Russians.

    The net immigration/defection trend during the Cold War, was people fleeing from the Warsaw Pact, and not to the Warsaw Pact.

    Your comments here will likely stay up here, while .ml moderation demands that Stalin be venerated, and that Putin's Cold War revivalist bullshit is just peachy keen.

    The designation of .ml feels inaccurate. It should be .mS for marxist Stalinist. Capital S for Stalin, and just a little m for Karl, based on the reality of how .ml actually is.

    So when you're making tea, each and every time you discuss with people around the matter of correct water temperature?

    Instead of using an analogy, describe the things that are perfectly reasonable to impose without consulting those affected.

    What are you attempting to brush off here?

    I'm not brushing off anything, only pointing out that you must be very tedious person to be around. Analogy served as an less abstract example of casual discussion of a topic with which all parties are familiar, where you don't have to scream your lungs out stating the obvious (and more often bullshit).

    I dunno, maybe you just prefer liberal critiques and discourse, but as those are generally fruitless, to use them and get angry that they're frowned upon in leftist spaces is strange at the very least.

    I despise Authoritarianism, and the awful toll that it takes on the upward march of humanity.

    An uncomfortable truth is still the truth.

    All criticism directed towards Stalin's brutality gets sanitized on .ml

    When Stalin's mass killings get pointed out as a solid fucking reason that he was a bad man, it gets scrubbed.

    It's the moderation style that blows, in conjunction with the absolute love affair with authoritarianism.

    If they make it .ms, the m might as well stand for Mao

    It could stand for Mao, but the Stalin ball-gargling sort of shoves Chairman Mao off to the side.

    EDIT: Instead of downvoting, consider a mild break from fondling Stalin's scrotum, and give Chairman Mao some love.

    Well, the Lemmy devs have stated that their goal isn't to design a system that scales well and it shows. Part of it is that there may be a future where there are too many new users for a mod team to handle, especially if the barrier for signing up is extremely low.

    You'd think a bunch of self proclaimed communists would support someone cloning software for free. Hexbear is such a joke.

    Hexbear was a fork of Lemmy that was merged back into the main build, which sh.it.just.works runs on. You are using their cloned software for free right now. That's obviously not their issue.

    Perhaps if we were talking about sane individuals with consistent beliefs, but these people are hypocrisy incarnate. Years of being isolated in a cult environment has rotted their brains into what you see here.

    No, I'm pointing out you're objectively incorrect, you can't just go "but they're soooo crraaaaaazy!" and pretend it validates your opinion you stupid little child.

    You didn't state any objective facts other than stating it was a fork of lemmy. For someone who considers themselves to have such an elevated intellect, I'm surprised you didn't realize that.

    Do you have a humiliation fetish or something?

    • Fact 1: Hexbear was originally forked from Lemmy
    • Fact 2: Dessalines and Nutomic later merged Hexbear's changes back into lemmy.
    • Fact 3: Shit.sorta.works runs on the current version of Lemmy, which contains Hexbear's changes.
    • Fact 4: You do not have to pay Hexbear to use Lemmy

    This is about knowledge, not intellect, and you know nothing.

    You're going into topics nobody was talking about. I think you need to improve your own reading comprehension before asking others to improve their intellect.

    I love the way sometimes it's "fuck him and everything he stands for!" and other times "damn straight, I stand with him for the things he stands for!"

    Sometimes the Tankies claim they stand with X because X opposes Y, but then if anybody mentions all the times X stood with Y and all the times X said things they clearly don't stand for, then they have no response but "you've been brainwashed by the media".
