This cartoon from The Seattle Times illustrates how America's economic pizza is actually sliced per capita, highlighting the massive disparity between the Top 1%, the merely wealthy, the upper middle class, and the lower 50%.

Mod log just says "Ban evasion, repeated violations of ToS" across a few dozen coms. I guess mods got sick of them.

    I've noticed lately a lot of mods are banning people posting a lot. Which is really fucking stupid because they are removing the people creating interaction. Even if they are just copy and pasting from reddit. A) who cares, b) many people here aren't on reddit, and c) the mods are going to kill their own communities if they keep this up.

    There was recently a discussion about this from someone who crossposts stuff from reddit to lemmy and got banned for it. Opinions vary but it's mostly anti reddit. Can't find it now though. Myself I'm not sure. Importing trends and "reinforcement learning" or manufacturing cons(t)ent from reddit is problematic. But it's not like most lemmies aren't already trained like good little dogs to be neoliberal imperialists. I mostly see the same shite trending on lemmy as on reddit.

    It definitely is hilarious that the top post on lemmy currently has double banned tags lol

    I dont know about hilarious. The largest lemmy instance banning users for posting content they dont like from reddit? Thats more than just stupid. Its a message what Lemmy is becoming. When Reddit is more free than Lemmy, we have sad days ahead on this social network.
