So we're burning fossil fuels and destroying the planet so bots can try to deceive one another on the Internet in pursuit of our personal data. I feel like dystopian cyberpunk predictions didn't fully understand how fucking stupid we are...

He paid black people to be nice to Musk as a child... and that's his defense!?

they aren't evil

I don't think they are all evil, but they seem to vote for the evil politicians and evil policies that direct hate at the people they don't understand. Every single time...

I've got mixed fellings about this.

Trump denies Musk to be briefed on top-secret plan for potential war with China in c/[email protected]

The man who lies with every breath, who would benefit from people believing Musk won't be briefed... That's who we should listen to, right?

Arkansas bill targets 'gender nonconforming' haircuts for kids in c/[email protected]

The party of "small government" wants to police what haircuts children are allowed to get.

What's the best way to respond to people who say Elon Musk didn't do 2 Nazi salutes at the inauguration because the ADL and "half of America" said he didn't? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 9 points 12 hours ago

Or in Germany, where it's literally illegal. They also have some history with Nazis...

"Anti-Defamation League", lol. I hate how you can just name something a blatant lie. I'm asking my representatives to pass the Today's Economic Stability and Liberty Act. As part of it, Musk has to have each dismantling of a government agency or mass firing of workers approved by Congress, and he has to punch himself in the dick, daily.

Commented on a post with the most recent (non-Breitbart) headline and updates. Added this with 3 independent sources:

FYI, Breitbart is a far-right, low-quality source.

Media Bias Fact Check

Media Bias Chart

AllSides

Mod apparently didn't like a more reputable source being added to their post because it was removed in minutes lol.

reason: Rule 6 Violation

Rule 6: Using the Poisoning The Well fallacy to attack sources shared in a post is presently not allowed (this rule may change in the future, and isolated instances will not subject you to a permanent ban)

Just admit you want an echo chamber to spread disinformation and promote biased articles! Using this rule to police sources is very thinly-veiled censorship...

Still in development? Unblocking bug (feddit.nl)
 

Is Sync still being actively supported/worked on? Also, I found out today I can't unblock another user, tried multiple times, they're still on the list and I can't see their comments. Thanks in advance!

Gig Souls? (feddit.nl)
 

Not sure if this is allowed, so feel free to remove:

My new favorite "fuck around" activity is to employ "gig phantoms". I summon a friendly phantom, then wave and run toward a dog or easy enemy. I point toward it, at which point they dispatch it! I then emote Joy, or Jump for joy, drop the Thank You carving, leave them 1 Ember, then send them home. If you haven't tried it, it's absolutely hilarious...

WTF is a risa!? (feddit.nl)

Hello. It's hugely annoying to look at "community information" and find just an in-joke that won't make sense to most people, and no explanation of what this community is about. I'm sure that's fine for those already initiated, but I still don't know what "risa" means!

Don't worry, I also know you don't care that outsiders are kept out-of-the-loop and maybe even want to keep them out...? Well, that's fine; it's your community, but just a reminder that the casual browser will probably filter this community after several spammed posts that don't even clarify where their interests lie...

EDIT: Don't worry, I'm gone, and I've turned off reply notifications... I have even watched Star Trek! But don't fret, your caustic and hostile replies have ensured you're safe from the curiosity of myself and others, they won't bother you any more! Enjoy your gatekeeping...
