I don’t consider this a shitpost.

[–] FlyingSquid 15 points 9 months ago (2 children)

I've been thinking about it and it doesn't really qualify as a shitpost to me either, but I'm going to let it stay for now unless it turns into a complete clusterfuck. @[email protected], this isn't really in the spirit of this community. A list of people Conservatives have fearmongered with isn't especially amusing, which is kind of the point around here.

One thing I wish would have died with Reddit is this adamant OCD of "putting everything exactly where it belongs, and only one time until the end of time". What if a post is both "wtf" and "shitpost" at the same time? You wouldn't be able to post it to either because both would theoretically reject it as not belonging there. It would be trivial to find a reason for every single post made to this sublemmy to be removed because it violated some minute nuance of some kind of Platonic ideal form of "shitpost".

Anyone who has ever tried to micro-organize a whole ocean of things ranging from files on a HDD to the complete stock of a supermarket will know being rigidly committed to a strict definition based structure is unfeasible and a completely non-working model.

I think it is pretty implicit that a post in this community should strive to have a level of amusement. I sure don't find this post amusing, do you? It's far too accurate and disgusting to be amusing.

People do not come to Lemmy Shitpost to get pissed off. That's pretty much the opposite of why people come here.

[–] anarchy79 1 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago) (1 children)

First off you are just avoiding answering the actual points.

Secondly, you are illustrating the very issue with your answer. Let's say I disagree. I might not, actually, but let's say. Is there really an objective end to the discussion, or does it all just come down to personal preference? How many users have we got here, a couple of thousand? We are all going to disagree on the details, always.

My point is that it's a shit system, and only encourages this type of nonsense argumentation in the comments of whether something belongs in the red box or in the blue box. It's busywork for the simple minded.

[–] FlyingSquid 2 points 9 months ago* (last edited 9 months ago) (1 children)

Please explain why you think people want to be pissed off when they come to Lemmy Shitpost.

[–] anarchy79 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Please address the issues I outlined.

[–] FlyingSquid 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Nope. I'm not interested in your issues. And if you have an issue with my moderation, please take it up with the Lemmy.world admins. You can find a list of their names in the sidebar on Lemmy.world's front page.

Also, I'm sorry you find my polite request to please avoid posting this sort of thing in Lemmy Shitpost in future so unreasonable. OP seemed fine with my request.

[–] anarchy79 1 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Well I'm not interested in your fucking issue, and don't tell me to go talk to your mum about it. The fuck do you think you are? I was the one proposing an argument, and you were the buttstuck child. You know it, I know it. Now go ahead and ban me, you CLASSIC reddit mod.

[–] FlyingSquid 2 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Nope. I won't ban you, I'll just stop replying to you after this.

However, if I see you talking to a regular user of the community like this, you will be banned for violating community rule 1 as stated in the sidebar:

  1. Be Respectful

Refrain from using harmful language pertaining to a protected characteristic: e.g. race, gender, sexuality, disability or religion.

Refrain from being argumentative when responding or commenting to posts/replies. Personal attacks are not welcome here.

Again, please feel free to contact Lemmy admin if you have any issues with my moderation.

Have good Sunday.
