There has to be some Luigi's Mansion-subreddit they could jump over to?

Luigi's Mansione

In the past, they would ban a bunch of hate subs to poison the well on any reddit alternative, but I think they're reluctant to ban any right wing subs because of how marketable that group is.

[–] then_three_more 159 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Remind me, just how long did it take them to ban thedonald?

[–] Pacattack57 113 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Years bro. The absolute dregs of society gathered there and it took years to ban it.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago

First 4 chan leaked the fascists to reddit and now they only shoutbtoneach other and need new victims to listen to their bullshit.

Thats why they are here. The need an (annoyed) audience.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 day ago

Years. Then they banned the chapo subreddit to prove it wasn’t political.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Tanky or Linux. Pick a side.

[–] some_random_nick 4 points 1 day ago

Linux is too broad. It should be "arch btw." and everybody else.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 1 day ago (4 children)

Semi fascist mods from reddit seem to leak to non political subs here on Lemmy too.

Could someone please explain to me how I can access the public mod log? I would love to know why I'm banned from memes at lemmy.ml .... it has something to do with china being closer to fascism than communism.... but I can't say more about the core reason. Except maybe... don't discuss with a mod or it's cronies.

[–] [email protected] 23 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Go to the instance in question, scroll to the bottom of the page, click modlog.

You were rather predictably banned for criticizing China. You hit the nail on the head with your last statement, if a .ml mod or admin are participating in a given thread, don’t even bother

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)
[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago

No prob. Sorry you had a rough run in with that group, it’s unfortunately an all too common problem.

[–] Rhoeri 8 points 1 day ago

You were probably banned from .ml. because speaking against the hive there falls within their vague β€œeverything we don’t like is a rule 1 violation!”

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I imagine if they were properly communist, the US would have never allowed them to rise. There'd have been assassinations, coups, and purposeful destabilizations like we saw in south america.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago

Do you mean China? So, just to frontload this - I don't think China or any Marxist-Leninist states managed to be properly communist, outside of symbolism. There's material reasons for that, too, mostly that the cycle of capital accumulation from labour -> reinvestment into productive forces continued in an exploitative way. Both Mao and Stalin wrote things trying to justify that dynamic persisting, Mao's most damning comment comes from a footnote on a document from 1953, which can be found as "On State Capitalism" on marxists.org. Stalin meanwhile wrote "Economic Problems of Socialism in the USSR", which has intersting stuff like "The Law of Value Under Socialism", and was very influential in China.

But at the time of the Chinese Civil War and Mao's faction winning out, the US simply wasn't the powerhouse of international meddling it was, yet. Even so, western allies tried to focus their support on the Chinese Nationalists and KMT, but they proved to be too incompetent and disorganised at the time. When the US started to court the People's Republic of China again much later, it was because of the conflict between the Soviet Union and China, as well as there being a huge market for industrial and consumer goods, as well as for investing accumulated (dead) capital beckoning.

Point being: It's a bit of a fallacy to imagine the US as this omnipotent international imperialist, especially before the Cold War. Not that they don't do a lot of meddling, but they aren't able to just do anything to anyone everywhere (even though secret services, be it CIA, FSB or Mossad - they will always want you to believe in their omniscience and omnipotence).

I can’t link to it, because I’m on the app, but the modlog says a rule one violation (civility), with no removed or quoted comment, so……..

I came here to get away from Reddit. Not only is it becoming more and more like it, too many posts in my feed are about it. If I wanted to go back there I would. Haven't been in at least 14 months. Please go to Reddit to complain about Reddit.

"Free speech." Fuck Spez and his sycophants.

[–] brucethemoose 7 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)
[–] Sam_Bass 27 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Yeah reddit has a CEO after all

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 day ago

You may be onto something...

[–] [email protected] 49 points 1 day ago (3 children)

Spez is probably heading to mar a Lago now to make his $1mil "donation"

[–] Diplomjodler3 10 points 1 day ago

There's a very long queue for sucking Donnie's chode.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 day ago

He'll be looking over his shoulder

[–] Jumpingspiderman 11 points 1 day ago

Fuck Reddit

[–] [email protected] 73 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Every radical (or at least perceived as radical) sub ends up like this.

[–] [email protected] 110 points 2 days ago (11 children)

Ehem, it's only the wrong kind of radical that gets banned there.

[–] FelixCress 30 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (3 children)

Try to say something about Israeli genocide of Palestinians and they will ban you straight away. I've been there.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 day ago

Got banned from the default politics sub for pointing out that the reason hamas has support is that the palestinians see them as actually doing something about the oppression, unlike the palestinian authority that just rolls over.

Was told that was β€œviolent content”. The enshittification continues.

.world might be next with the Luigi banning…

But the more important question is, will it be Elon Musk or Anderson Cooper who first calls Lemmy pedos?

[–] Donkter 20 points 1 day ago

Fortunately/unfortunately Lemmy isn't big enough to move the needle on any of these conservative's radars. Until it proves that it can influence a significant fraction of their demographic they don't care.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 day ago

Oh well. Federation makes this a non issue.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 2 days ago

Yeah, from what I understand, .world is hosted in a country where suggesting that someone should die is really not allowed, so, it makes sense (if the person that said that was accurate). At least its not virtue signaling or adhering to the whims of the rich like over at R.
