Serious shit man. Shit post was as close as dank memes was for a while. But, I do understand why they did it and fuck the people that keep post CSAM.

Where am i to find all the CSAM pictures without shitposts on lemmy.world 😞

/s Obviously for you jerks i hate saying '/s' like some dirty redditor

Reddit does not own human communication. Do not give it such power

/s is a really useful tool to convey non seriousness in a textual conversation. Reddit did not invent it. The people that realized there was a gap in understanding and starting to textualize sarcastic tone did.

Just like emoticons and memes where embraced by internet culture before. The human condition earns to expressive itself in new and more nuanced ways.

In other terms: Language is open source.

I agree and let me add one more reason.

I don't claim to represent all dumb people on the internet but being dumb myself, sometimes I need a clear indication that something is sarcastic, otherwise I just don't get it.

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

You don’t need to be dumb to struggle with this sort of thing.

  • the entire autistic community

You sound decently smart to me, being aware or you own flaws and such. The majority of people overestimates there own intelligence and abilities.

The California Society of Addiction Medicine? Maybe try their website: https://csam-asam.org/

(God, they chose a bad name for themselves)

I don't get it. What happened now?

[–] [email protected] 31 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (3 children)

Some shit head(s) were spamming CSAM images

Edit: wow, some homophobic Nazi shitheads were posting CSAM, birds of a feather I suppose...

[–] [email protected] 40 points 1 year ago (4 children)

Specifically they were posting it in retaliation for the community not tolerating or platforming their anti-lgbt nazi "shitposts"

Homophobic Nazi shitheads posting CSAM? I'm shocked! Shocked! Well, not that shocked.

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

Thanks but which instance or community was it? Is this the same one that shut down two days ago or something? I'm confused

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago

It was Lemmy Shitpost community on lemmy.world

[–] AwkwardTurtle 35 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The owners shut it down because some asshat was uploading CP to the servers -_-

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Why not just ban the person?

[–] pgx 40 points 1 year ago

hard to ban a spam attack without also stopping any new sign ups. Also high risk, because the moment some scumbag uploads an image like that, it's hosted on their server and they are legally at risk.

[–] Alterforlett 25 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Apparently they just posted from other instances

[–] [email protected] 33 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

Yes, there were multiple spats of right-wing nazi trolls brigading the /c/ with propaganda spam from multiple alts. I have a feeling it was all one guy who got mad though, at most 2 or 3, because every new instance "alt" had the same memes (focusing on calling trans people pedos) and the same typing and title style. Plus, it initially started with one asshat who had alts with identical usernames spread out across 20+ instances- so it'd make sense he wisened up and kept making alts with new usernames.

Fuckin' no-lifers gotta ruin it for everyone else man.

[–] [email protected] 35 points 1 year ago (1 children)
  1. Call trans people pedos
  2. get banned
  3. Post pedo shit
  4. own the libs???

What the fuck is wrong with these people

What the fuck is wrong with these people

Everything.

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

This will sound mega dumb.

But

I like to think they are this messed up because of some unknown dumb thing. My current take is micro plastics. Microplastics cause them to go off the deep end. Fix that, we fix them too.

It probably isn't, but, it's a nice distraction.

I mean, you joke, but environmental pollution (lead) levels and certain nutritional deficits have a scientifically measurable effect on mental health disorder rates and general intelligence.

The use of leaded gasoline put a huge amount of environmental lead into our living spaces and breathing air. When it was completely phased out in the 1970's and environmental exposure dropped, murder rates dropped by the 1990s in what's known as the lead-crime hypothesis, where childhood exposure to lead of any level alters development negatively.

Hopefully we'll get it back once this nonsense gets resolved. Was it the most popular .World community? Are there any similar ones that might substitute?

[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I think some instance owners having been talking to the team behind Lemmy about implementing some sort of detection system. Not sure how long that will take though considering all the feature requests they must be getting

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 year ago (2 children)

db0 (Mod from my instance) created a tool to scan and remove CSAM related content. Sounded pretty neat.

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

Could you link it? I have plans to host a lemmy instance, it could be helpful.

I'd be surprised if there wasn't already something off the shelf they could use. Yahoo released their porn detector decades ago, and with AI being as prevalent as it is, I'd think that wouldn't be too hard to implement. Maybe difficult to implement well though...

What's stopping us from building another? Why aren't there several across the fediverse? Having one de facto just makes it vulnerable to the whims of trolls or a renegade mod.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 year ago

Under normal circumstances that would make sense, however that is just sidestepping a major problem that needs to resolved. They could just post CSAM to wherever becomes popular.

two batmans kissing

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

I was wondering where that community went.

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

Wait, what happened? Defederation?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Malicious actors spamming the community with actual CSAM.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I had to google CSAM; hope I'm not on a list now
