Lemmy features modlogs, so you can just go check. It's in the sidebar. Instances also have modlogs, so if admins did it, you can check that too.

She's one of the best politicians we have.
So she'll want a strong home stretch blitz. Or were you just trying to shit on dems instead of actually support the best candidate? Sorry, if so.
Fair point. But I do think it is important to protect Lemmy's reputation. It's less about salesmanship, and more about standing up to bad takes and random, misc bullshit.
Agreed. Even in those threads though, in my experience. Even if the op is asking, op is not the only one in the thread. More often than not, people will jump in specifically to badmouth us.
Less about self benefit, more about preservation of data accessibility. Potential self-benefit is a bonus, an extra. Two birds, one stone, nice and efficient. How smart people do things.
No, just pointing out that if the CIA did plenty of dirty work in the past, it would be silly to think that nobody else is doing any today.
I would say "prove it", but that sounds unwise.
Only somewhat populated one I can think of off the top of my head would be using Lemmy from a dedicated Instance like mander or maybe that solarpunk one, and sticking to the local feed.
But memes are tough to escape. The internet almost runs on memes, they're a horrendously efficient form of communication.
I always see a lot of pushback against any alternatives proposed on reddit itself. There's a pretty strong, probably multi-faceted resistance any time anything new is mentioned. So, it's good to keep in mind you will face that, and be prepared with some patience and counter-arguments.
Right, cuz the CIA is the only intelligence agency in the world that fucks around. Obviously.
I don't know, some analogies are better than others. People that just nod along with all of them are just weak-minded yes men. So, I guess it depends on the analogy.
