Reddit's pathetic attempt to quash dissent in c/reddit

[–] S0berage 40 points 1 year ago

Fucking eh. So good to see some honest reddit mods keeping the admins honest. The reddit wide bans for frivolous reasons would be a good improvement too. They went ban-happy for a while there

Analysis of what, be specific. Money lenders? No, defence contracts that US and Israel both want to go off without a hitch and both economic countries rely on. FACT. Not facile shit. Grow up and stop acting so pretentious. What you you mean by the below, not familiar with this reference to 'day'?:

There are lots of contentious things you can day about it

To elaborate," The U.S.-Israeli bilateral economic and commercial relationship is strong, anchored by two-way trade in goods and services that reached USD 45.1 billion in 2021, according to the U.S. Bureau of Economic Analysis, and extensive commercial ties, particularly in high-tech and R&D. The total stock of Israeli foreign direct investment (FDI) in the United States was USD 40.4 billion in 2020. Since the signing of the U.S.-Israel Free Trade Agreement in 1985, the Israeli economy has undergone a dramatic transformation, moving from a protected, low-end manufacturing and agriculture-led economy to one that is diverse, mostly open, and led by a cutting-edge high-tech sector.

The Israeli government generally continues to take slow, deliberate actions to remove trade barriers and encourage capital investment, including foreign investment. The continued existence of trade barriers and monopolies, however, have contributed significantly to the high cost of living and the lack of competition in key sectors. The Israeli government maintains some protective trade policies."

For Canada:

"Since the original CIFTA entered into force in 1997, two-way merchandise trade has more than tripled, totalling more than $1.6 billion in 2020. Canadian direct investment in Israel reached $515 million and Israeli direct investment in Canada reached $617 million in 2020.

A key element of the commercial relationship is collaboration in science, technology and innovation (STI). Bilateral STI relations are strong, developed through more than 20 years of close collaboration. The Government of Canada has partnered with Israel to support joint research, development and commercialization projects. The governments of Ontario and Quebec have also established programs to support companies and researchers pursuing partnerships with Israel."

The whole platform is just Twitter, which I hated and I hated how it's crossed over with Lemmy. It's as annoying as the pylink bots on multiple servers for the same channel on IRC. I just don't get the constant joining and merging. It's a ploy for the data mining psyop bullshit.

I'm too lazy to make my own mastodon or Lemmy server. I'll make my own irc server if anything, that I know very well. Inspircd or equivalent is fine. IRCv3 isn't mature yet to deploy but http://ergo.chat is fully IRCv3 compliant.

I don't think this post is anti semitic or promoting a hateful ideology, it is me expressing a known fact that Israel and its lobby groups heavily lobbying the US. Simple as that.

My account was just suspended, I highly recommend anyone who has this viewpoint to simply not express it here. The fediverse and Mastodon and Lemmy are all a sham.

Really disappointed to be honest. I was hoping I could post my opinion and not have the left wing brigade show up to censor me or "educate" me. Fuck censorship and fuck Israel.

UPDATED: net::ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED when I try to appeal on mstdn.ca....lol talk about spiteful. Must be a Montreal server. Big Jewish population in Montreal. Makes sense....added their API to my blokada Blocklist.

Welcome all,

I'm opening up the podium as there is a result of the API changes from Reddit. I would not like this community to be run like the equivalent on reddit, but I would like to open up the discussions on how to go forward.

What did you like about reddit's communities? What did you hate about reddit's communities?

Welcome all,

I started this as a response to the API changes on reddit, and I would like a complete and total deviance from the way the Reddit community was managed.

I'm opening up the podium for ideas and suggestions for rules before we endeavor forward.

What did you like about the old community? What did you hate about the old community?

Can we start this community off better than it did on Reddit and NOT post the same tracker sign ups constantly and resort to fanboyism defensive posting? If someone doesn't like a tracker, let them say their piece and let them have their own opinion...

I was VERY irritated with how often reddit mods were teaming up with tracker pumpers like with some trackers who will remain nameless.

Respect freedom of speech. Respect constructive criticism.

Am I the only one disappointed with Diablo IV? (self.diablo4)

Don't get me wrong, I want to give this game a chance, but it seems like an exact copy of Diablo 3.

I gave this game a chance as an alpha/beta player, and immediately uninstalled it. It was beyond a disappointment. It was an embarrassing sham like Diablo 3.

One of my biggest sticking points was the constant adversion to allowing eight players per game, instead of the four currently, and the tech tree is literally an exact copy from path of exile. I don't understand why they keep deviating from a game, Diablo 2, that is the golden standard.

Why do they keep playing with the tech tree? Why do they keep playing with the stats tree? It's almost like they don't want to acknowledge Blizzard North's success? Why kill off Diablo, Mephisto and Baal? They're demons, and the soul stone should've been recovered to free them and allow another good series instead of this Inarius / Lilith soireé.

What am I missing?
