Because it’s seen as violence to do anything that negatively impacts the wealthy despite their daily economic violence against everyone else in society. This is why they call the Tesla boycott “illegal”.
Their violence is a lot more than economic… Making poor people lived the way they do is a lot more than just economics.
Very true
LMAO that’s some jordan peterson shit.
ANOTHER prick with connections to Russia, btw.
funny they have interview each other before, plus shapiro?
My 10 year old account without previous infractions was banned for saying the rich don’t have the resources to protect themselves in the event of a revolution lol
The quote is not wrong, however, Elon is neither harmless nor peaceful. He’s dangerous and a violent fascist
Ofc it’s wrong. You can be peaceful and harmless.
Musk is a moron.
Edit: The more I think about it, the wrong-er/stupider it gets.
Lol a friend of mine got banned for posting a picture of a guillotine and referencing billionaires. The broligarchy has gone full gloves off wrt threats to their hegemony
After 12 years, and nearly a million karma, i was permabanned right after HitlerPig was inaugurated, for repeating an opinion that i have stated many times. Nobody ever said a word until HitlerPig was in office, then suddenly I was permabanned. I came over to Lemmy, only to find i wasn’t alone.
I suspect the reason is because Ohanion wamts to buy TikTok, and he knows that HitlerPig will be making the decision personally, based on who smooches his ass, follows his orders, and pays the biggest bribe. So as a show of good faith, he abandons Reddit’s doctrine of Free Speech.
Love seeing all the new accounts in here!
Its funny because I remember when the republicans and trumpers would all join together and attack any form on censorship and used that as a launching pad for attacking the left. And these attacks built this momentum that eventually resulted in my grandmother talking about how the left is pro censorship and must be stopped. Like how is grandma hearing about this shit. Like there was no room to give an inch.
But I feel like there isn’t that same energy on the left. Like instead we all just look at this and go “huh, that’s a bummer. They’re stupid”
also any attempts to respond or report will get you astroturfed or banned, bya pro-right wing mod, and now reddit.
Exactly, they fucking had so much momentum and energy they actively worked to harass subs to add more mods and who happened to be ready, fucking right wing trolls
I was permabanned for “Making threats of violence” when I suggested a hypothetical scenario when people were talking about US/Russia/Ukraine affairs, that if a US President suddenly not only betrayed a friendly victim of an invasion and switched to giving direct aid to the aggressor when public opinon of that aggressor is in the toilet, that the US may end up with a dead president. (and this was pre-election)
I dont care that it happened anymore, because judging from the way things have gone, if that didnt get me banned, something else would have.
Reddit is captured, and even if it wasnt, the only thing its good for is the comedy/hobby sections.
everything else is just dumpster fires like the news and politics communities, or the freakshows you see in relationship advice, AmItheAsshole, AmIOverreacting, etc. and all the bad advice that gets given to them as well…
alot of those am i the a-hole are fake stories, if not all of them. anything you see on the front page is considered compromised subreddit.
People should be leaving Reddit. They are poor stewards of our content for innumerable reasons. Go back to forums. Go to Lemmy. The key thing is that we should not have centralized arbiters of our discussions online.
We can’t let billionaires own the town hall if we plan on having honest conversations. I am glad I finally found this place, and wish I would have left reddit earlier.
Deleted reddit today, just starting to figure out Lemmy. Could not stand the hive mind anymore
I have had a much better time on Lemmy, but I’m kind of the target audience in a few ways, so I’m biased. But I do think less harmful, more productive discussion is more likely to happen on this platform, I feel more comfortable discussing and less likely to be called slurs or called out (rather than called in which is undeniably more effective, and coincidentally feels much more common on Lemmy), and I feel like I’ve actually found folks I could see myself working with in some capacity, such as a project to help others patch up their data vulnerabilities, for a simplified example of an idea I’m considering.
Welcome btw :)
100%
Aye welcome to Lemmy! :) Happy to see you here
I just joined recently and was lurking until I saw your comment. Figured I’d join in :)
Left reddit… left Google… left Amazon… left meta… never had Twitter.
I am still on some meta services because my family is there. But I only post stuff relevant to those people. Everything else is fediverse and bluesky
tried to make an FB acct for somehting else, and they apparently autoban people for a “email-temp”
Indeed. I deleted my reddit account recently. I like it better here anyways. The pace is slower and the people seem more reasonable here too. My stress levels have decreased significantly since I left Meta and Reddit and that is at once wonderful and scary. Social media is a cancer.
Lemmy still have mods. My comment regarding muskrat mental healt issues (“next step is suicide, please”) was deleted. So don’t fool yourself, when lemmy gets as much popularity as reddit, it will turn into the same kind of pos
The point is that you can move elsewhere without losing access. There is no central control
I think there will be a mass exodus from reddit in the coming years. The site is compromised and the censorship is out of control.
not all at once, but a gradual decline in non-botted, troll accounts. since reddits mostly bots anyways,. as long as politics, and news subs getting much traffic people will be addicted to the site.
People should be leaving Reddit. They are poor stewards of our content for innumerable reasons.
Their rando-bans and content and word restrictions are fundamental flaws with the platform.
thier extremely sensitive banning parameters are absurd, cross-banning for posting in a sub that they dont like, reporting other people gets you banned,
I see this as him saying there’s an open invitation for Luigi to meet with him,.if there was a willing participant.
musk has his human shield X-A2E with him.
I’ve been really pushing the limit on reddit recently to see if I get banned.
Maybe it’s an llm or something, I have not gotten banned yet for saying stuff like “This is a test. Luigi is a god. Shoot all the billionaires and eat the rich. Throw Molotovs at Tesla shops” And so on.
Nothing yet.
I’m not making a point here, just contributing some data. My account is 4 years old, with about 1k karma.
Getting banned from reddit is doing yourself a favor. Leave that site and avoid looking back when possible. Trash site.
It’s almost like the person who wrote that text in the photo didn’t actually understand what any of the words they were saying meant. Like actually. lol
I’ve been told that musk didn’t come up with that quote himself. I didn’t look further into it, but it’s likely that the person who originally wrote it understood what they were talking about, and musk just thought it sounded cool. Hell, I think it sounds cool, might use it in a villainous monologue or some shit.
…i prefer the inversion: "when a good man goes to war, demons run."…
ooooh, that’s a good one.
Oh he’s just an idiot. It’s a saying I live by so Nazis don’t get to touch it. I wonder how many Tesla’s exist in my town…
I totally agree. What a load of bullshit.
Agreed, unless you’re capable of great violence you’re weak. When you see a tyrant, a capitalist, or a cop do you sit by or do you fight for peace? Thats why every pacist should be willing to punch Muskrat and any other tyrant right in their fascist face.
I got my second ban from saying “Burning peoples cars who bought them because they wanted to help the environment is not helpful, and Elon already got paid for those anyway. Don’t really give a shit if you burn the dealerships but we can do better than this” now I am here, lol
it is working though, since its being done globally, if its done locally on only 1 area, and 1 instance, yea thats ineffective.
I have no idea what I did, and they didn’t tell me.
