A site without bigots isn’t sterile

If an instance does off because Meta won’t defederates from it, then it probably would have died off anyway.

Because billionaires influence politics… Unfortunately.

You apparently have herpes. Sorry you had to find out here.

They do if they’re collector’s boxes. Usually the same for regular editions.

It would be a shame if subreddits changed their rules to make photos of Tiennamen Square mandatory in all posts.

Defederating helps because it limits their reach to a wider community. They’re currently a small group because Lemmy and Kbin are new. If they’re left unchecked, they will grow.

You are never going to eliminate groups like this, but deplatforming them prevents their ability to radicalize more people.

lol, okay

Banning white supremacy is not the same thing as making an echo chamber.

Support for Trump is inherently racist, homophobic, transphobic, and misogynistic.

I think it’s the sci-fi fantasy of it. Like being able to download knowledge like the matrix.

Elno wants to grift people on the former. Literally everything he does is selling people the knock off wish version of something from a sci-fi movie/book/game.

I mean Reddit isn’t a predominantly right wing platform (yet)

Beehaw has been popular for like a week. How can there be a typical user?

There are tons of magazines getting set up across several instances. We need time to see which ones succeed.

I hope all the subs have a variation on this.

We’re going to build Sentinels and Xavier is going to pay for it!
