Content should be articles, video essays, podcasts about topics relevant to the forum. No memes, single images or tweets/toots/... please!

Community rules:

Be respectful and civil with each other. Don't be a jerk. There is a real human being on the other side of your screen. See also the Blahaj.Zone Community Rules

No bigotry of any kind allowed. Making racist, sexist, trans-/homo-/queerphobic, otherwise demeaning and hateful comments is not ok. Disabilities and mental illnesses are not to be used as insults and should not be part of your comment unless speaking of your own or absolutely relevant.

No gatekeeping and being rude to people who don't agree with you. Leave “gamer” stereotypes out of your comment (e.g. sexless, neck bearded, teenaged, basement-dwelling, etc). Don't compare people to animals, or otherwise deny their humanity. Even if you think someone is the worst human on the planet, do not wish death or harm upon them.

No "justice porn". Posts regarding legal action and similar is allowed, but celebrating someone being harmed is not.

Contrarianism for its own sake is unnecessary and not welcome.

No planning operations, no brigading, no doxxing or similar activities allowed.

Absolutely no defense of GamerGate and other right-wing harassment campaigns, no TERFs and transphobia, racism, dismissing of war crimes and praise of fascists. This includes “JAQing off”, intentionally asking leading questions while pretending to be a neutral party. This also applies to other forms of authoritarianism and authoritarian or criminal actions by liberal or leftist governments.

NSFW threads, such as ones discussing erotic art, pornography and sex work, must be tagged as such.

Moderators can take action even if none of the rules above are broken.

Glad I can say "rest in piss Charlie" as much as I want on here. Bluesky sounds exactly as braindead as Xitter, except less obstinately so.

[–] wintervoid@lemmy.blahaj.zone 0 points 8 months ago (2 children)

Yeah. If you want an alternative I'd recommend mastodon because from what I've seen at least it's not as brain dead

Fascists can set up an instance, sure. The difference is that that's one instance among many. The worst fediverse instances aren't federated with anybody because the entire instance has been blocked by virtually every other instance.

IMO that's much better than even the best monolithic social media site. A monolithic site has to have a set of rules that applies for everyone. You can add your own additional blocks, but you can't unblock things that the monolithic site has decided should be blocked.

How many fascist threadiverse instances are there?

[–] oftheair@lemmy.blahaj.zone 0 points 8 months ago (2 children)

Depends on if you count tankies as fascist or not.

[–] AntiBullyRanger@ani.social 0 points 8 months ago

I count those as Maoists, which if we go by evidence, the ballpark isn't too far off.

No clue, the instances I use block a lot of them so I never really see their shit.

[–] hector@lemmy.today 0 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Those monolith sites have government hooks in them to manipulate those rules so they are not applied equally.

It was bad before 2020, now it is a joke. They find other things to violate you on for israel comments for instance. Things not against the rules or a real stretch to claim so.

[–] merc@sh.itjust.works 0 points 8 months ago (2 children)

"Government hooks"? Please.

This is just trying to play nice with investors and/or advertisers.

[–] hector@lemmy.today 0 points 8 months ago (1 children)

I said government for brevity, the super rich and corporations control the government and they both have their hooks in. The lawmakers have been threatening to jam them up in multiple ways if they do not cave to pressure which they have. Such as agency sending lists of accounts to ban for unrelated reasons. Or allowing some allies of the politicians too get a pass on moderation while taking a hard line against other voices online. Or allowing connected influence operations free reign.

[–] merc@sh.itjust.works 0 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Whether it's for brevity or directly, you're wrong.

[–] hector@lemmy.today 0 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Hardly, government and powerful industries have their hooks in social media.

You disagree you do not provide a single counter argument as to why it's wrong, which it obviously is not.

[–] merc@sh.itjust.works 0 points 8 months ago (1 children)

You're the one making an assertion, you prove it's true.

By that logic every website on the Internet is fascist because someone set up a website about fascism somewhere.

Why are we still talking about this, when Donnie Drumpf is still raping kids in ICE?
Is Venture Capitalist Sky going to usher Jesus Christ or som?

[–] Korhaka@sopuli.xyz 0 points 8 months ago (1 children)

I do wish Kirk would fuck off now. Fed up of hearing about the twat

[–] AntiBullyRanger@ani.social 0 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Then get your arms, and start dismantling mainstream media corporations. Nepal & Brazil showing 🇺🇲 who are the bosses.

[–] Korhaka@sopuli.xyz 0 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Why do you think I am on lemmy instead?

[–] AntiBullyRanger@ani.social 0 points 8 months ago

Fester in piss.

No rest, no peace for fascists. Even in death

Rot in a hole in the ground that I pissed in.

Pee pee poo poo peeper poop pee

[–] AlecSadler@lemmy.blahaj.zone 0 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Well, I was on the fence before but I guess I'm leaving Bluesky too.

[–] jaybone@lemmy.zip 0 points 8 months ago (1 children)

It was only a matter of time for bluesky to show their true colors. I thought it would be later, rather than sooner. Quite the little hill for them to die on.

[–] dejected_warp_core@lemmy.world 0 points 8 months ago

I was wondering if Bluesky's corporate ownership was going to be a problem eventually.

[–] monkeyslikebananas2@lemmy.world 0 points 8 months ago

Rot in Piss ok then?

[–] BastingChemina@slrpnk.net 0 points 8 months ago

An HD version of a meme of a pikachu (a yellow electric mouse looking creature with red cheeks) from pokémon looking shocked whilst a trainer is behind them in brown pants.

Is “Image description:” the correct way to start alt text here? I’ve been unclear on the right or preferred way to do this.

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 0 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

if you got an alt text, you're doing it right. just don't put an alternate joke in the hovertext it's confusing for screen readers

[–] BigBenis@lemmy.world 0 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Why do these corporate yahoos suddenly care so much about what people are saying on the internet? Is it because they could see themselves in... Ohhh

[–] Korhaka@sopuli.xyz 0 points 8 months ago

They don't want people to realise that a large chunk of society would be happy to see them dead. Whose side are you on?

[–] recursive_recursion@piefed.ca 0 points 8 months ago

Rest in piss Charlie Kirk

[–] BlameTheAntifa@lemmy.world 0 points 8 months ago

And my bluesky accounts are now deleted.

Rest in piss, Bluesky.

[–] pjwestin@lemmy.world 0 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Meanwhile, this guy openly admitted to joining Bluesky explicitly to screenshot people and report them to Laura Loomer, and was throwing out slurs in the comments to provoke them, but it took at least three reports and over 24 hours for the moderation team to do anything about it.

(Also, warning, slurs, obviously)

Can we say it here? Rest in piss, you won't be missed.

Hmmm, that felt cathartic
