The irony
  • small note: my comment was removed by admins as an automated thing, no idea if I was report-bombed or not. I also received a warning.

    I sent a plea and it was restored, and the warning removed.

    The irony
  • Honestly I have the feeling there are so many untold stories about subreddit moderators... It's really opaque. If you get banned etc nobody can really see it because it's hidden, so you never have any possibility to see if a ban is justified or not, it's like a secret court.

    I wish the moderation history, like bans, comment removals etc were public. It would be hilarious.

    And reddit admins explicitly tell moderators they cannot allow criticism of other subreddit moderators, which reinforce this bubble problem. If you get banned in one sub, you LITERALLY cannot talk about it on reddit, it's really insane, it's really shady, that stuff only happens in dictatorships.

  • I don't know what the users said, maybe they deserved to be removed, but it's still ironic

    Has Reddit’s traffic really quadrupled in 6 months?
  • I cannot wait for reddit going public, it's going to generate so much drama, that's going to be soooo good.

    Lemmy instances brace yourself

    What's your favorite music player on Linux?
  • Foobar2000 has been here for YEAAAARS, and I don't think there is a good enough equivalent for linux, and by that I mean playlist tabs, global shortcuts, etc

  • I got tears from that song

    My sister can’t afford a house

    And she thinks it’s her fault

    She says if she worked harder

    She’d have money in the vault

    And my mother needs a surgery

    Her hand’s always in pain

    But she fell ill last April

    And used up all her sick days

    [Verse 2]

    They say, the homeless need to disappear

    Extract them like a tumor

    A stain on our society

    They’re all broken consumers

    Don’t try to put the blame on us

    They ruined their own lives

    It’s not our fault they got hooked

    On drugs that we prescribed

    [Chorus]

    Em Stars for the silver spoons

    Em Stripes for the poor

    Em Stars for the nightly news and

    Em Stripes if you oppose the war

    Stars if you steal the land

    Stripes if you take a stand

    Stars if you march in time

    Stripes if you don’t fall in line

    [Verse 3]

    We send our babies off to school

    Our children are the future

    Then teach them how to hide

    Beneath their desks for active shooters

    Oh we could make a difference

    If we weren’t so fucking tired

    But who’s got time to fight

    When you’re just trying to survive

    [Chorus]

    Em Stars for the silver spoons

    Em Stripes for the poor

    Em Stars for the nightly news and

    Em Stripes if you oppose the war

    Stars if you steal the land

    Stripes if you take a stand

    Stars if you march in time

    Stripes if you don’t fall in line

    [Bridge]

    They want a standing ovation

    For the hero nation but

    Why should we when

    The man on the corner

    Begging for a quarter

    Lost his legs on your orders

    [Chorus]

    Em Stars for the silver spoons

    Em Stripes for the poor

    Em Stars for the nightly news and

    Em Stripes if you oppose the war

    Stars if you steal the land

    Stripes if you take a stand

    Stars if you march in time

    Stripes if you don’t fall in line

    Don't fall in line

    Israel drove suitcases stuffed with cash into Gaza to keep Hamas in power
  • who cares, that's too late now

    now Hamas will get deleted off the solar system

    Netanyahu might be replaced and even if a progressive PM is in power, it's not like Israel will let terrorists occupy gaza again, it's going to take years before gaza becomes safe again, it's going to be occupied by Israel first, and maybe the UN later.

    there's just no way Israel will be fine with terrorists after october 7.

    TEMOIGNAGES. "Je ne peux pas leur pardonner l'avis qu'ils ont" : en France, familles et amis déchirés par l'importation du conflit entre le Hamas et Israël
  • Ces coupures c'est pour empêcher le Hamas d'en profiter, meme aujourd'hui le Hamas s'empare de l'aide humanitaire, les palestiniens l'ont beaucoup dit.

    https://edition.cnn.com/2023/11/07/opinions/israel-hamas-gaza-not-war-crimes-spencer/index.html

    https://www.cfr.org/podcasts/laws-war-matthew-waxman

    Israel ne fait rien de particulièrement illégal, c'est une guerre, et la guerre c'est moche. Israel cibles le Hamas, les morts civils sont des collatéraux, Israel ne cherche pas à tuer des civils, et le Hamas fait tout pour augmenter les victimes collatérales et pour dissuader Israel d'attaquer.

    Pour l'instant, 3 civils morts pour 1 militant du hamas, c'est beaucoup mieux qu'en Irak en 2003, et c'est pas considéré comme un mauvais ratio, meme si ca pourrait être mieux.

    Il y a plein d'émissions sur france culture.

    Parler de génocide de la part d'une armée régulière comme celle d'israel qui a signé la convention de genève, sans mettre en relief les intentions génocidaires du Hamas qui est une milice armée qui cible ouvertement les civils Israeliens et qui se positionne parmi les civils palestiniens, c'est pas très neutre.

    Après on sera pas d'accord c'est pas grave.

  • je pense sincèrement que le traitement médiatique a une grande part de responsabilité dans tout ça

    oui, ton commentaire en est un bel exemple, appeler ca un génocide, ca montre que tu répètes des échos sans trop chercher

    Reactionaries have used the same talking points to shun progress throughout history.
  • im a hardcore leftist but you cannot leave a large barbaric terrorist group nearby your border

    until hamas stop fighting from civilian areas civilians will get killed, because that's what hamas wants

    have a good day
