Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

MODERATORS
I mean, business as usual can only continue when that happens up to a certain point. Once you reach a critical mass of morons, the whole thing grinds to a halt.
Eventually, yes. The problem is that it rarely happens the moment the grifter that broke the camel’s back get hired. It’s more like 6, 12, 18 months down the line when some critical function that had held together with duct tape and promises suddenly goes belly up, and then it’s a cascade of “to fix X, we need to fix Y first, and to fix Y we need to fix Z first, and we fired the last people who know how Y and Z actually work a year ago.”
Right. It’s a cascade that gets tipped off with some random thing going wrong or new challenge. But it’s inevitable eventually. In a way we’re extremely lucky that this round of fascists haven’t understood that you need institutions to oppress people
The Burger Reich prefers a franchised model of fascism to a corporate-run one.
