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-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--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. --

Edit: I'll also add this here from a deeper comment because many aren't getting it.
We can help neurodivergent comrades with tone indicators.
And, the DPRK jokes are beating a starving horse. Other instances already think everyone here is only a pseudoleftist cult follower.
Either some finesse or subtleties to joke variety or then some indicators on blatant wacky shit posting could be helpful for people.
No sarcasm here, friend
is there a setting that removes the libs? FUCK they're annoying
anyone with an @ in their name is most like to be a shithead
Not our lemmygrad comrades, though
they cool, every other instance is questionable at best lately.
shithead reporting for duty o7
hey now, i left some wiggle room in there lol
You're in the wrong place, bucko.
I'm the spectre which haunts lemmy, never in a wrong place
Edit: another joke idea: is there going to be a wall to keep the "illegals" like me out?
(It's a joke making fun of right-wingers and how federation works)
I'm sure the material needs work
Joking about building a wall to keep “illegals” out isn’t funny.
Maybe it would fly on a conservative forum.
No one is illegal.
That is my comment's point. No one is illegal so I highlighted that with the quotes because the original context was keeping people out, as in a wall.
It would not fly on a conservative forum because it makes fun of them.
Fuck off. You're trying to say that because we don't want actual chuds on our silly internet forum (and many of us are fed up with libs too) that we're exactly like right-wingers who are currently putting fucking sawblades in rivers so immigrants drown. Do you see how these two things are rather different? It's not a funny joke and never would be. There's zero potential here and you're an asshole.
If you disagree with "there are no illegals" then I'm sorry to say I'm not the asshole here
You agree with me with a shitload of assholery.
Jesse wtf
This is downright incoherent. Please write clearer comments on the internet
Tone indicators are not "reddit," they help neurodivergent people
Maybe we should begin prepending "Unironic," to the meme.
I don't like the implication anyone here could say it ironically
When talking to libs I guess.
Ackshually the le redditor moment is the the_donaldification of this instance. Some day the critical mass won't get the parody anymore and it will be just a gargle of The One Joke attackhelicopterlibrulsnowflake changed to chinalibrulstalin
Did narwhal bacon midnight stay funny? Not really
Question yourself, why do you use donaldification, do you mean the sub? If so do you think the social interactions here are like there? Beating down against marginalized people in the imperial core with heavy slurs and racism which promote violence in the authoritarian core?
If you want to refer to the way communication is done, in a not serious tone, with elements that actually connect to people (like the old chapo subreddit did), then you have to ask yourself why you are against an effective presence of the working class on the net.
If you are just finding the humor edgy then that is another matter, but the first two - which you opened up due to your choice of words - make me think that there is more to it. I feel as if there is a moral component you value highly. Is that so?
Remember how t_d was a tongue in cheek in-joke in the beginning until it grew and actually drew in users that actually were all in with the cult without a hint of self awareness and became what you described?
That path is too easy to accidentally replicate and IT will be a negative effect for the working class on the net. Regular prole scrollers won't get "stalin is good because he's handsome" even though we might have a taste for edgier humor
Think critical, friend
Will get it, since we are having enough critical points and mega threads as well as theory discussions.
Yeah I differ in that estimate. A variety of places for the working class will be more effective than small closed groups of critical school theory nerds (which had like 90 years to come up with functional organizing).
I'm not sure if scrollers stick to find out about if there's honesty in the megathreads.
Variety is definitely good. Maybe I've just seen too many in-jokes-as-a-glue things convert to something else around the internet as media literacy is falling. Shrug.
Love the optimism tho! Peace out
