Motherfuckers created a rule about how pointing out that overpopulation myths are ecofascistic lobbying is actually "bad faith" somehow so now every post, no matter what it is about, full of "this is why billions must die" bullshit.

There's 500k subscribers btw.

"Why are you concerned with the normalization of the notion that some people being alive is just simply over the limits?"

[-] rah@feddit.uk 2 points 1 year ago

normalization

You're talking about Reddit, not the New York Times.

were you surprised to discover that the new york crimes echoes the same ecofascist genocidal sentiments that we see on reddit

they aren't anything new and have been around since at least the green revolution (in their modern iteration)

No idea what you're rambling on about.

[-] Are_Euclidding_Me@hexbear.net 47 points 1 year ago

I gotta ask, are you incapable of reading or are you unwilling to read? Because DivineChaos100 responded to you with two links to NYT articles about this issue, in this comment, which was posted before CarmineCatboy2 asked you to comment on those NYT articles. And yet, you're here acting as though this didn't happen. But I can read and I understand what time stamps are, so I know that you have been shown evidence that the NYT believes similar things to the r/Collapse subreddit before this comment where you pretend such a thing never happened.

So I'll repeat CarmineCatboy2's question to you, and maybe you'll answer it this time: Were you surprised to discover that the new york crimes echoes the same ecofascist genocidal sentiments that we see on reddit?

[-] rah@feddit.uk 2 points 1 year ago

I gotta ask, are you incapable of reading or are you unwilling to read?

You've missed an option here which is the option I noted: I didn't understand CarmineCatboy2's question.

which was posted before CarmineCatboy2 asked you to comment on those NYT articles

CarmineCatboy2 didn't ask me to comment on those NYT articles, they mentioned "new york crimes" which only now that I've read your comment do I realise is a play on the name "New York Times".

you're here acting as though this didn't happen

I'm not acting. I didn't understand what CarmineCatboy2 was going on about and I said as much. If I might be so bold as to offer some unsolicited advice: maybe in future just assume that when someone says they don't understand what another is saying, they're doing so because they don't understand what the other is saying.

Were you surprised to discover that the new york crimes echoes the same ecofascist genocidal sentiments that we see on reddit?

I'll rephrase this question in order to favour clear communication:

Were you surprised to discover that the New York Times echoed the same ecofascist genocidal sentiments that we see on Reddit?

I made no such discovery, I didn't look at the New York Times articles that were linked to. Had I discovered that, I would not be surprised.

[-] CarmineCatboy2@hexbear.net 31 points 1 year ago

I didn't look at the New York Times articles that were linked to.

sounds like you have a tendency to resist leaving your ideological tribal traps

I admit it never even so much as crossed my mind that someone on the internet (and specifically commenting all over this thread) might not understand that the phrase "new york crimes" refers to the NYT. So one point to you I suppose.

This probably also explains why you're confused in the subthread where someone told you this isn't the first time recently you've defended reddit-logo You probably think they're actually talking about the website actually called Stormfront. They're not. They're talking about reddit, which you did, in fact, defend not 20 hours ago.

[-] rah@feddit.uk 2 points 1 year ago

They're talking about reddit, which you did, in fact, defend not 20 hours ago.

I disagree. I wasn't defending Reddit, I was questioning the rationality of a Lemmy poster. There's a difference.

Reddit communities with 500k subscribers, for better or for worse, can influence culture at large. Making a post to begin a discussion on the potential dangers of such a large community's moderation policies is not an unworthy endeavor.

[-] rah@feddit.uk 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Making a post to begin a discussion on the potential dangers of such a large community's moderation policies is not an unworthy endeavor.

This doesn't seem like such a post. Firstly, it doesn't seem to me like beginning a discussion on a Reddit community's moderation policies here has any worth. It might have worth if the discussion was begun in the Reddit community itself but I can't see any worth beginning a discussion here.

Secondly, this post doesn't seem like an effort to begin an earnest discussion about potential dangers of moderation policies at all, it seems more like a mindless "ZOMG1!!!!1 LOOK AT THE FASCISTS ON REDDIT!!! WERE AMAZING AND THEIR STOOPID!!!"

[-] CarmineCatboy2@hexbear.net 53 points 1 year ago

"ZOMG1!!!!1 LOOK AT THE FASCISTS ON REDDIT!!! WERE AMAZING AND THEIR STOOPID!!!"

are you... personally invested in this?

[-] BelieveRevolt@hexbear.net 48 points 1 year ago

lol,this isn't even the first time you've defended reddit-logo on here, shut up nerd

[-] rah@feddit.uk 1 points 1 year ago

this isn't even the first time you've defended reddit-logo on here

Firstly, I'm not defending anyone. Secondly, I've no idea what you're referring to.

[-] BelieveRevolt@hexbear.net 44 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I saw very little misogyny or rape apology. I see lots of hate towards the particular woman who lied but only one or two posts with misogyny out of hundreds and none with rape apology.

Can you provide any links to the "rampant" comments which are misogyny or rape apology? As is, your post seems completely deranged.

You don't remember posting this 19 hours ago, apparently.

[-] rah@feddit.uk 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

LOL of course I remember posting that. There's just no connection between your comment and mine, that I can tell.

[-] radiofreeval@hexbear.net 8 points 1 year ago

"there's no connection between the very related comments of mine"

No investigation, no right to speak, fascist.

[-] DivineChaos100@hexbear.net 34 points 1 year ago

It has been brought up multiple times there but it's banned outright as it's being "bad faith".

[-] rah@feddit.uk 1 points 1 year ago

I'm not suggesting doing that, I'm just contrasting the difference in value of discussions in the different fora.

[-] DivineChaos100@hexbear.net 33 points 1 year ago

Maybe the "value of discussion" you see here is a direct consequence of the fact that normal discussion cannot be had about the topic over there.

[-] rah@feddit.uk 1 points 1 year ago

the "value of discussion" you see here

I don't see any value though, that's the point.
