Drama in the Fediverse
Welcome to the Lemmy Drama community!
This is a place to share and enjoy drama across the fediverse. Grab your popcorn, and dive in!
Rules:
1. Don't bring your own drama.
If you are a part of the drama, don't post it here. We're here to enjoy drama, not see it brought to this community.
2. Be civil.
No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. No ongoing drama.
if there’s been a comment in the past 3 days, wait until it’s settled down.
5. No interacting with the drama you find here.
That means no upvotes, no downvotes, and no commenting in the original thread.
6. Keep the drama focused on Lemmy and/or the fediverse only.
If it’s Kbin or Mastodon drama, it must be a quality effort post.
7. Don’t piss on the popcorn.
Inciting brigades is an automatic ban.
8. Mod Perogative
We reserve the right to enforce the rules however we like.
Yeah, probably 80% of their posts are good information that should be spread. But the posts and constant comments about how everyone who disputes anything they say "loves genocide" or "supports genocide" show that they aren't really in touch with reality, and their frequent calls to not vote for democrats, blind to how much worse trump was/would be, makes me want them gone from my feed.
They are doing damage. Literally acting against Palestine's interest, convinced that they are helping (I assume they really believe so anyhow) and should continue being terminally online, posting and commenting every waking hour of every day. If nothing else this dude has a deep rooted obsession, even if they weren't accusing 90% of the world of "loving genocide".
I 100% agree and have told them as much to their face several times. They're doing more harm than good. Unfortunately that just gets them screaming more, often. And this one may be the worst. But they're not alone by a long shot.
The worst of it is whether their intentions are good or bad. They are using this presidential election cycle and the candidates as a shooting range for their grievances. Rather than dealing with the congress. And getting Congress people elected that would actually make things better. My State lost a pro Palestine Congress person recently. New York did as well. And part of it is a lot of the propaganda but also the tone around the people pushing back against the propaganda. When you lash out at allies or potential allies when they give you slight pushback. You're definitely doing it wrong.
