This is awesome! thank you!

Yes, I would like to get rid of votes. Because people weaponize them, and people like you take advantage of them. If you don't agree with a community, just block it and move on. You don't need to go in and just do a long stream of downvoting.

In a perfect world, voting works. But lemmy seems to draw a crowd that seems to harbor more obsessive types who can't let something go.

Brah, you don't even like the community you're mad about! lol But you seem mad that now you aren't allowed to downvote there anymore.

The mod even gave you a chance to be unbanned, and you decided not to take him up on it. You brought it here to see opinions, and most of the opinions are that you are in the wrong. It is what it is.

i look forward to the lemmy 1.0 feature “private communities” where only subscribers see posts.

Any idea when this feature comes out?

You joke, but I see soooo many on Lemmy like that now! lol

But isn't that bad faith? If they are going someplace safe to talk amongst themselves and not posting their stuff in other places, then let them be. It's already documented because they are on Lemmy.

hahaha, that's sweet! Thanks for that!

Take the hint that your sleazy incel behavior isn’t welcome here

Over 120 upvotes for my post as of now. So I guess I'm not that unwelcomed here. It almost seems as if I am welcomed here. Hmmmm....

Relax, it was just an over-the-top, throw-away line in a fun article. Besides, it can't be true, everyone on Lemmy knows I could never have a best friend!

Thanks, friend!

Thank you!

Ahhh, ok. I haven't heard of that here in US yet, but I'm sure it's probably already happening here.

YDI. Like others have said, we're against copyright here.

I've always behaved. My entire post history is public. Most of the hate toward me started before the election, when I refused to vote for Biden, Harris, or Trump. I voted Socialist, and back then, that pissed off people. A lot. Feel free to look at articles on Lemmy in the months before the election. Many people, not just me, but many who announced they were going to vote third party, were called traitors.

Times have changed. Voting Socialist isn’t seen as nearly as "evil" as it was last year.

Probably because people finally realised it was non-voters, not third-party voters, who cost the election. Even if every third-party voter had backed Harris, she still would have lost.

I voted Socialist, proudly. I got banned and called a troll for it. Some people still won't let it go. Regardless of what I post. And it's very possible I'll even get banned in this community for my socialist leanings.

But back to the topic of the article: I do believe this news. It won't happen in near future, but I 100 percent believe that China is indeed planning to build on the moon. I think they'll be able to do it. And the people laughing, well they haven't been paying attention.
