c/ is referring to the link

look at the link it shows c/ after your instance's url

For example: lemmy.dbzer0.com/c/piracy

[–] TriflingToad 4 points 1 day ago

ohh I see. I use Voyager (mobile Lemmy app) so I don't see the link, many thanks :)

I would assume they meant they posted on reddit initially - which could also help explain why it was removed 🙃

[–] [email protected] 42 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (5 children)

Nah look at the image, its @lemmy.world

Theres a trash can icon near it, meaning its deleted.

Ah you're right sorry force of habit

That community has no idea what it wants to be. Mostly it just drives people away.

[–] [email protected] 63 points 3 days ago (6 children)

LOTR memes would understand.

“related to a thing that happened in the news and riffing off the least political aspect of that” isn’t going to read as political to 100% of people. im sorry you felt slighted here but i do totally see the mod’s angle.

I don't know what forn of neurodivergent this indicates but it's something.

Is just pure gullibility its own diagnosis? Maybe it should be.

yep. ton of hyperactive modding on .world

the silver lining is showing everyone what a shit show that server can be, and forcing content to other instances

[–] [email protected] 27 points 3 days ago (4 children)

The political memes community in particular has silly moderation. My post criticizing the billions in dollars being sent in support of genocide got deleted and when I asked for clarification, I got this explanation (and I quote):

You’re blatant accusing political partition being pro genocide.

This is an opinion.

But I know that no one is PRO genocide. Therefore stating it as such is misinformation. It was removed for this reason alone.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 3 days ago

I know that no one is PRO genocide.

... I don't know, I think the people committing genocide might be a bit pro genocide... 🤔

[–] [email protected] 13 points 3 days ago

Feel free to post this on [email protected]

But I know that no one is PRO genocide.

I mean I understand wanting to see the world that way but whole entire societies of people can become genocidal. That is precisely what causes the atrocity of genocides like the palestinian genocide in gaza to grow out of control.

Once the centrists in a society accept the rightwing framing of the ideology of genocide they will treat it as the status quo and resist anyone who threatens it. This is what is so fucking terrifying about blind centrism, the substance doesn't matter at all to the ideology, just tracking the most commonly accepted "facts" which inveitably ends up in centrists bandwagoning behind an authoritarian.

This is the stage of fascism Israel is deep into and the US is not far behind in and it quickly obliterates in you any doubt that people actually can be pro-genocide.

We all have the potential to be, it is our choices and our empathy that give us agency to resist becoming so.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 days ago

agreed, politicalmemes is a zionist hellscape. I'm sure they're trying to take this place over like they took over reddit.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 days ago

They got it, they're just playing dumb because this is what they want.

If you're wrong, would you be politically incorrect?

[–] [email protected] 13 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Maybe. But not with Bill Maher, okay?

Gandalf did not celebrate Saruman’s death. He still proceeded to depose him, but not in a spirit of celebration.

Many others celebrated though, especially at Sauron's.

"Murder your enemies" can be a political philosophy. Just not a legal one.
