So, 3 months in office and we’re already going to waste over $120m for this fucking cunt to play golf on the job and stroke his ego with a military parade? At least they could fire 2,400 people in an unimportant place like the CDC to offset the costs for things that truly make America great. /s

One of my favorite aspects of the new Indiana Jones game is just running around one-punching nazis. It really never gets old.

Seems very short-sighted on their part. They’ve made the penalty for taking out 1 the same as taking out 100. They’ve also highlighted the disparity between punishments for crimes against average people vs the rich and powerful.

Here's the original offending comment that was later restored:

Fuck Radcliffe and all the rest of the un-American fascist bootlickers.

“You can characterize it how you want” Go fuck Musk’s face. Fucking clown.

The cross-sub silencing is crazy too. I got banned from a bunch of tesla subs for participating in r/cyberstuck. On that one, I did message the mods and told them to go fuck themselves for stifling free speech. Someone actually replied back and said, "Freedom of speech, doesn't mean freedom from consequences.", which is an infuriating misuse of that expression in this context. Then I got a 3 day ban.

Sad to see the decline

Things have gotten pretty weird in the last few months. I got a warning and a deleted comment several months ago because there was a debate in some random Colorado sub on what to do about a person living downtown who kept putting a swastika in their apartment window. They lived above a popular local business and it was causing issues. I said something about using a slingshot to solve the problem. I hear you on the time spent on there. After deleting the app from my phone, it really hit home just how much I was compulsively checking it throughout the day.

Ridiculous. Especially when you consider the other content that is perfectly acceptable. Doesn't help that a very small number of mods control the majority of the subs now. I feel you on the hate-posting. I'm inclined to do the same thing because of the one-sided nature of the ban and my need to express my displeasure and sense of injustice.

I noticed a big difference after they cut off the API. I've only been on Lemmy a few days, but I feel the same way about the amount of content. Hopefully more and more people will migrate here as reddit continues their nonsense. It's a shame to see what it has become.

I love this idea. I think I'm going to do that.
