before you guys upvote him, please read the discussion.

this guy came to my instance, read what I wrote, typed out a report and submitted it; he blames blindness and small text for not knowing which instance he was on, but neither of those issues prevented him from reading my post (it was a post about abuse, in a community I created, on my own instance) and reporting it. That's why I banned him. He's using a disability as an excuse to get away with offensive behavior (ignoring me when I tried to discuss the issue privately first).

Yes, disabled people can behave offensively. Some disabled people can be selfish. Some of them hurt people, then walk away without apologizing, and blame their disability instead of themselves. To me, that's abusive, and I call it out instead of letting people get away with it, because I've suffered enough at the hands of people who make excuses instead of being accountable.

because there's only a few thousand users here.

that's why it isn't commonplace; there's no money in it. slop companies make more money on tiktok, facebook and other popular platforms...

...but Lemmy is not free from abuse of this type. If the fediverse was more popular it would start to see more slop content.

that's my point. it does work here, because the same vulnerabilities exist, but isn't common because it's not as profitable as shitting in tiktok or facebook. :)

The full text of the paper costs $35 to read once.

"Look, I made a really exciting controversial discovery! It's really emotional and intriguing! You're missing out! Only smart rich people can read it! Put your money in the basket please :)" Our education system is dead the the populace is too stupid to care.
