Arguably the most disliked person on Lemmy because I defend free speech and civil rights, and I push back against Fascists, Nazis, and Lemmy Groupthink.

  • Fair point. From our conversation I assumed you would have seen that. My fault.

    I get why people throw those words around your posts but it’s absolutely not because of your sources.

    Yeah, what is something I have said in any of my posts that makes me a nazi or a fascist.

  • Oh I know the "why." Because they don't like conservative points of view. But I'm not changing.

    Lemmy is open to everyone, just not necessarily "welcome" to everyone.

    But I plan to stay in spite of the drama. So all good.

  • you went from “it’s their community” to “they used a bullshit reason to get rid of me."

    Yes, both are true. It is their community. But they decided to get creative to get rid of me. And all I did was post AP News and Reuters articles. They are allowed to do that, but my point stands that I think the real reason I was banned was because they don't like conservative points of view--regardless of the legitimacy of the source. Which is a form of censorship.

    I'm not banned from everywhere, so no biggie. I still post, so no biggie. But let's not pretend that people don't like me because I post fox news articles. Dude, come on now... You know Lemmy doesn't like conservatives. It's that simple.

    And you also know that Lemmy throws around words like "Nazi" and "fascist" way too much and in fact has started to dilute the power of those words. Which is too bad. Because Lemmy is becoming as hateful as the people they say they fight against.

  • You post bottom-barrel news sources because your high integrity news sources get downvoted?

    Yep! The reality is I get downvoted no matter what. Even non-political science articles.

    Which is fine because I don't take Lemmy seriously. But it does show that Lemmy doesn't are about fact, they care about the emotional hit of downvoting someone they don't personally like.

    I think it's hilarious that they take it so seriously though.

  • I truly wish there were more here with your outlook. Seems like so many here lately have been doomscrolling and just wanna lash out and base their entire identity on politics.

    I still like it here better than Reddit, but ugh, hopefully Lemmy can stop being so hateful. I am on both Reddit and Lemmy, and Reddit doesn't seem to be as personal about it's hate and insults like Lemmy is sometimes.

    But yeah, in the end, we're all gonna make it, brother. Some people just need to go outside more to realize it. lol

  • HA HA HA ha ha, you think your own race has anything to do with your nazi status?

    Nope. But it's doubly offensive when someone calls me a Nazi, when Nazis would actively seek me out and destroy me if they were around. lol

    Nobody called you a nazi for posting AP News.

    I was accused of being a Nazi lots when I was only posting AP News. I was banned from Lemmyworld c/politics because of posting news articles from legit orgs.

    Now, to post in c/politics there, you can only use approved and verified news sources.

    So in order for me to post there, all sources had to be approved. And they were. They don't allow conservative-biased sources. Which is fine, cuz their community so their rules. So I followed their rules.

    But in the end, I ended up being banned. Wanna know why? Because they accused me of being a user called Universal Monk. Who I'd never even heard of before the ban.

    So they legit didn't like the articles I was sending, accused me of being a nazi using AP News "propaganda," but couldn't really ban me for posting news articles from their own list, so they then decided I was someone else and banned me. For being someone I never even heard of.

    Feel free to look up the modlog. It's public. You can see my posts there.

    So yeah, fuck all that noise. Now I'll just post whatever I want. People can choose to read or not, I don't care. :)

    DISCLAIMER: Yeah, I know the .world instance is toxic and sucks, but it is the biggest Lemmy instance, so it has a lot of pull.

  • P. S. I think that there’s a wide continuum of posters. It’s not all one guy with one ideology and 100,000 accounts.

    Of course, I'm just being a bit dramatic to make my point, because you have to admit that Lemmy DOES skew one way heavily. The vast vast majority of Lemmy leans left.

    So far. More and more people are coming on every day. So it may even out.

    But even regarding our growth, I see lots of posts saying that people should be banned if they are conservative.

    And yeah, my crypto worked out awesome last time, and will this time. But I don't invest a lot in either crypto or stocks.

    I only invest what I can afford to lose. Which is why I never panic when market dips happen.

  • You all called me a Nazi. For posting AP News articles! Lemmy has thrown around that word so much, it's losing it meaning. That's how much Lemmy has lost their way lately.

    I'm a native american/black dude with a jewish girlfriend. You all have lost your minds.

  • Yep and AP News and Newsweek. You'll notice that the brietbart, americanthinker, pjmedia, dailymail postings didn't start till after I started getting the hate for AP News and Newsweek.

    I figure if you all are gonna hate no matter what I post, then I can post from wherever I want. :)

  • No, their politics are unwanted. That’s a huge difference, it’s absurd to treat them as equal.

    So because someones politics are different than yours, they shouldn't be treated as equal. Hmmmm..

    Now image a republican saying that about democrats. Imagine your outrage. LMAO

    See, regardless of what Lemmy says, not every republican is a Nazi. This is why you all lost the election. Because you don't account for how many different kinds of republicans there are.

    And you'll lose the next one if ya don't wake up.

  • My use of the “Mulch the rich crowd” as people who will, at least (or perhaps at most) express the desire to grind up billionaires, or maybe millionaires into more useful biomass, such as mulch for their vegetable garden or community allotment.

    Seems to be happening today! How come no celebration? I remember seeing Lemmy posts where people wanted to see wall street burn to the ground! Then it'd get hundreds of upvotes. What happened? Where's that crowd?! lol

    Here's the real reason, IMHO: Because for all of the anti-wall street talk, and the anti-wealth talk, the fact is that Lemmy users on average make more than most americans. So when shit like what's happening happens, it actually affects them. The very fact that there are so many Lemmy's worried about their stocks shows that they are the part of the very crowd the like to see destroyed. It was all for upvotes.

    Reality hits different.

    Now as much as I would love to see this continue to happen. And Lemmy actually be as poor in reality as they pretend to be, I know the market dip won't last. No millionares are gonna lose their status. All the crying Lemmys who are making $100K a year will be just fine, and they'll continue acting like they make $15K a year and then watch their stocks rise in between fake justice warrior postings.

    So yeah, I am fucking loving the news. Loving what is happening. And I think people are getting exactly what they deserve.

    Also, I'm already poor. The wall street news hasn't changed my life at all. No one tiny bit. Except that my little extra fun money is now being used on buying stock and crypto cuz it's all cheap! lmao

  • I doubt you would see that unless you were opposing Democratic values.

    Like what? Because friend, basically I would post an AP News article, and then get called a Nazi and told that I should be banned from the fediverse. My post history is public, see for yourself. lol

  • My day was awesome. Went for a walk this morning before a light drizzle rain. Went to the movies with my gf. Then we fixed dinner and watched another movie. Took her home and now studying some programming stuff.

  • Mine are going awesome. I decided I would retire this year. Did it. I decided I would become super fit. Did it. Decided I'd get lean enough for a six-pack. Did it.

    Decided I would learn programing; doing it. It's been a great year so far!

  • About what tho? The world isn't going to end just because you don't like Trump.

  • Yeah, until the end when some multiverse thing happens and they are brought into the current Marvel uni. lol

    But I love the retrofuture look and feel to this movie. And I loved FF when I was growing up.

  • Most of Lemmy and Reddit. LMAO

  • Great points!
