We might need more mods for communities like /c/latestagecapitalism
With the Reddit exodus, there's been a significant increase in the number of bad-faith liberals commenting on communities like LSC. I don't personally think we should ban liberals from all communities if they're being respectful, but immediate hostility breaks the instance's third rule and seeing it everywhere might make some users uncomfortable. In particular, the bigger communities that only have admins as mods (I get the feeling that they have a lot to deal with already) or have inactive mods might need some help
I haven't spoken to any admins about this so ignore this if it's already being dealt with
It has limits though, there was a post recently where the libs hit critical mass and were replying to each other to "ignore the tankies"
once they can establish an echo chamber, any education or "dunking on" is useless as they'll back each other up. Just look at worldnews, it's a cesspit right now. 100% pure lib.
I think this is happening increasingly. Some new users don't seem to understand federation. They think it's just an advert-free Reddit and wander anywhere they like thinking it's the same all over. They should be wandering, like, but they'll have to get used to the fact that instances as well as communities have rules.
For example, someone made a comment on an article posted in [email protected]. Now, I'm no expert, hence being on a language learning community, but it seems like liberal anti-communism to me. I think liberals see the content of our communities and come in thinking they can bring their liberalism to bear on the subject, without realising that all content here comes under the auspices of Marxism.
Well our LSC community even have the same pfp (edit, seems we don't, but i remember it it was something like that when i was there last time) as the reddit LSC sub so i guess they thought it's one of theirs.
Lol I'm one of y'all and still thought that post was on lemmy.ml for some reason. But that was probably due to the traffic it was getting. Maybe the libs were coming in from filtering by all instead of local?
