The mods life is a lonely one. To live amongst the regular users, but to never be one. To never show weakness. To be an avatar of all that is good and pure in a sub.
Just do a link out to a PNG that says "destroy the rich" and then have the text say "you know what to do..."
Then it won't get filtered. If you upload a new graphic every few posts and change the text part it'll be even harder for them to blanket ban your posts.
You make a short phrase where the last word rhymes with the word you want. So for "rich", the phrase could be "bait and switch". Then you drop the end and just use the first part, in this case "rich" becomes "bait". Eat the bait. You could also make one for "eat", say "sugar beet", then eat-->sugar.
Sugar the Bait.
But plenty of other possibilities. For Luigi, it might be a little harder, all I can think of is squeegee and Fiji.
I'm just going to assume every billionaire pulling this shit for trump has an unfathomably disgusting record in the Epstein files. There's no way that every single one of them is deciding to be this overtly fucking pathetic.
Wait? Really? Fuck me. I was supporting the proletariat because I thought we were gonna allow people to eat people. This is not the revolution I signed up for. What am I going to do with all this extra meat?! My freezer is completely full.
You know how it's normally not good for you to eat heavily processed foods? Same goes for rich people. They are so full of chemicals and plastics that you're better off not literally eating them.
Not even needed to cap, you could just make a progressive tax that the wealthier population doesn't feel in order to provide a safety net and social mobility for everyone. That way there can be more rich people using less social services, so individual rich need to pay less while everyone is happy.
Your submission has been removed as it advocates wordplay and the potential use of a thesaurus. Education and signs of intelligence are against the interests of the rich.
While spez is a musk worshipping bootlicker now, back then he and most of the site were categorically against t_d. Your understanding of that time is pretty off.
If Spez wasn't taking the Trump Coin to do ideological warfare on his behalf, he'd either be out on his ass or six feet under like Aaron Swartz. Then you'd have another Millennial corporate shit to hate in his stead.
At some point, you can't hate the player, just the game.
Recently had a friend tell me that he couldn't even read reddit comments anymore because of all the "SJW bs". "I'm as centrist as they come and reddit has just gone way too far left recently". I haven't spoken to him since and was a little surprised by the total lack of awareness, as he's generally a very intelligent & fun person.
There have been problematic comments in the past, but it's not possible to keep the peace with the current political/societal state - the mental / emotional exhaustion is just too much.
My account got banned about 2 weeks ago for three days saying if you were were a republican you voted for a Nazi and fuck Nazi's.
People don't realize it but Reddit is working on suppressing everything as well. This plus the soon to be paywalled information. This shit is on purpose.
Are you telling me the president’s closest advisor doing double nazi salutes to a cheering crowd and his other closest advisor doing a nazi salute to another cheering crowd isn’t just a coincidence? Next thing you’ll tell me is Musk likes the name X because he enjoys drawing the rest of the swastika.
Sucks too. I found some really obscure advice on one thread that really saved me. I had an HTC vive and the sensor boxes weren't working. Someone commented that the Razer Chroma program fucks it up for some reason so I got rid of it and it worked. Lots of useful info, about to be inaccessible to the masses.
I'm pretty sure he likes the X because that's how a ton of illiterate tribal African leaders signed away their land to Europeans, specifically his ancestors.
I got a 7 day ban for mentioning that someone managed to make Musk's AI say Musk and Trump deserve the death penalty in a thread shitting on Musk's AI. I tried to appeal the ban asking how mentioning this was "promoting violence" and I got permabanned with no explanations. Reddit has become a fucking cesspool.
i noticed when i repealed some of my unfairly banned acc, it was just an AI response, most of the time your repeal is automatically denied and never looked at by a actual person.
I posted this comment once before but it fits here so I’ll post it again:
I got [perma] banned for telling a mod “spank spank spank. Thats the sound I make as I spank you. Yes yes yes. Thats the sound you make as I spank you.” And I don’t regret it
since the election, somoene mentioned on another site that they went 3-4 ban purges by FEB of this year already, its much more and aggressive than normal too.
Listen, the masses need to eat and soylent green is a perfectly economically viable solution. Don't try to paint ME as a bad guy just because I'm open to solutions
To be honest, reddit has been awful for a long time. In the past it was just that they would ban you for speaking out against bigots, now it's just being awful for everyone else too.
The rich wannabe oligarchs are taking over every social media platform and news agencies. Twatter, TikFuck, FaceFuck, Instabam, CNN, WaPo and now Reddit. To hell with all of them.
reddit realized r/conservative, conspiracy was bringing alot of traffic to reddit so they dint ban the sub. now its being purposely pushed to the front page.
I was put on a 3 day ban for "hate" because I commented about the ongoing Palestine/Israel conflicts. Basically, I said Hamas committed a horrible act but the IDF/Netanyahu have also done terrible things. To be clear, I said BOTH groups have blood on their hands.
I was banned, but commenters who condemned Hamas/Palestine and called for ALL of them to be killed and then PRAISED the IDF/Netanyahu for killing them, were NOT banned.
Apparently, we are only allowed to speak out against one particular group 🇵🇸 ☪️. The other group 🇮🇱 🕎, is absolutely innocent, perfect, and has never harmed anyone. Allegedly.
i said something similar while gaza attack was by "palestinians" the instigator was bibi, someone ranted and reported me. then many people that got banned from worldnews said they were so many israeli bots there astroturfing everything,
I actually had a nice interaction with a mod on that subreddit just yesterday. A comment of mine was being auto-hidden. He explained why, then offered to help. Not the usual petty tyrant mod I expected.
Before I finally checked out, I got a month-long ban from r/electricvehicles for "That'll do pig, that'll do". Apparently automod isn't a fan of the movie Babe.
i was in the gym sub that randomly popped up, got a ban from it, for responding to someone qouting isaip MAC about his "gains" i was saying something along the lines of if your Juicing all the way. they dont like to hear the dirty word that they are using PEDS.
They’re going to need crazy euphemisms, like on TikTok with unalived and things like that.
I like the sound of “I hope X has a great day.”
It’s hard to see how they can ban that. I hope the people fighting to keep the oligarchy going have a great day, and I hope the spineless Reddit executives who made this decision have a great day.
Advocate for antivax bullshit that kills people? Sure! Encourage politicians to stop live-saving cancer research, gut the VA, and reduce safety standards that will have more people suffering? Cool beans!
Oh, you don't like that and want to voice your opinion? GFY
Your submission was removed as it advocates violence against either a specific person or a group of people. This rule includes thinly-veiled threats, or slogans such as "Eat the Rich". This is against Lemmy’s terms of service. (/s)
I got warned on Reddit for saying someone deserved a dick punch for making his friend choke on a ping pong ball. Is it time for Reddit to go the way of Digg yet? What's Digg you say? Exactly.
If you thought Reddit was anything but on the side of Elon, Thiel, and the Nazi plutocrats, you haven’t been paying attention. And it will get worse and worse as time goes on.
They’re trying to control the conversation to the point that the Overton Window embraces open fascism, and it’s working.
Take this as a very good sign. They are afraid of implications of spreading this discourse. Go forth widely and proclaim it: “eat the rich”.
But in all seriousness let’s not loose the momentum. Online or offline we need to continue to push this narrative against capital, corruption, and genocide.
I think that depends largely on somebody's "join" date. If they're under 6 months old, they probably got banned/censored from Reddit. If they joined in the last 6-12 months, it's probably because of Reddit's AI policies. If they joined 12-18 months ago, it was probably due to the API changes shutting down third-party apps. If they're older than that, then they're probably just tankies.
i joined lemmy today because i deleted reddit during the API purge and just replaced it with RSS feeds of news orgs before finally digging in to trying this out. and this was literally one of the first comments i saw. incredibly ironic and very hilarious
I get your point but I left reddit & joined the lemmyverse just a week ago, and did not get banned/censored.
I just felt that a ton of small niggles both technical and content-/moderation-wise had accumulated towards a tipping point.
I have used old.reddit for the longest time and there's always been some glitches (...). There seem to be delays, and they're getting longer. Whether this is just old.reddit or in general, I do not care.
There are other indicators that reddit isn't interested in keeping old.reddit working. It's just a question of time.
Then there's bots, including wetware bots. Whether they're just re-posting to farm karma or actively flooding certain topics with vile opinion or - after a noticeable delay that has nothing to do with timezones - tip the up/downvote balance in their favor: they are here, and it's not getting better.
I profess in the sincerity of my heart, that I have not the least personal interest in endeavouring to promote this necessary work, having no other motive than the publick good of my country, by advancing our trade, providing for infants, relieving the poor, and giving some pleasure to the rich. I have no children, by which I can propose to get a single penny; the youngest being nine years old, and my wife past child-bearing.
now it's just molesting the corpse. there are extra holes, we don't know what it made them with and we don't want to. anyone nearby can smell it. the body isn't super recognizable, and reality is fighting off raccoons, vultures, etc. for it's claim.
soon the splinters of bone will be ground down and made into a concrete fleshlight. reality will keep fucking it until heat death, or we do something about the situation.
half of its bot comments, its already half dead since for a few years already(iy was a post on reddit 1-2 years ago). im hazarding alot of the bots are mostly from russia, followed usa own troll farms, and then israel. reddit decided to only go after the OF and people who promotes thier own businesses mostly.
kinda obvious if alot of posts were being found as bots too.
Same rule would quite honestly improve Lemmy quite a bit.
Not because of political reasons, but because it gets annoying opening any news post, expecting interesting discussion, and getting a bunch of versions of "eAt tHe rIcH" and guillotine comments instead.
it is a slogan calling for an eradication of the extremely influential and powerful, to redistribute their wealth and return it to those whom it was stolen from.
Why would I say otherwise to justify? And regarding the softening, that's no problem some meat tenderizer won't solve, It's not that you have to be rich, you know. Handing over the loot is not too much to ask, seriously. If you can't find the irony in there, you might want to watch the same titled movie from the 1980s. I doubt you'll like it.
If we let the rich continue as they have been doing, then we’ll be forced to either all starve to death or sustain ourselves on the only meat available.
The comments in this thread remind me of something, I forget the original medium, but it was about fairy tales.
Paraphrasing, it spoke about how people passed along fairy tales, not because of our belief in dragons existing, but to reassure us that dragons can be defeated.
Also I recommend everyone watch, or rewatch, V for Vendetta. Many may suggest reading it, which is absolutely as valid. However, as a fan of movies, Hugo Weaving's performance is in a league of it's own.
Consume the accumulated wealth, power, and privilege of the affluent elite in an act of radical socioeconomic retribution driven by the pursuit of equity and justice for the disenfranchised masses
So you advocated for violence against a specific group of people and got banned for advocating for violence against a specific group of people? How unexpected…
As far as i know, there used to be a rule against that that was applied to people praising luigi, but not to people who said to kill all billionaires. I think it got removed or replaced now since i couldnt find it.
