Its not a "r/" on lemmy, its a "c/"...

ugh, this is mildlyinfuriating

[-] Primer81@lemmy.zip 43 points 2 months ago

I would assume they meant they posted on reddit initially - which could also help explain why it was removed 🙃

[-] IDKWhatUsernametoPutHereLolol@lemmy.dbzer0.com 43 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Nah look at the image, its @lemmy.world

Theres a trash can icon near it, meaning its deleted.

[-] Primer81@lemmy.zip 9 points 2 months ago

Oh yeah you're totally right - OP made a typo :P

[-] ByteOnBikes@slrpnk.net 24 points 2 months ago

Ah you're right sorry force of habit

[-] TriflingToad@sh.itjust.works 8 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

c/ is referring to the link

look at the link it shows c/ after your instance's url

For example: lemmy.dbzer0.com/c/piracy

[-] TriflingToad@sh.itjust.works 4 points 2 months ago

ohh I see. I use Voyager (mobile Lemmy app) so I don't see the link, many thanks :)

[-] sundrei@lemmy.sdf.org 59 points 2 months ago

Removed for political content

[-] ByteOnBikes@slrpnk.net 4 points 2 months ago

I'm laughing too hard at this thank you

[-] originalucifer@moist.catsweat.com 50 points 2 months ago

yep. ton of hyperactive modding on .world

the silver lining is showing everyone what a shit show that server can be, and forcing content to other instances

[-] hark@lemmy.world 27 points 2 months ago

The political memes community in particular has silly moderation. My post criticizing the billions in dollars being sent in support of genocide got deleted and when I asked for clarification, I got this explanation (and I quote):

You’re blatant accusing political partition being pro genocide.

This is an opinion.

But I know that no one is PRO genocide. Therefore stating it as such is misinformation. It was removed for this reason alone.

But I know that no one is PRO genocide.

I mean I understand wanting to see the world that way but whole entire societies of people can become genocidal. That is precisely what causes the atrocity of genocides like the palestinian genocide in gaza to grow out of control.

Once the centrists in a society accept the rightwing framing of the ideology of genocide they will treat it as the status quo and resist anyone who threatens it. This is what is so fucking terrifying about blind centrism, the substance doesn't matter at all to the ideology, just tracking the most commonly accepted "facts" which inveitably ends up in centrists bandwagoning behind an authoritarian.

This is the stage of fascism Israel is deep into and the US is not far behind in and it quickly obliterates in you any doubt that people actually can be pro-genocide.

We all have the potential to be, it is our choices and our empathy that give us agency to resist becoming so.

[-] kreskin@lemmy.world 5 points 2 months ago

agreed, politicalmemes is a zionist hellscape. I'm sure they're trying to take this place over like they took over reddit.

[-] ohellidk@sh.itjust.works 30 points 2 months ago
[-] unexposedhazard@discuss.tchncs.de 26 points 2 months ago

Wtf how could you possibly miss that this is about the CEO ?

[-] finitebanjo@lemmy.world 7 points 2 months ago

Being a CEO isn't a public office, killing them isn't a political act.

[-] unexposedhazard@discuss.tchncs.de 18 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

~~Thats the dumbest shit i have heard on here.~~ By that logic going to a protest isnt a political act, which it obviously is.

Basically anything that affects or targets a political topic is itself a political act. Donating to a party, posting a meme about a politician, writing an article about climate change, and yes killing the leader of a company while clearly targeting them for their decisions that negatively impacted the public and sparking the biggest public discourse about said industry in decades.

[-] finitebanjo@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

I mean

If your protest isn't about changing laws or regulations, then it's not political, it's just a really loud argument between citizens protesting and being protested.

Sometimes politicians will step into labor disputes in an attempt to make a compromise, such as when Pres. Biden made the railworker union's tentative agreement law despite the objections of many workers (but later got them the sick leave and other requests anyways).

In fact I think you could argue a person subverting the laws and passing their own judgement without any authority is the exact opposite of politics. If everyone did that then politics wouldn't even exist.

[-] njm1314@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago

They got it, they're just playing dumb because this is what they want.

[-] spujb@lemmy.cafe 15 points 2 months ago

“related to a thing that happened in the news and riffing off the least political aspect of that” isn’t going to read as political to 100% of people. im sorry you felt slighted here but i do totally see the mod’s angle.

[-] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 4 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

I don't know what forn of neurodivergent this indicates but it's something.

Is just pure gullibility its own diagnosis? Maybe it should be.

[-] spujb@lemmy.cafe 2 points 2 months ago

disgusted by the ableism you show here. learn and grow as a person.

[-] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 2 points 2 months ago

Okay buddy 👍

[-] themeatbridge@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

If you're wrong, would you be politically incorrect?

[-] Zachariah@lemmy.world 12 points 2 months ago

Maybe. But not with Bill Maher, okay?

[-] naticus@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

Deal and agreed.

[-] sem 13 points 2 months ago

He was a father??? Where is that canon?

[-] Khanzarate@lemmy.world 29 points 2 months ago
[-] sem 6 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Yeah the movies are weird

I guess Geppetto was a father too.

[-] tempest@lemmy.ca 19 points 2 months ago

I mean if you asked me what Pinocchio's father's name was I would have said Geppetto

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 12 points 2 months ago

Pinocchio literally calls him 'father.'

[-] ryedaft@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 months ago

Sauron made the orcs. Saruman made the hyper-orcs apparently.

[-] papalonian@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

Saruman made the hyper-orcs

The Uruk-Hai (which translates to "Orc Folk", ironically).

[-] finitebanjo@lemmy.world 12 points 2 months ago

"Murder your enemies" can be a political philosophy. Just not a legal one.

[-] slazer2au@lemmy.world 10 points 2 months ago

It's a satire site like The Onion so makes sense.

[-] WhatSay@slrpnk.net 9 points 2 months ago

I upvoted it there, will do here too, thanks for the lotr political meme

[-] StinkySocialist@lemmy.ml 6 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Edit: love the meme and f that dead ceo lol
