Waiting for Spez to weigh in with his typical subtlety and even-handedness... 🍿

THATS what spez looks like??? I was expecting some corporate looking lawyer type face. This is more like that incel who repulsed girls in high school, and is now in his 40s.....but still very much the same person.

Such a punchable face.

Don't forget that he used to be a moderator of r/jailbait

He's got lifeless eyes, black eyes, like a doll's eyes. When he comes at you it doesn't seem to be livin'... until he bites you, and those black eyes roll over white.

[-] atomicorange@lemmy.world 17 points 6 months ago

He looks like Zuckerberg fucked Ellen DeGeneres.

And start banning mods who don’t support Musk and Nazism, wholeheartedly.

Remember last time Redditor's protested only to cave so they could keep being mods? Pepperidge Farm remembers.

[-] Spezi@feddit.org 106 points 6 months ago

I was the founder of r/TIHI in a past life and u/spez removed all of us moderators because we weren‘t opening the sub as part of our protest.

I them requested them to take down the subs title picture and logo which I created and they didn‘t even bother.

[-] conditional_soup@lemm.ee 21 points 6 months ago

Thank you for your service

A redditor of quality, you have my respect.

Yeah let’s see if they keep this up. In a few weeks they’ll cave in and say, “Well we want to keep people informed”.

why do they still show these kind of pictures of him. for me there is only one picture of him to show from now on

[-] echodot@feddit.uk 45 points 6 months ago

Oh yes for the totally unproblematic picture taken at the inauguration, and since it's so unproblematic he can't possibly have an issue with it being posted.

Although a solid second favorite is him in a punk leather jacket. Mostly because he hates it.

[-] downhomechunk@midwest.social 20 points 6 months ago

I would also accept the picture of him leaping 2" off the ground with both arms up and his belly showing.

Lemmy instances should follow suit.

[-] thespcicifcocean@lemmy.world 19 points 6 months ago

I'm surprised it hasn't happened yet

[-] LifeInMultipleChoice@lemmy.world 24 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

Dbzer0 took a vote and will block it from their instance I believe

[-] airportline@lemmy.ml 15 points 6 months ago

I just added it as a rule for the communities I moderate. I also set my Bluesky feeds to filter out X links.

Aaaand here come the admins to relentlessly bully any mods involved in this into submission. Because the reddit admins are pathetic, greedy little pig boys who don't give a flying shit about their users or moderators.

[-] Aeri@lemmy.world 58 points 7 months ago

Oh that'll fucking show em

[-] stardust@lemmy.ca 42 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

Twitter probably benefits from people being redirected to their site from repostings with how it has become the go to source for news like sports, so it might. Won't hurt Elon financially but less people being exposed to the content there that Elon wants to push that don't actively use Twitter is a good thing even if it is only a few.

Even small moves is a good thing with how over the years sports and game submissions have become increasingly more Twitter submissions.

Meta, Twitter, now tiktok. BLATANTLY obvious coordination to propagandize social media.

Fuck then all, damn then to hell, scourge of modern society.

[-] Eezyville@sh.itjust.works 12 points 6 months ago

I used to spend time on Facebook catching up with friends and family. That was way back in like 2010. I can't stand that platform now. It's all AI trash and random reels. I don't even know why I'm getting some of these reels but I suspect they are sharing data with other platforms like YT. I miss the internet of the 2000s...

Liberals are just sheep. They believe whatever the media tells them.

That projection.

My first reaction when seeing the salute was ” oh come on, it can’t be that bad… oh it’s way worse than I thought”

[-] AbidanYre@lemmy.world 26 points 6 months ago

As they mindlessly repeat whatever they just saw linked on "onlyrealpatriots.info.biz" from Facebook.

[-] stardust@lemmy.ca 18 points 6 months ago

I laughed when he did it twice as if just to emphasize the first one wasn't a mistake.

Yeah, fuck Reddit. They are part of the problem.

A more fractured internet is coming. Posting sources will be forbidden. Discourse will become more polarized, disconnected, and extreme.

Most of these Reddit bans on Twitter are also half assed. They still allow screenshots of Twitter posts. That means the content is still spread, and Twitter remains relevant.

Lots of these subreddits don’t even get a lot of Twitter links in the first place. Like for lotrmemes it makes zero difference.

That said, Musk and Twitter suck. I have deleted my Twitter account three years ago.

However there still is some information, where Twitter is a good source.

Yeah that'll show him. I'm sure he's gonna lose a ton of sleep over the miniscule amount of traffic that's going to drop for his shitty website that he bought and drove into the ground.

Wait actually he cares way too much about how people view him so it might actually bother him a ton. It's hard to say really.

Either way stop using Twitter and reddit. Both terrible.

Beware of this festering pile of excrement that is the conservative subreddit. Ready your sanity and eye bleach before venturing in

[-] Yuper@lemmy.world 25 points 7 months ago

What’s “X”? Is that p0rn or something?

In before reddit forces those subs to allow links to twitter.

[-] Lemminary@lemmy.world 18 points 7 months ago

Good idea. We should do this here.

Kinda wild to me it took this long but I'm not going to be mad about doing the right thing.

[-] b3an@lemmy.world 14 points 6 months ago

If this is what it took they were just lazy before. This has been CLEARLY where he is pushing things for a long time now. Twitter is in the Xhitter.

[-] magnetosphere@fedia.io 14 points 7 months ago

I wonder how long their corporate overlords will allow this to continue.
