    I don't think they're trolling, this seems to genuinely be their belief and warrants discussion. The poster mentioned recently that they have autism, and as a neurodivergent person myself I can attest that it often takes some back-and-forth to realize when I'm wrong.

        Just a reminder that if Musk can do this with no ownership of reddit, you know the CCP through Tencent has been doing it for ages.

            "Spez's website" when he wants to change policy, and "our community" when bots try to convince us to stay.

              Don’t let it piss you off. Just don’t participate. Leave Reddit. Leave FB. Delete, delete, delete.

              Now we just need to make more Lemmy posts that aren't about them.

                The day I saw Trump win I knew Reddit was going on the chopping block but even then, it’s been going downhill since 2016 with bots, bot mods, and language policing. Merely saying ‘fucking Luigi’ is a ban worthy offense and it’s absolutely asinine.

                  Reddit has been a an archive of some of the greatest collective minds of humanity. Besides the general algorithm up voting bots hogwash, there have been some really good subreddits with excellent information from learned professionals on topics. it I wish it was preserved rather than deleted. The AskHistorians is one of my favourite professional vetted and clean subreddits, lots of academic discussions there.

                  But all things have a Golden Era, and then it's enshittified and fades away. As Lemmy will be one day too.

                  Yeah, and try as we might, we haven't been able to replicate its biggest selling point. It was unfortunately also its greatest vulnerability regarding the corporatetake over.

                  It was a central location from which thousands of large, niche communities could be found.

                  Lemmy is great, but the decentralized nature of it also fragments small communities and makes it hard for them to launch. I was super active of the Scuba subreddit, but on Lemmy, there are like 8 scuba communities spread across the instances, but they're all so small there's no activity on them, and that fragmentation makes it difficult for one to reach the necessary critical mass to become active.

                    Shame that the “DAE CHINA BAD” being shoehorned into unrelated conversations has made its way over to Lemmy now.

                      Well anyway, one has to enjoy the great sunny weather today with bbq and sun baths on my summer property so that’s about the amount of attention this topic deserves.

                      Certainly feels like trolling.

                        I never believed reptilian conspiracy theories but now every time i see his photo and his eyes remind me of reptilian. So what if it is true? What if them ultra rich with true background story how they climbed ladder of power and success are actual reptilians who make regular earth humans do crazy shit. What if? Because nothing else controls people on the planet but ultra rich. Ultra rich do not go to wars and usually do not deal directly with poor common man. They live in their own world behind the walls similar like in the movie "In time". Putin does not go to war neither his children, or trump. They send poor/uneducated or impressionable people to spill the blood of others.

                            I just left after twenty years. I warned them about overly censoring in their research calls but I guess they didn’t want to listen

                                          I received two platform bans in the last few months over the most asinine things. Hadn’t gotten a single one in nearly 15 years up until now.
