I can’t blame them for falling for the propaganda, yes. After all, it was designed to deceive as many people as possible.

Why not Renee Good?
I think OP accidentally posted two abusers.


Oh, okay. Got it.
Thanks for the answer!

Does defederating from hexbear also require defederating from other instances thar federate with hexbear?


Seems more like a client-side feature to me. Let people hide comments below -3 by default.


I’m pretty sure auth-lept authorities ARE the boot.


Sorry, my bad. I was thinking of Cole’s Law.


I thought it said “a bald guy with a wand” which also fits in this case.


Mastodon.social, I guess?
(I’m either right or someone will show up to correct me shortly, as per Murphy’s law :P)
IDK, missing (or deliberately ignoring) context is also a deeply human issue. Don’t act like you captcha-pressers are any better than us in that matter.
Honestly, “OP did this on purpose” is an entirely reasonable stance on the issue. And either way, the blame might also fall on the instance moderators for allowing it (are there rules about off-topic posts? I’m too tired to check)
And yeah, you’re definitely right to be salty about this. The Internet is where nuance goes to be stabbed to death in a back alley.
As for the Substack discourse, I guess that Substack is at the very least being naive about the whole thing? Idk. I’m tired of all of this Intenet discourse and having a new hot topic issue every goddamn day.
All I know is that if a platform sent me a notification about an openly Nazi blog, swastika and all, I would have some second thoughts about using it.
It should have been blurred out or redacted, then. Because naturally, people will be more eager to discuss a Nazi problem than some fediverse bug.
Isn’t that exactly why? Everyone is too burned out from living their lives, and the predatory (heh) nature of social media platforms is draining even more energy from them.
We need to support each other and help each other get out of this state, not point fingers at each other.
And when that happens, uniting and bringing them down will be possible.
That said, jail isn’t nearly enough punishment for the Epstein class.
