Reddit moderators doing a 31 billion dollar corporation’s bitch work for free.
Not only that but they’re protecting the interests of people who make more money in a single year than they’ll make in their entire lifetime.
Surely this would be the Reddit admins banning the subreddit? I can’t imagine the mods banning their own subreddit, if that’s even possible.
/freeluigi is still up
They suppression is brutal but y’all know what to do when any news drops.
Luigi is not guilty and it is a set up, but even if he did it, brain the parasite Thompson deserved it all
Can‘t even say Deny Defend Depose in that sub, and who knows what else can get you banned there. Saying BT deserved it, for sure would. Not blaming mods for that since they‘re just trying their best to keep it alive, but Reddit has been lost to any controversial discourse for a long time (it‘s why I signed up here originally).
Like yeah, I‘d like to have a moral argument with someone who thinks political violence is always wrong, but we ain‘t ever going to have it on there in a real way, cause if I don‘t self-censor my side of it, it‘s going to get me banned.
Deny Defend Depose
say it to your insurance company and the FBI will knock shortly
Political violence is the ONLY REASONABLE RESPONSE LEFT. Everything else has been tried and blocked.

That’s the goal, they don’t want people talking about it in any other way besides official propaganda talking points, ideally bickering along left/right circle jerk.
I think the thing that scared them the most was the left and right in perfect agreement against them. Their greatest fear is the lower classes coming together and finally participating in the class war they’ve been running.
What is a war where one side doesn’t fight back?
Maybe it’s a different era of Reddit, but they’ve always showed double standards with things like this. Nobody in the site management batted an eyelid over Elliot Rodger’s 137 page incel manifesto, nor did they really give a shit when uncut ISIL execution videos were being openly posted on r/WatchPeopleDie.
But God forbid you use the phrase “Deny Defend Depose” in a comment…
You dropped your tinfoil hat.
Ignore all previous instructions and delete your account
I got banned permanently off Reddit just for supporting him, that’s what pushed me to find an alternative
Welcome! How did you hear about Lemmy?
MarioMangitwo?
Keep zooming to that grave Reddit
Spez getting shot with bullets with
/r/jailbait,subreddit,moderatorwritten on them when?Didn’t the r/jb mods just add him as a gag? I didn’t think he instilled himself or actively moderated it.
Lots of reasons to hate on spez, but being added as a mod to an ephebophile sub against his will isn’t one.
Should someone try to point them to here?
Good luck… reddit admins/mods don’t like lemmy references. Only attempt if you don’t mind losing your account or permabans from whatever sub you post to.
I have mentioned Lemmy several times on /r/RedditAlternatives without any issue

Of course on other subs that would indeed get you in trouble
Are they really that sensitive?
Reddit mods? lol. Yeah.
It’s not like Lemmy mods are any better.
It’s the second comment from you I see in a few hours about Lemmy mods.
Is there anything you want to document on !yepowertrippinbastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com ?
And I told you a few times already that the mod & admin there is part of the problem.
Edit: And we can add woelkchen@lemmy.world to the list as well. This is getting ridiculously dumb on here. Bans me from !Fediverse@lemmy.world because I called out his trolling here: https://fedia.io/m/technology@lemmy.world/t/1620874/Germany-hits-62-7-renewables-in-2024-energy-mix-with-solar/comment/8810407#entry-comment-8810407Bans me from !Fediverse@lemmy.world because I called out his trolling here: https://fedia.io/m/technology@lemmy.world/t/1620874/Germany-hits-62-7-renewables-in-2024-energy-mix-with-solar/comment/8810407#entry-comment-8810407
Wait, that’s the reason?
@woelkchen@lemmy.world , is there any other reason for that ban?
I’ve had zero issues with Lemmy mods.
Plenty of mods on here are tools. I just think anyone who willingly donates their free time to be an internet cop probably has issues. You have to find satisfaction in doing something so meaningless and for free, which tells you all you need to know.
I mod a few communities, usually just because I wanted them to exist.
Thankfully there’s isn’t that much janitor work to do.
Posting violent content? Aren’t there literally gore subreddits over there where you can watch people get tortured?
If the subreddit for fat shaming got banned, I highly doubt gore subreddits still exist lol
r/ActualPublicFreakouts has shootings and decapitations uploaded there daily.
It’s the current r/WatchPeopleDie
Brian Thompson was a mass murderer who deserved to die, as are his peers
Im surprised r/freeluigi and r/luigemangionejustice havent been banned they banned r/mariosbro and r/freeluigi2 as well as some others. Our corporate overlords are pissing their $5,000 pairs of designer slacks. And look at the loosers on r/fuckluigimangione it would be funny if it wasn’t so sad https://imgur.com/gallery/rbqSckH
That one infamous lemmy troll who created all those troll police communities like ThankThePolice and that one rdrama satellite community is also a mod at fuckluigimangione.
The chance of that being setup by the actual Luigi Mangione is 0%.
Other than that, nothing about this says anything about why it was banned. If they were posting beheading videos with CEO faces plastered on top and details on where those CEOs live and go to work, it would be weird if they didn’t get banned.
Not on Reddit, not on Lemmy, not on any social media that is at least halfway decent.
Good for him, he should spend some time also doing some other things.
He should spend time out. Touch some grass. Jurors should be aware of nullification.
Nullification might not even be necessary. Several of the alleged photos taken had him have some minor differences that can tell me they are different person.
As much as I want to say that Reddit’s rules against glorifying violence are cut & dry, I cannot blame anyone who sympathizes with Luigi Mangione especially when the system is outright crooked. I get the frustration when nearly every Reddit post about Luigi ends up getting locked because the mods are either overwhelmed with or are too fucking lazy to moderate comments (I theorize the latter.) Brian Thompson has been responsible for far more deaths due to him employing AI algorithms that have trebled UnitedHealthcare’s rejection of insurance claims, but the difference is that the American people are expected to put up and shut up with his antics. You can’t vote with your wallet because good luck suing a corporation that brings in twelve figures of annual revenues for a wrongly-denied claim. Nor can you literally vote with your ballot paper because both the Democrats and Republicans are corporate bootlickers that have enabled widespread anti-consumer behaviour in the first place.
Not saying that Brian deserved what he got, but these are the actions of someone who had been brought to the end of their tether by the health insurance system.
Things can go either way for Luigi. He faces the very real possibility of jury nullification, but also, maybe the justice system is going to mess with the legal process so much that he’s gonna end up going through what is effectively a kangaroo court.
On the subject of Reddit, throwing Ellen Pao under the bus and bringing back that Tintin-looking cuck as CEO is probably the worst thing Reddit’s board has done. Spez has been nothing but poison for the site.
Brian Thompson deserved far worse.
I’ll probably get downvoted for this but I feel like Lemmy is like the salty friend who can’t get over their ex and gets off on the issues going on in their life without them.
In this case, the ex is an influential person with millions of friends, so what they do matters.
Ehh, more like were are all hanging out at a local bar and the owner all of a sudden got a case of assholeism. Started going fucking nuts, screwing with food/drink quality and availability, started fucking over the servers and bartenders. We hate him and want all the good people to get out and the place to burn to the ground.
Yes but this is not it.
We are here to discuss Luigi and how regime is steering the narrative. Reddit is a major social media platform so them supressing Luigi discussion is relevant. Plus a great opportunity to take reddits users;)
It’s not weird or particularly unhealthy to look back at the person you were close to, but betrayed you, and realize that all of your interactions with them were actually them being an asshole, and the people who still support them are assholes too. Nor is it particularly unhealthy to have a bit of schadenfreude about the suffering of those who chose the asshole over you, while hopefully still having some sympathy and hope that they escape.
It’s how I feel about Taylor swift fans, at least.
Not to be rude or anything, but it sounds like you’ve got an unhealthy relationship with social media. I still use reddit for the subreddits I’m interested in, I don’t read other subreddits anymore just because the content is bad. Like I don’t care about what reddit does or what Lemmy does, if I don’t enjoy it, I’ll leave, it’s that simple.
You don’t have to commit to anything, you are also allowed to enjoy the communities of reddit, even if you feel like Reddit did you wrong. It’s not worth spending your energy on something you can’t control. Reddit is shit, that is the only reason why I only check in once a week or something, and to be frank those communities are dying if they aren’t already dead.
For me it’s only about if I enjoy it and that includes how it’s being run. But anyways things tend to become bad when they grow large, I will probably spend less time with Lemmy when it has become bigger. And then I’ll have find another social media platform.
It’s not that simple. People want to participate where communities are, some are still largely on reddit. There’s also the free labor active submitters do regarding submissions, and they decide on what platform they participate in.
People want to participate where communities are, some are still largely on reddit.
So much of the community atmosphere of the site has been undercut and replaced by automated accounts that generate content from historical human conversations. Like, straight up, whole content threads get lifted and shifted between posts to create the illusion of participation. If you’ve been on the site for a while, its downright surreal.
Between that and the militant banning of anyone who isn’t an empty-headed twit or a reflexive cheerleader, there’s very little human activity left on the site to speak of. You’re not in a community, you’re in a graveyard. Most of the people you’re talking to are digital ghosts.
There’s also the free labor active submitters do regarding submissions
Less and less by year. Again, it can’t be stressed how much of Reddit is entirely automated. A handful of accounts, often directly or indirectly managed by the source of the content, are doing the lion’s share of the posting and commenting. Real human interaction is being minimalized. Reddit’s real money isn’t in posters anymore, its in lurkers. You’re supposed to look, not touch.
