i left reddit for good today with their obvious attempt at controlling the narrative like the rest of big social media. long live the lemmy federation
Follow the money—because that’s where the power is. The elites crave control, and to grow their wealth, they must control society. Any social group that could challenge their narrative is relentlessly suppressed. Reddit, once a space for free speech, has transformed into what Facebook was—a corporation that bends to their interests. Now, Reddit is just another part of the network they control.
It’s the Luigi overpowered as can be.
Naw, ever see A Bug’s Life where the Crickets only bully the ants because it’s to distract them from realizing a thousand ants are stronger than one cricket?
Yes but in my version it was grasshoppers and not crickets
DAmn, that’s the version where Flick doesn’t have the most amazing tits. He’s still male in mine, he just has great booba, kinda like “TheyCallHimCake”
Well, Trump said that they will push to get the death penalty for drug dealers…
Lock and load, folks.
We’re hunting pharmaceutical CEOs.
they should… once you take everything away from somoene, they have nothing to lose… they have to be getting close to that on some of the people on the lowest rungs of surviving
Yeah the banning for upvotes thing was pretty final straw for me. It’ll be a conservative shit hole like Twitter soon enough
isnt it already, only allowing some center right content to be on it to “seem balance” but allowing right wingers to astroturf all the subs.
People up voting Luigi posts got banned? Yeah I’m glad I’m not on there anymore. Lemmy seems like my kind of community. Honestly feels like how reddit used to feel like. Good honest people.
upvoting is ridiculous, but from what ive heard another site, Upvoting, in general flags your account if its new on certain subs, i think they are just expanding it to sitewide.
No, not because of that guy. Because of us. They are afraid of us. They should be.
I got banned from late stage capitalism for questioning why they have a hard on for China.
Strangely reminds me of the Always Sunny episode where they convinced people that a water stain on their kitchen wall was the Virgin Mary, and Charlie started blessing people. On a serious note tho, portraying Luigi Mangione and Donald Trump as saviors seems equally fucked up to me.
1 is not the same, trump is treated as a god emperor by his followers, and he can do no wrong despite what he has done. the other being showing what was wrong with the society and backing why he did it.
I doubt most people see Luigi as a savior, just a symbol of retribution in a world that lacks justice
Yeah I think the two portrayals seem equally fucked up, not equally popular.
Reddit Exodus v43, stay tuned everyone
It is amazing how much fear Luigi has put into the establishment.
I left reddit for good yesterday as well. To hell with their censorship.
Anybody got a wallpaper version of this? LMFAO
They are afraid of copycats, but they had months to try and stop them by just loosening their strangle hold on society. I heard another exec got offed last month in his home in Oregon. it’s starting
Their strategy instead is to announce wars and terrify every 20 minutes so that the news cycle is too full of other crisis to remember this guy.
The thing is, I think our attention spans are too cooked to be overwhelmed like that anymore. A new crisis every 20 minutes? I can get through 40+ tiktok videos in that time, and half of them will be about something they are trying to terrify with (trans rights, science defunding, bird flu, racism, palestine, the oligarchy, luigi, etc.)
The old media can’t keep up, but I’m in my mid-thirties and even my old brain can handle being pulled in dozens of directions and still think about/remember Luigi, unprompted, multiple times a day.
Yeah that’s not going to work when they’re inorganically doing the suppression
As always, follow the money. Those in power want more and more money and in order to do so they need to control the population. If there is one remaining social aggregate that can foster sentiment against them, they will come down hard on it. Reddit became a corporation like Facebook and then now they want to add Reddit to the list of social aggregates they control.
i love how they were scrambling to rein in the conservative audiences of these msms, and social media early on in the manhunt of luigi. the grifters kept quiet for a whole month before they were able to reorient thier strategy to divide “left” vs right again.
It’s an addiction, like being addicted to heroin. We should have done an intervention long ago, but the addicts are running the show. And capitalism seems to favor and promote the addicts so we have a feedback loop that I fear cannot be stopped.
SIC SEMPER TYRANNIS
