Continuing with the rise in anger towards wrong think on world, it's now uncivil to post negative Biden articles.

Shockly that comm looks just like r/politics now

I wonder if Lemmy.world's Red Scare will result in more leftists leaving .world, and more Liberals from Reddit replacing them, creating a schism between Lemmy.world and related instances, and Grad/Hexbear/.ml. a sort of Multipolar Lemmy.

I'm curious how long it will take until world just defeds from everyone for that reason

The admins know the userbase will eat itself without outside stimulus

[-] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 31 points 6 months ago

Good point, .ml has been the new target since they can't see grad or hexbear. They need a boogeyman.

[-] goferking0 17 points 6 months ago

Wonder who they'll go after next

[-] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 18 points 6 months ago

db0, probably, or lemm.ee. It will continue to be a moving target.

[-] triplenadir@lemmygrad.ml 31 points 6 months ago

aka the "ol Beehaw"

[-] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 30 points 6 months ago

It's a shifting target, anyone not in lock-step with Biden is challenged or eventually banned if it seems like people agree with them.

[-] reagansrottencorpse@lemmy.ml 35 points 6 months ago

Yes. I was originally on world. I left because of exactly that.

[-] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 24 points 6 months ago

Same, but .ee.

ngl i think its kind of unlikely, maybe a few people will but we wont see any real numbers leaving unless something big happens like .world defeds .ml or the instance just breaks and even then i doubt that many people will leave

Looking at it dialectically, I can't see this cold war lasting forever. Eventually the contradiction will be resolved, some inciting incident will cause it.

Might even be now, finally.

It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
