dank memes

Rules:

  1. All posts must be memes and follow a general meme setup.

  2. No unedited webcomics.

  3. Someone saying something funny or cringe on twitter/tumblr/reddit/etc. is not a meme. Post that stuff in /c/slop

  4. Va*sh posting is haram and will be removed.

  5. Follow the code of conduct.

  6. Tag OC at the end of your title and we'll probably pin it for a while if we see it.

  7. Recent reposts might be removed.

  8. Tagging OC with the hexbear watermark is praxis.

  9. No anti-natalism memes. See: Eco-fascism Primer

Crazy that both things happened so close together. Wannabe reddit admins doing fed work for free lmao. Such loser shit.

It sounds like the pinned public shaming post that definitely wasn't meant to be an attack on KR had its intended effect.

these same people will cry about leaked dms showing theyre shitlords and say that leaking dms is an ontological evil but then will leak dms of someone saying 100% true things

I think some of what the user said was backwards, like I commented in the first thread about this, but I agree that this is a microcosm of liberal hypocrites and how they use their own "rules-based" international order (and of course that the treatment was ridiculous and undeserved).

[–] kristina@hexbear.net 11 points 4 days ago (1 children)

yeah i think theres room for a critical analysis of what they said but quite a lot of it was simple fact.

[–] purpleworm@hexbear.net 10 points 4 days ago

I agree, and a lot was also demonstrative of having a good mindset about trying not to be partisan in establishing facts.

Wannabe reddit admins doing fed work for free lmao

it's the only explanation that makes sense; why else would reddit and instagram tolerate advertisements for piefed and lemmy.world, but not any of the others.

Rudd was included in a group of mastodon admins of large instances who were invited to meet with Meta representatives before Threads was launched. Rudd is the primary admin of lemmy.world and is one of the few that did not sign onto the anti-meta pact of lemmy admins. Other .world admins have worked closely with Rimu on piefed development.

if my suspicions about them are correct --that want to migrate people off of lemmy and onto piefed because of lemmy's access to leftist content. then i can see how it will happen with rudd and rimu's efforts.

that's genuinely mind blowing. it all adds up.
