Seeing the liberty hub head mod get chased out because of an honest mistake is pretty fucking disheartening. Liberty hub was one of the only places that was free of the reddit brainworms that infest almost every lemmy instance because of liberty hub’s aggressive modding.
All of the people celebrating him being chased out have been banned from liberty hub for very valid reasons, whether they were very argumentative or genocide apologists. Seriously. Look up the modlog of the people actually celebrating it.
I could put up with 196’s bullshit by just blocking them and hoping none of their frequent posters wandered into spaces i took part in but the fact that non-voters is still allowed to run when it’s very clearly just meant to be a place to post content that’s incendiary towards people who hold political beliefs that don’t line up with mindgoblin’s as a reaction to mindgoblin being banned from liberty hub for being incredibly argumentative is honestly pretty gross.
I’m just gonna pass mod of the comms i manage to someone i can sorta hope to handle it.
I’m too fucking old and not terminally online enough to put up with this, i’m clearly not the target demographic. Good fucking luck
Ada, I disagree with being characterised as a moderate. I’m a soulist, which any terminally online politics geek can tell you is so far to the left that most people think we don’t exist. I believe in voting for Biden because I’m concerned about genocide against trans people in the US and Palestinians in the West Bank, both of which a Trump presidency would guarantee. Linkopenschest is playing chicken with fascism against the DNC because he thinks principles are more important than lives, not because he’s further left than me or any other member of Non Voters. I don’t expect you to repeat that last part because you’re committed to impartiality, but please don’t call me a moderate. That’s just a lie Linkopenschest made up about me.
It’s shocking that people don’t see these users as the very obvious trolls they are. People like LoC (and several other usual suspects) literally contribute nothing to any community besides agitation. If you really need a “line” that’s where it is. This “radical tolerance” for obvious propaganda and information warfare is honestly disgusting, and compromise safe spaces far more than it preserves them.
I will say that there are trans people on Liberty Hub who genuinely believe in not voting. And the explanation for this is very simple: The community is a suicide cult. Trump is flavor-ade and Linkopenschest has convinced the members to drink it if it means “standing up for Gaza”. He’s willing to die for his principles, and to take the rest of us with him.
False, you’re extrapolating that he’ll not vote or vote for Trump based on what he says about Biden, which is completely fallacious reasoning.
I frequent LibertyHub and LinkOpensChest didn’t convince me of shit. I’m a whole person with very strongly held and well developed political beliefs. Just because you don’t agree with those beliefs doesn’t mean I’m a brainwashed slave resolved to stripping your rights and installing a fascist dictator.
Man, shut up. You’re so annoying to everyone here. You’ve caused more drama than anyone else, including the reason why LOC.wav left.
I’ve edited the post.
Honestly Maga believes principles are more important than lives, and until Biden withdrew today, they were winning.
The truth is politics has become so hideously compromised that almost nobody is a “great” candidate anymore, nobody is inspiring. Watching everyone close ranks against Sanders last election solidified that.
You might disagree. But disagreeing doesn’t make it true. E.g Pelosi swears she’s progressive, but that’s not true
You believe marxist leninists are moderates, and that socdems are the only real communists calling for revolution.
Either your politics are incomprehensible as a base or you are a fed running an op on leftist spaces.
Nothing you say is to be trusted with how hard you are trying to agitate this space.
