External links: the fucking motte. All of it, not any particular discussion.
I’m so tired.

It seems like most still-active redditors have consulted Ass, My, et al (2024) to conclude any alternative to reddit were abject failures and not worth investigating
Trace RTs someone hoping aloud that his nonsense gets laundered by an RS, then breathlessly reports on his literal transparent brigade getting unbanned using a very strained appeal to WP:AGF, so I am starting to get a picture of his end-goal.
as, indeed, has started to happen https://xcancel.com/thezahima/status/1811495742894408065
I miss the good old days when they had to make sneersneerclub to talk behind our backs instead of chatting up a wall, oblivious.
I meant the lemm.ee user they’re speaking to, compare to https://awful.systems/comment/3881131
As @[email protected] says, this is not just an eyesore for people not on awful.sys, but unmoderated bullshit that is, for some reason, being federated out to everyone (except awful.sys).
I bring this up because this is some fresh new jank, not from concentrate: who is supposed to moderate hate speech or disinformation that is being spread in this way? Why does lemmy federate comments from banned people? This happens in techtakes as well, another user has no idea they’re banned, posts regularly and is having conversations with no indication that this guy is persona non grata.
I think he is trying to say something like “non-zero skew”, but really, he just means “I subscribe to race science, but only for the articles”.
TracingWoodgrains seems to have developed, in the process of leaving mormonism, an obsession with seeking out contrarianism. But perhaps more importantly, he openly admits to being racist/HBD “align[s] broadly with informed experts that the distribution of genetic traits associated with intelligence is non-zero”. As such, he only considers it “racism” if it’s “racial crassness and antagonism”.
In which TW names who he thinks is treating the topic with the seriousness it demands without sinking to crassness: our good good friend Cremieux.
Absolutely magnificent that this guy took a break from posting about OLED WLAN DNS SKU TCL and 800 ISO without bokah at like f/16 to come in here and chastise us for using in-group terms.
Trying to imagine what would a mirror universe Musk gets up to. I think any level of notoriety for him inevitably ends in execution after some failed palace intrigue.
Doesn’t look like they did any coordinating (openly, at least), only 9 comments on NixOS, 4 in November when Srid went straight to themotte crying about being banned for CoC violation, and 5 on 5 May where they are baffled and unable to even understand criticism of JR/Anduril.
Incidentally, the “woke invasion” page says the author got banned in November, so I guess Shivaraj is an alias of Srid.
