let’s do this differently than every other time they show up on social media. get their addresses.
They are slowly leaking into lemmy.world, my friends living in .world please try your best to hold your position there. Don’t let them break through
We should keep them all trapped on twitter forever.
It’s a good containment zone for the trash.
If you see someone supporting Trump tell them to go back to twitter and block them
Just had to block someone that said wanting a democracy and not supporting a dictatorship was “Chasing perfection at the cost of the good”.
That’s wild given a dictatorship has the whole issue of succession, even with a perfectly benevolent leader they gonna die one day.
haha goddamn
Whenever beating up fascists and their sympathizers is a question the answer is always yes >:3
You only have to talk sense.
lol. you just got here, huh?
So much harder to manufacture consent without centralized gatekeepers
That makes me wonder, what comes after decentralized gatekeepers?

Isn’t it weird how much harder it is for them to tip the scales on Lemmy and Mastodon, platforms without algorithms designed by right-wing billionaires?
To be fair, it took a huge Reddit exodus for Lemmy to stop being full-blown work camp supporting communist. I’m sure if enough to right wing trolls showed up, this place would change again too
We are fortunate then, that the upcoming generation of conservatives cannot read.
That’s a good point, but at least the views would reflect those of the majority rather than being algorithmically-manipulated as on Twitter or Facebook.
The bittersweet end of a successful movement. The public will be better off after Fediverse Eternal September.
WHAT? Are you implying that the rich used the advantage of closed black box algorithms to screw with peoples opinions, motivations and emotions for the goal of enriching themselves both financially and with power‽
Preposterous!/s
Hey it isn’t nice to beat up people who only want to seriously hurt and maim you, your family and your friends.
Right? What happened to tolerance?
What happened to tolerance is quite clear, to the point that it has a name, it is called the paradox of tolerance.
I had never heard of the paradox of tolerance. TIL
Well, bluesky isn’t the fediverse, but the point stands.
You’re correct. But blue sky does support federation, just not the same protocol as the fediverse, right?
BlueSky does not support federation in any way that we understand the word.
It is 100% reliant on the corporate server(s). They do offer a way to host your own data, which solves a singular problem with corporate media, which seems to be what they mean when they promote it “supporting federation.” Is also has an open codebase, which is something.
As an aside, I have read in some places that self-hosting is very straightforward, and in other places that it is prohibitively difficult. I have basically no idea about any of these things.
Federation with what?
I’m ignorant af tbh 😅 Thanks for the clarification
Part of their marketing seems to be to create confusion about it. Bluesky uses the language and values of the fediverse to promote what is essentially another closed network. Meta is also doing this with Threads. Bluesky seems like a chill place and a lot of decent people seem to be very happy there, and they provide a lot more user controls than other networks, so the comic definitely still works.
I think Mastodon would be what you’re looking for.
Bluesy is a business, Mastodon is a community tool that runs on the ActivityPub (same as Lemmy which is what we are talkin on).
Chances are, fediverse will end up with right wing instances that only communicate with themselves and maybe some centrists, left wing will only communicate with themselves and maybe some centrists, centrists will see all
centrists will see all
I dunno, has this ever actually happened? I think centrists almost universally end up backing the right-wing. Hell, the Centrists were vital in the Nazi’s coming to power, and it literally would not have happened without them.
And the ‘left wing’ is going to be a fractured bunch that overlap slightly, yet Social Democrats, Marxists, Anarcha-Feminists, these ‘left wing’ groups have vastly different ideas of the best way to help everyone, and I don’t see Centrists asking the Anarchists what’s up. Centrists are how we got neo-Liberalism, and ‘well we can’t BAN abortion… but we can limit it unless the woman is…’ They want an ‘inbetween’ in an era when fascists have taken over the most powerful country in the world, with the open backing of fascists/authoritarians in other nations. What’s the centrist response to concentration camps in Guantanamo Bay? What sort of chat will happen between Centrists and the Right-Wing with banning abortion? How about the rights of people transitioning? Because from what I’m seeing, they seem awfully okay with it.
See all, but understand nothing.
Y’all jock ride VC money interests too much
Based on specific events or??
This looks like it was printed in a newspaper in the 80’s and scanned to digital in the 90’s. If this was a filter I’d use it on all my memes.

Wow, they really just strung together a bunch of totally unrelated thoughts, didn’t they?
When the left wingers help vote in Trump or choose not to vote they pretty much are conservatives so what’s your point?
Biden’s nor Harris are left wing. Clinton certainly isn’t.
Obama, Harris, Biden and Clinton are all liberals.
A liberal is a centre-left winger who actually has a chance of winning.
Liberals are not left wing, the left starts at the abolition of capitalism. Without that they cannot back up any concept of equality or equity.
…and that’s why you don’t win.
That’s fine, liberalism will be overthrown like it’s sister ideology feudalism before it.
