Oh thanks I appreciate it, I think it was a solid meme. No community is perfect, but at least it’s easy to find an alternative community if one ends up… not being a good fit lol

That’s actually what my deleted comment was about, looking at the reasons given in the modlog for deleting comments. Inb4 this comment gets deleted too lmao

Hey that’s me!

reason: lemmy.ml rule 1 (“butt hurt”)

I’m not really butt hurt. I’m actually a mod myself, but for a tiny community that doesn’t get a bunch of awful comments. I really do have respect for the amount of garbage the mods in worldnews@lemmy.ml and memes@lemmy.ml have to go through. Most of the comments they remove are completely valid.

But this is a meme sub so…

What the heck did you just hecking say about me, you little mod? I’ll have you know I graduated top of my class in the lemmy.world Navy Seals, and I’ve been involved in numerous secret raids on Al-Quaeda.ml, and I have over 300 confirmed comments. I am trained in gorilla shitposting and I’m the top sniper in the entire fediverse armed forces. You are nothing to me but just another mod. I will wipe you the heck out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my hecking words. You think you can get away with saying that poopy to me over the Internet? Think again, meanypants. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of spies across the fediverse and your IP is being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, picklebrain. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your modlog. You’re hecking over, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can comment at you in over seven hundred ways, and that’s just with my bare hands. Not only am I extensively trained in verbal combat, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the lemmy Marine Corps and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable bubblebutt off the face of the Internet, you little bozo. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little “clever” mod action was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your hecking finger. But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, you goshdarn dumbo. I will poop butthurt comments all over you and you will drown in it. You’re hecking done, kiddo.

Lucky, my school only did gay algebra and look at me now 😩

It’s a word outside of lemmy. Just means an authoritarian communist

I’m starting to realize one of the biggest issues with the fediverse is how much tribalism is going to play a part in interactions between instances. It seems like every instance is going to have some absurd stereotypes that get repeated as fact.

Some people in .ml and hexbear were labeled tankies, accurately or not, and now you’re all tankies. And this post seems to be in response to that, saying the word tankie isn’t even a real thing. And now we have comments suggesting lemmy.world is also a unified group promoting certain ideologies. It’s the largest instance, we’re gonna have one-off crazies saying stupid stuff.

I know it does makes a small difference being on .world vs .ml/hexbear. But most people in both are leftists if what I’ve seen is accurate. We’re just being stereotypical leftist splintering ourselves into separate groups over the smallest differences.

Paris is spending a bunch of money to clean up the river because they want to have the swimming events in the river. The citizens of Paris are protesting by planning to shit in the river.

Zionism is a religious and political movement to reclaim Palestine for the Israeli people and views that land as inherently belonging to Jewish people because God said so.

That belief alone is not enough to call it a genocidal ideology. However, because Zionists overwhelmingly “reclaim” the land by terrorizing the current inhabitants, it’s not that much of a stretch.

It is also inherently nationalistic and Zionists are inherently colonizers. It’s not racist to say that because it’s an ideology, and a harmful one.

Just like I’d call all Westboro Baptists bigots. And I’d call any far-right group fascists. The Zionist ideology is the exact same

You said in another comment that Israel is justified in their violence because Hamas is their neighbor that has been launching bombs across the border.

And in this comment you blame Hamas violence on bigotry.

Until you acknowledge the decades of unprovoked violence to the Palestinian people by Israeli settlers, you will not be taken seriously.

Israelis are capable and have shown clear bigotry towards the Palestinians. And Hamas is violent because they were forced to be neighbors with settlers that were often violent.

You can keep pretending to be unbiased, but your bias is showing very clearly.

I’m not reading every article you posted cuz I have a life, but this random one I clicked says this

To be clear, the Kremlin’s claims that Ukraine is a hornets’ nest of fascists are false: far-right parties performed poorly in Ukraine’s last parliamentary elections, and Ukrainians reacted with alarm to the National Militia’s demonstration in Kiev.

Yeah, there are neo-nazi fascists in Ukraine. And almost every other country on earth. They have a problem, and the war with Russia made it more difficult for them to deal with it. But unless you can’t point me to one article (instead of listing a dozen at a time for some reason) that indicates it’s backed by the Ukrainian government, then I don’t see why the Ukrainian flag should be included in this meme. The US flag, sure, it looks like one of the articles is suggesting the US has supported fascists in Ukraine. But not Ukraine itself, and Russia is absolutely not invading to defeat the neo-nazis in Ukraine. Especially since Putin has been a textbook fascist since he took office and has barely tried to hide it.

There’s an old saying in Tennessee (I know it’s in Texas, probably in Tennessee) that says, take the first path, shame on… shame on you. The third path- you can’t get fooled again.

Isn’t this comment basically joking? Why is everyone taking it so seriously lol
