Show me ONE of those photos as a video making the actual gesture.

Just one.

That takes an expert?

You understand that he wants to eradicate ADHD medication, right? The concentration camps are his alternative to provenly effective medication.

More of a creepy magenta.

“Utilities threatened to shut off my power so… I will turn off all the lights in protest!”

That’ll show ‘em.

Anyone who quits Meta says Mark Zuckerberg is a colossal dick.

As a bassist of 30+ years…… I feel seen.

Looks like the difficulty modes of Cyberpunk 2077.

I’m pretty sure you should have been allowed an appeal. I believe it’s a “bylaw” of lemmy. Next time you feel you’ve had a comment unfairly removed or you’ve been banned for something you feel wasn’t worthy of a ban, reach out to a moderator of that community and just ask.

We’re not Reddit. Sometimes, misunderstandings happen.

Sounds like ≠ is. Which is why I tried explaining it better.

You’re not being encouraged to have drawn out discussions with trolls. WE (mods) are encouraged to not insta-ban or knee-jerk remove content just because it might lie within a grey area of what we consider trolling, like other instances do from time to time. If someone is blatantly trolling, which is usually obvious- we remove the content, but if not and it’s just an unpopular opinion/conspiracy theory, the idea is that it should remain and be debated with facts and shut down via discourse rather than a heavy hand.

Also… This is not an all encompassing be-all-end-all rule. It’s nuanced. VERY nuanced. Again, no one is forcing you to have to deal with nonsense. You also have the option to not react to people you believe is trolling in bad faith, and report them if you feel they are brewing the rules.

Hope this clears some of it up.

Well said and agreed.

Agreed.

This shows you clearly don’t understand what was implied by what was said. “Flat earth” is a placeholder term to imply “random nonsense conspiracy theory.” Nothing more.

The idea is that instead of instant removal/ban, we are encouraged to debate and draw out through discussion, the reason why it’s bullshit.

I’ll agree that the change suggested is a bit confusing in it’s wording, but simultaneously, it was also misinterpreted by knee-jerk reactionaries to mean what they needed it to mean to result in the outrage they crave.

As I understand, It was a move intended to inspire discussion rather than having overreaching moderators knee-jerk remove posts/comments. It just wasn’t worded properly.
