Hey, I am not Right. I am anarchist.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 8 hours ago

I think it's even funnier that we hand out labels right at the ticket stand to lemmy and turn around to say that labeling people based on norms is bad.

Someone needs to make a comic, you can't even make this shit up. Sign up for your next stake burning at a server near you.

Do what you want cause a pirate be free, YOU ARE A PIRATE

[–] [email protected] 19 points 14 hours ago

Lol I love that SJW is listed as right wing for not explicitly being anticapitalist. Gave me a good laugh.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 11 hours ago

I'm just here for the paws.

I'm a chill guy, I lowkey don’t give a shit.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 hours ago

Based and not giving a shit pilled.

Was it exploding heads?

If you go to that instance, it's gone. Once everyone defederated from them, I guess it was over. Good. They can keep that shit elsewhere.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 14 hours ago

It was nazi and had fucking loli shit on it. That made LITERALLY every instance defederate. Even the ones that were neutral said fuck you to them.

[–] [email protected] 24 points 19 hours ago (2 children)

Was it exploding heads?

Believe so. Fuck them though, they don't even deserve to have their name written in the meme.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 12 hours ago

There was Wolfballs, which started out as a right-leaning free speech instance, but was obviously quickly overrun by trolls and fascists, so everyone defederated them and the owner decided to shut it down. As a result all the problematic people including the mods from Wolfballs moved to Exploding-Heads, which welcomed them with open arms despite also not being originally a pure right-wing instance. And yeah obviously they got defederated as well then...

I showed up right after the drama with their instance.

What was their deal?

[–] [email protected] 10 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

They were nazis and had a shit ton of loli(pedophilia)

[–] [email protected] 2 points 9 hours ago

Ah, I kinda figured it was some far-right/Nazi junk, but yeah, pedos need to gtfo.

I sense no bias in this meme

[–] [email protected] 28 points 20 hours ago

Lemmy OC? And interesting?! That's rare indeed.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 12 hours ago

poa.st is the nazi instance?

[–] [email protected] 14 points 19 hours ago (2 children)

I suppose the fun starts trying to slot other instances in there.

So reply with an instance and thrash out it's place on the graph.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

SlrPnk.net is halfway between Dbzer0 and “left”.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

Arguably dbzer0 would be a bit further towards the libertarian right, although still in the bottom left corner.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

Would you not consider them to be ancom? (I can’t tell myself)

[–] [email protected] 5 points 14 hours ago (8 children)

No, more like reasonable anarcho-individualists.

Authright - has an Emperor

[–] [email protected] 9 points 18 hours ago

Fair point.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 13 hours ago

Kanye West got a lemmy instance??

[–] [email protected] 17 points 22 hours ago (5 children)

Good attempt!

Where does the "likes data" come from for SJW?

[–] [email protected] 13 points 19 hours ago

At least at the start, the instance was mostly networking and sysadmin nerds. During reddit's APIocalypse, our admin started up the server and put up a detailed post about the hardware, infrastructure and benchmarking everything. Stuff like that is what drew me and many others to this instance.

[–] [email protected] 23 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

Whenever I see the admins post, it's always with charts and details that I don't generally see (or at least, don't generally notice) from other instances.

[–] [email protected] 17 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

For a second there I thought there was a social justice warrior instance.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 21 hours ago* (last edited 21 hours ago) (8 children)

You have to write a paragraph about your chosen Social Justice class at signup. Social Justice Wizard best!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 12 hours ago

I'd rather be a Social Justice Warlock, where do I find my patron?

Excellent! Although you might need to shift LW more fully into the blue if they decide to implement the Flat Earth proposal that they strongly tried to push a month ago, before as you say walking that back in response to the enormous outcry against it. Were they to continue though, that would radically shift the balance of everything across all of Lemmy if all of those community mods gave up and had to find new homes elsewhere.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 20 hours ago (15 children)

Legitimately think that they simply did not think the proposal through. It was pretty nakedly an attempt to push back at radical echo-chamber communities, without understanding that rules cut both ways, and in the process of trying to justify and clarify it without being 'ideological', managed to just highlight how absurd the proposed rule was to begin with.

The two big problems with .world's admins is that they're very much amateurs (which is a hard thing to avoid in our scenario here), and that they, like many centrists, have trouble discerning where their ideology begins and ends. They feel the need to phrase things in 'fair' and non-discriminatory terms, but in doing so, often blunder into self-contradictory positions, because ultimately, discrimination (in the sense of discerning and marking) between views is what all rules are based on. The kind of "The law is the law" attitude that people who are accustomed to following, but not making, law, are prone to. One hopes that a mixture of experience and pushback will improve them, with time.

But yeah, had they implemented that, they'd go more auth and right, and I'd probably be packing up all my comms to go to another instance. Again.

How would that place them in blue and not just yellow?

I dont think you get more freedom of speech when becoming more authoritarian

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

The heckler's veto is not freedom.

There are a lot of groups which coordinate spreading of lies to shout down others and deter others from contributing, firehose of falsehood style, and allowing that does not contribute to free speech. It does not support sharing facts, it doesn't support healthy conversation, it doesn't help anybody learn or discover the truth. Allowing conspiracy theories and nonsense like that is a net negative.

You need moderators who are focused on making sure people feel free to join in good faith.

[–] RandomVideos 1 points 2 hours ago

Does it matter if its a net negative?

Misinformation by the people is not specific to authoritarianism
