Waiting for Spez to weigh in with his typical subtlety and even-handedness… 🍿
THATS what spez looks like??? I was expecting some corporate looking lawyer type face. This is more like that incel who repulsed girls in high school, and is now in his 40s…but still very much the same person.
Such a punchable face.

Don’t forget that he used to be a moderator of r/jailbait
TIL… what a fucking douche
Dude, read about the guy. He is such a massive fucking chode.

He looks like a greedy little pig boy
He’s got lifeless eyes, black eyes, like a doll’s eyes. When he comes at you it doesn’t seem to be livin’… until he bites you, and those black eyes roll over white.
He looks like Zuckerberg fucked Ellen DeGeneres.
This is what my eyes will see from this day forward.

They were quoting Jaws.
I’m sure there’s other stuff for you to be offended about though.
Sorry, I wasn’t aware it was a reference to jaws.
I’ll retract my previous comment then.
Thanks for pointing it out :)
Please don’t insult pigs by comparing them to that cunt.
And start banning mods who don’t support Musk and Nazism, wholeheartedly.
Even wearing super cyclical goggles, it doesn’t make sense for reddit to intervene here. Twitter is a competitor, why would they want to encourage people to link to a competitor?
cyclical goggles
The goggles, they keep spinning!
If they have a data sharing agreement, I can think of a few rea$on$.
legacy social media
Remember last time Redditor’s protested only to cave so they could keep being mods? Pepperidge Farm remembers.
I remember and that’s why I’m here reading your comment 🫡
I was the founder of r/TIHI in a past life and u/spez removed all of us moderators because we weren‘t opening the sub as part of our protest.
I them requested them to take down the subs title picture and logo which I created and they didn‘t even bother.
Better to have you here mate.
Thank you for your service
A redditor of quality, you have my respect.
Yeah let’s see if they keep this up. In a few weeks they’ll cave in and say, “Well we want to keep people informed”.
Does Reddit have some sort of contract with X with regards to sharing of content? I know they have one with OpenAI.
This is a bit different from before. They aren’t privating the subs this time, they’re just doing their unpaid full time job by disallowing posts with untrusted sources.
why do they still show these kind of pictures of him. for me there is only one picture of him to show from now on
Oh yes for the totally unproblematic picture taken at the inauguration, and since it’s so unproblematic he can’t possibly have an issue with it being posted.
Although a solid second favorite is him in a punk leather jacket. Mostly because he hates it.
I would also accept the picture of him leaping 2" off the ground with both arms up and his belly showing.
I still enjoy the edgy liberty pic and the balding one.
Reddit users are about to get reminded that its not their platform to make rules
That was my guess as well, but so far, as reported to Ars Technica, they don’t intend to intervene
I give them a week before they change their minds
Wait until some Trump loyalist brownshirt calls pigboy.
Why would the owners of Reddit care about twitter?
It’s either the power mods or the admins who decide how content gets censored on reddit. Which one is worse?
He’s going to buy reddit now. Lmao.
Can’t musk simply state that naziism is wrong and hitler was a very bad guy?
That’s right of coarse he can!
HHHMMM!
Why?!
Le epic 14 y/o troll mAStEr mOvE was doing the worst nonverbal political thing one can do and getting away with it without apologizing.
The centrists accept it might have been inadvertent. He’d never have the lefties anyway and the far right will, of course, absolutely love it. It’s the kind of thing a kid in shoes of power might dream up and run by the team and all have fits of laughter: “they can’t prove anything if you don’t say anything!”

Nice way to commemorate the Jan 6ers’ prison release. And great distraction, as it must be.
No I mean if you disagree with what nazis did, you will never have a problem saying exactly that. Whether it’s to clear up a misunderstanding or for any other reason. Rejecting nazis has nothing to do with being edgy or being right or wrong in a debate. It’s a simple idea that can be said at anytime.
That would be good for Lemmy.
Don’t do it as a “protest.” Do it as the new norm. Xitter has no worth and should be relegated to the porta-potty of time.
Aaaand here come the admins to relentlessly bully any mods involved in this into submission. Because the reddit admins are pathetic, greedy little pig boys who don’t give a flying shit about their users or moderators.
Lemmy instances should follow suit.
I’ve thought that since they started locking almost everything behind a login
I’m surprised it hasn’t happened yet
Dbzer0 took a vote and will block it from their instance I believe
I just added it as a rule for the communities I moderate. I also set my Bluesky feeds to filter out X links.
Disagree, but I also almost never follow them anyway. I pretty much only follow a link if I think it’s to a first party article or something.
De-centralized as long as you go with what I say…
How can you have been on Lemmy longer than me yet have such a fundamental misunderstanding of centralized/non-federated vs decentralized/federated?
Here we go. If let’s just say all the instances came together and did the same ban because some hivemind mentality had taken over. It would metaphorically be centralized again. The chances of that happening-probably zero.
I’m not sure you understand what decentralized means.
You’re perfectly free to go on Lemmy instances that don’t have that as a rule.
Oh that’ll fucking show em

Some Lemmy communities already have.
I’ve seen that the Playstation and Nintendo communities have both banned it recently.
Twitter probably benefits from people being redirected to their site from repostings with how it has become the go to source for news like sports, so it might. Won’t hurt Elon financially but less people being exposed to the content there that Elon wants to push that don’t actively use Twitter is a good thing even if it is only a few.
Even small moves is a good thing with how over the years sports and game submissions have become increasingly more Twitter submissions.
Twitters value has already been going down the shitter thanks to shit leadership, this is just another nail.
The less its posts are shared, the less its relevance is to the world. I can’t see that as a bad thing. It always baffled me how outsize Twitter’s influence was on world events/news while having 1/5th the active userbase of Facebook.
Meta, Twitter, now tiktok. BLATANTLY obvious coordination to propagandize social media.
Fuck then all, damn then to hell, scourge of modern society.
I used to spend time on Facebook catching up with friends and family. That was way back in like 2010. I can’t stand that platform now. It’s all AI trash and random reels. I don’t even know why I’m getting some of these reels but I suspect they are sharing data with other platforms like YT. I miss the internet of the 2000s…
They all share data or buy it. Talk about some random shit near your phone they know. I do it for giggles now. Not sure what works as a trigger it but I’ve made my own advertising for workout equipment, dj tables, etc without searching any of it.
Oh yeah. I get that too. I’m sitting here talking about the most random shit with my cousins and bam! Facebook got an ad for that.
Those are rookie numbers!
Liberals are just sheep. They believe whatever the media tells them.
That projection.
My first reaction when seeing the salute was ” oh come on, it can’t be that bad… oh it’s way worse than I thought”

As they mindlessly repeat whatever they just saw linked on “onlyrealpatriots.info.biz” from Facebook.
I laughed when he did it twice as if just to emphasize the first one wasn’t a mistake.
Supports far right movement in Germany, says they are the only way to fix Germany.
Agrees with Jewish people being anti white- "“Jewish communties [sic] have been pushing the exact kind of dialectical hatred against whites that they claim to want people to stop using against them.”
The billionaire owner and CTO of X, formerly Twitter, responded the same evening: “You have said the actual truth.”"
Does NAZI salutes on a national platform.
People in denial: “I’m sure it was a mistake”
I don’t think it was a mistake, I think it was more, “lol, let’s see what the media says about that!!” They made a spectacle of him jumping on stage at the campaign trail, so I truly think he did that to troll a bit.
He’s a real life Bruce Wayne, but without the Batman bit.
I mean if you only saw and read Reddit during the last election campaign, you’d be ABSOLUTELY sure at the first half of the campaign that Biden was going to win, might as well don’t have an election at that point
And then, after Kamala got into the campaign, again, if you only saw and read Reddit, you’d be, again, ABSOLUTELY sure that she would win, it wasn’t even a contest.
If reality were downvotes, upvotes or massive bans to users posting against the thread zeitgeist, yeah sure, that would be what happened.
Hard to accept reality after that harsh wakeup call
Yeah, fuck Reddit. They are part of the problem.
Fuck Reddit and X
tbf it’s the users of Reddit and they’re doing the right thing
They are still on reddit
To befair the only lemmy community I’ve seen thats blocked X is /c/Playstation.
So reddit still has 49 more than we do.
I think vegan did. Not sure if thats on .world though

or [email protected]Edit: I am still confused about linking, sorry.
In fairness I don’t see a lot of Twitter links in general here with or without a ban. Most people use xcancel when they have to and have no other option.
IMO a ban here would be more symbolic than effective.
