This is the same kind of thing the 19 year old high school dropout with two kids he doesn’t have custody of posts on Facebook. Like “the devil whispered in my ear you can’t handle the storm and i said i am storm”
"WHITE WHALE!
HOLY GRAIL!"
Something something harpoons? Idk, I haven’t read Moby Dick.
He is the size of a hurricane tbf
I’m a fat boy at 5-11/230lb but I’m construction fat. That guy looks like a trash bag full of mashed potatoes.
That’s exactly who he is trying to appeal to.
We should tie voting rights to child support payments. Would have stopped 45 from gaining office.
Is there a ThePack community or magazine around here? lol

Not much there so get in there and CRANK YER HOG!
People should be leaving Reddit. They are poor stewards of our content for innumerable reasons. Go back to forums. Go to Lemmy. The key thing is that we should not have centralized arbiters of our discussions online.
We can’t let billionaires own the town hall if we plan on having honest conversations. I am glad I finally found this place, and wish I would have left reddit earlier.
Indeed. I deleted my reddit account recently. I like it better here anyways. The pace is slower and the people seem more reasonable here too. My stress levels have decreased significantly since I left Meta and Reddit and that is at once wonderful and scary. Social media is a cancer.
deleted by creator
I think there will be a mass exodus from reddit in the coming years. The site is compromised and the censorship is out of control.
Deleted reddit today, just starting to figure out Lemmy. Could not stand the hive mind anymore
Aye welcome to Lemmy! :) Happy to see you here
I have had a much better time on Lemmy, but I’m kind of the target audience in a few ways, so I’m biased. But I do think less harmful, more productive discussion is more likely to happen on this platform, I feel more comfortable discussing and less likely to be called slurs or called out (rather than called in which is undeniably more effective, and coincidentally feels much more common on Lemmy), and I feel like I’ve actually found folks I could see myself working with in some capacity, such as a project to help others patch up their data vulnerabilities, for a simplified example of an idea I’m considering.
Welcome btw :)
100%
Ironically, what Musk posted is perfectly acceptable ( in and of itself, ignoring the context of the person who is saying it ) since violence or the threat of violence is sometimes necessary to prevent things getting worse. For example, “Ukraine should be helped to defend itself” is a call for violence.
Which is why it’s such a bullshit excuse to ban speech for that reason alone. I got banned for suggesting France might help out the USA by shipping over any surplus guillotines. I’m sure they would have no issue at all if I were enthusiastically advocating genocide. Never mind, I needed a push to make the move to Lemmy ; )
The line is state sponsored violence, generally. Likely with a little bias on what state is on the giving and receiving ends of said violence. Thats the rule at least so far as I can tell, at least.
My ban from reddit was 100% related to calling for the arrest and judicial execution of netenyahu. Which is not an unreasonable thing to say given that he is nothing more than a modern Hitler.
I will take it back. Netenyahu should not be tried at all in any court. But simply tied up, have the charges read against him, and promptly shot through the head at point blank range.
Eastern ex-ukraine should be helped to defend itself from fascist Banderites.
That gets you banned from Reddit, or some mild criticism of the Palestinian genocide.
The vile calls for violence and racist Russophobia on there could stay on there.
Not a peep from the hypocrites then.
Now that the other part of the US regime controls Reddit they suddenly wake up and care about free speech.
Why am I not surprised?
Says the pussy who backed down from Zuckerberg cuz his mom told him to
What a great fat wet lettuce of a human. He’s only capable of paying other people to do his dirty work.
asdfg
that is so much worse 😂
Arguing for the appropriation of billionaires’ assets is not violence.
But it hurts their feelings 😢
Got my ban yesterday for expressing my displeasure with Danielle Smith. Reddit has sold out
My 15 year old account got banned last week, too. On one hand it kinda sucks, but on the other hand it feels good to get out of that site’s echo chamber. Reddit is really circling the drain.
Here’s my new thing.
All the people with critical thinking skills are leaving in droves. Leaving a massive bot farm authoritarian echo chamber in its wake.
As far as they’re concerned we’re the problem and it solved itself.
The quote is not wrong, however, Elon is neither harmless nor peaceful. He’s dangerous and a violent fascist
Because it’s seen as violence to do anything that negatively impacts the wealthy despite their daily economic violence against everyone else in society. This is why they call the Tesla boycott “illegal”.
They’ve also been banning accounts for liking comments about Green Mario doing nothing wrong. It’s about the closest thing to thought crime I’ve ever seen. (PS Green Mario did nothing wrong)
I don’t mean this as an attack at all, but isn’t calling Luigi “Green Mario” a way to comply with the wired reddit cencorship?
We are on Lemmy, you can speak freely here.
Or did something just go over my head?
Also innocent until proven guilty, a lot of people seem to forget that one.
It’s actually pretty likely he’s not the guy. While they have a picture of him from a nearby hostel, the picture from cctv at the scene doesn’t match quite so well.
Im agree, but my gripes stem from the timing of how and when they picked him up. Rolling a nat 1 on disquise in a golden arches hundreds of miles away with all the evidence makes me think one of two things. 1) he isnt the guy, the NYPD needed their pound of flesh and just made it all up or 2) they are sure its him, but are unwilling to explain to the press how they know because big brother shit.
In addition, with the mayor not shutting up about the investigation, that perp walk, and the media shrieking “oh no, he’s hot”, the is no way he is getting an unbiased jury in NYC. (I expect it to be the opposite, but thats the ACAB talking)
Agreed, you can refer to him by name here lol. Or Saint Luigi if you prefer ;)
Whether or not they were being ironic, we HAVE to stop capitulating to corporations deciding how we speak and what we can and can’t talk about. They successfully turned our own social messaging into a justification to block out conversations about issues that are actually affecting us.
(No, to the chud about to cry about being censored for spreading misinformation about vaccines, that doesn’t go against corporate incentives, that goes against reason and knowledge, there’s a difference and if you can’t tell, you will when you get older.)
(PS Green Mario did nothing wrong)
He killed a guy. So he did.
He killed a corpo. So he did nothing wrong.
Fuck the opinions around here are unhinged.
Why did you want that person killed?
Because he was a murderer and he would kill again if he was allowed to live.
So you agree killing is bad?
Google “Paradox of tolerance”.
The framing for this is that murder is bad; however there are exceptions to that. One such exception is that self defense of oneself or self defense of another provides a (morally and legally) justified basis for murder. If someone is trying to murder you or someone else, and you murder that person to prevent this, then you have engaged in self defense, which is justified.
The argument is that there is insufficent evidence to demonstrate that Luigi was the person who committed the murder at issue. However, even if it can be proved that Luigi did in fact commit this murder, the argument is that it was justified as an act of self defense to protect himself/others from being killed by the decedent’s actions. This requires viewing violence as something that is structural and systemic, and not just direct and immediately physical. Under the former approach, Luigi engaged in self defense; under the latter, he did not.
The American legal system generally only recognizes the latter as a valid legal defense. But this is irrelevant to the moral question of whether it was justified; and, even to the legal question, we can ask why our system does not recognize structural violence as criminal violence. The answer to that lies in who writes the laws, or, rather, who pays for the laws to be written. All nations have a ruling class who are the principal beneficiaries of the legal system; the US is no different
See my problem with this argument, is if you’re all so determined for Luigi to have a fair trial to defend the position of self defence, shouldn’t that CEO have had a fair trial rather than be extra judicially killed too?
Elon isn’t capable of anything resembling violence. He’s a skinny fat pussy.
There’s nothing skinny about him. He’s regular fat
I can think of at least one part of Elon that is skinny, but I really don’t want to think about his dick. 🤮
It’s almost like the person who wrote that text in the photo didn’t actually understand what any of the words they were saying meant. Like actually. lol
I’ve been told that musk didn’t come up with that quote himself. I didn’t look further into it, but it’s likely that the person who originally wrote it understood what they were talking about, and musk just thought it sounded cool. Hell, I think it sounds cool, might use it in a villainous monologue or some shit.
Oh he’s just an idiot. It’s a saying I live by so Nazis don’t get to touch it. I wonder how many Tesla’s exist in my town…
The oligarchy owns 90% of social media so it’s no surprise
You’re wording it as if we shouldn’t be outraged anyways.
Be as outraged as you want but at the end of the day social media is a business and they’ve chosen to no longer do business with you.
If anything, be outraged at all the other shit the oligarchy are planning to do.
The faster everyone deletes their Reddit, the better we will be. Fuck Reddit.
I only have one account for porn right now. Made with a temporary email. I won’t shed any tears if i had to delete that one.
You basically posted the same thing on the way in here. Why don’t you go back to Reddit? We don’t need any more unhinged violent tankies.
Thanks for taking time out of your day to comment, lol
