What a self-important moron. “I must be the arbiter of what is good and proper and what goes too far!someonehas to!” yeah they call it curating your own fucking block list you fuckwit, doesn’t mean you should be silently “curating” anyone else’s. “But think of the poor normies who are lazy!” then they can go back to reddit. Lemmy will grow, and has been growing, just fine without your “help”. “If you don’t like it, don’t use it!” Aha, finally, something I think the entire fediverse (save for his own little fiefdom) will be likely to agree on.
That entire post is indicative of someone too stupid to read the room and too stubborn to leave it.
I also enjoy that he basically says he’s working on blocking all the dregs of society who cannot exist anywhere else online, as if to imply bans from platforms like reddit are typically just, and he also conveniently ignores that he likely was banned from Reddit in the first place, unless he left because he didn’t like the same shitty culture that leads to banning people with non-fascist viewpoints.
He’s obsessed with this idea of bringing “normal” people here and shielding them from anyone with an opinion about anything that fucking matters. Fuck that. I don’t want the same people who have no issues with ice or trump in this space, nor do I want their supporters here. Let those assholes stay on reddit. He’s acting like he’s politically neutral in this way but from what I can tell that’s definitely not the case just due to the vast majority of users here being on the left, if nothing else.
He’s literally sought to neuter what is actually good about the fediverse. By silencing the people who are not okay with the world as it is…
And you know he gets a smug look on his face every time he adds a “toxic” item to his little blocklist. What a douchebag.
Not only that but he goes out of his way to imply you’ll be dragged into the troll pits if you disable the filter. Considering who’s on that block list, his skin must be tissue-thin.
Exactly what I meant by “too stubborn to leave it”. He clearly cannot have his fee-fees hurt or his positions challenged in any way at any time; and I would gently suggest that such a person should not be participating in social media in general, let alone a contentious corner of it like Lemmy. The fact he persists in trying to beat it into something palatable for the most bland of palates, while thoroughly Sisyphean, is genuinely funny – it’s that he feels the need to sneakily impose this on others, though, that takes it from funny and dumb to infuriating, fractally stupid, and malicious behavior.
