I hope this is okay, we were discussing in this thread (https://feddit.org/post/2379333/1721964 ) a potential community for Fediverse memes, I guess this might be the closest as it documents somehow what happened in the drama?
I’m the super paranoid guy about all of this stuff and this exact same thing occurred to me
Why are there a few different changes to sub and site policy connected with the concept of “misinformation”, but somehow skirting around the type of misinformation which it seems is the most pressing issue by far? I.e. accounts which are devoted to posting misinformation?
Honestly I thought the vegan cat food thing was handled semi ok. But surely that’s not the more pressing thing, to justify big team meetings and huge changes to policy and writing misinformation stuff into the legal side and user agreement.
Right?
You’re spot on, I think. There are several accounts entirely devoted to pushing agendas in bad faith that go unbanned, yet this?
Hurr hurr vegans are an easy target, I get it. In fact, I enjoy making fun of them as much as anyone else.
It’s actually blowing my mind that so many people actually seem completely illiterate and keep bringing up the vegan thing instead of looking at the real issue: LW mods admins doing whatever they want, then changing the rules to justify their behavior, then today releasing a nothingburger statement patting themselves on the back about the whole thing.
I get that they don’t want to fire someone over a one time issue, but maybe tell the guy to stfu and just work on coding things instead of interacting with the community?
As someone who has fucked up similarly before in a different context, both of those things happened. I got put in my place, we agreed I was going to adjust my attitude, ate my warning, and the outward conversation was that the problem was resolved and we’d work on being better in the future.
I like the irony of this comment being downvoted to the bottom of the thread while people are talking about veganism on the top comment.
Nah, thats offensive saying only white people care about animals when in reality veganism is found all around the world. Black people in the United States are the fastest growing vegan demographic in that country.
Oh my god, tell us all you don’t know how to read without telling us you don’t know how to read. Seriously, what the actual fuck are you even talking about, and who are you even talking to?
explain why cats nibble house plants then
checkmate atheists
Because it helps to move fur balls through the digestion system
yahtzee ummm monotheists?
Interesting to see 10 downvotes for 27 upvotes, seems like people want to have that debate again.
Sorry… What?
Choose whichever you want to find the oldest one
About attention whoring, isn’t that the point of this community to discuss about drama?
Also surprised by the aggressivity
Bro the fediverse isn’t Pokemon you don’t have to catch your username on every instance
The only thing that we can confirm, is that you are the account you are currently posting on.
It is very easy to impersonate someone in the Fediverse.
![[Meme] Maybe the discussion will be different this time compared to the ten others? (Edit: obligate, not mandate)(i.imgflip.com)](https://i.imgflip.com/920tpl.jpg){kind=link}
