Something funny is going on at Lemm.ee. The admin is suddently ban hammer happy too.

That and all the mods removed from here is kinds strange.

Anyone have any word on what's up and why the drastic changes in attitude and all of the sudden bans?

**EDIT: **Actually I think I found the reason: https://lemm.ee/post/55846636/18367529 (!meta@ lemm.ee "It seems some higher level moderation of communities may be required")

Lemm.ee is a bunch of new admins, so it's not longer as friendly to differing opinions as it once was.

Which a bunch of Lemmy Democrats are gonna cheer and advertise about.

Probably a good idea for us to find a new conservative community.

Don't let them silence you, guys. We should just move--not run away. Running away is what they want us to do.

EDIT: I'm not defending Nazi's or Nazi salutes. I didn't see the post and I haven't seen any describe it other than "it was a Nazi salute!" Does anyone want to actually describe the post? What did it say? Was it a meme? Was it Musk? Was it a random pic?

But that’s exactly why you lost the election AND why you all were so surprised that you lost. Because you refuse to pay any attetion to anyone who disagrees with you.

We lost because the Republican party is REALLY good at running fear-based disinformation campaigns and a lot of Americans are not very smart and easily influenced.

We’re not going anywhere.

Buddy, unless you're extremely wealthy, we're all going the same place together, which is down. We can hold hands if you want.

I disagree. I think they totally suck at it. I think the democrats just sucked worse. And many "on-the-fence" folks got tired of Democrats talking down to them and making fun of them just because they weren't 100 percent on board with every dem idea.

And in fact, many democrat strategist have said the same thing since the election and are asking that Democrats lose some of the ego and elitism in order to turn things around the next election. And i agree with them.

Lemmy sure hasn't learned from that mistake tho. I see many on Lemmy just outright making fun of anyone who didn't vote for Harris--even if they voted a third party.

I honestly think you all need to lose another election for you to learn your lesson.

So they voted for an anti-democratic felon rapist who incited and insurrection and illegally attempted to overturn an election because Dems were being mean to them? Wow, they sound stupid as fuck.

even if they voted a third party.

I mean, you have to be pretty goddamn stupid to vote 3rd party in a presidential election. The 3rd party candidate with the most votes was magician Jill Stein, who magically appears right before every election, then disappears again. And she got a whopping HALF OF A SINGLE PERCENT of the total votes cast. So there's literally no way a 3rd party can win, so it's pretty stupid to vote for them when democracy is on the line.

I honestly think you all need to lose another election for you to learn your lesson.

I honestly think you need a much better education than what you have thus far received.

Yet they won the election. So what does that say about the people who lost?
