The platform’s content policy bans violence.

[–] blight@hexbear.net 20 points 2 months ago (1 children)

um sorry i don’t even know what you’re talking about. what bad things!? they are insurance companies providing a service for a fee like and other company. nothing strange about it

[–] Graves@hexbear.net 2 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

~~Except they just don’t have to provide the service if they don’t want to. So no, not like any other company?~~

Edit: wait you were being sarcastic weren’t you

Reddit bans posting ~~UnitedHealthcare shooter’s~~ the manifesto the cops planted on their patsy

[–] Ildsaye@hexbear.net 25 points 2 months ago

Don't know how so many people made their way here without internalizing that imperial state security forces and their stenographers don't get the benefit of the doubt fidel-wut

How much you wanna bet you can find the Unibomber's manifesto or Mein Kampf somewhere on that site? And when you do, how much you wanna bet it's heavily upvoted and was posted on there years ago?

Pretty sure they also have the Columbine shooters' levels for Doom on there, too.

[–] vk6flab@lemmy.radio 24 points 2 months ago (2 children)

You mean like it is around here?

[–] OrionsMask@hexbear.net 37 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (3 children)

The difference is that Reddit is either actively pushing or is being pressured to push the ruling class' narrative that killing a CEO is bad. No one here is saying that, they have issues with the shooter because of who he allegedly is, not what he did.

[–] FartGunBuster@hexbear.net 22 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

As usual the mods made a unilateral decision without consulting the userbase, with vague criteria as to what will result in a ban(seems almost arbitrary based on individual mods from a scan of the log)

Obviously I'm not comparing the admin and mods here to reddit ones, I appreciate their labour in making my leftist shitposting site run smoothly and proactively crack down on bigotry, but honestly I don't think the phrase 'power tripping' is outside the realm of this conversation

This is nominally supposed to be leftist shitpositing site run with at least some democratic participation from the userbase, but time and time again the discorderati play at 'vanguard party' leading to long term users(obviously talking about those without chudy post histories) leaving and growth dyeing and struggle session that just sow animosity with rarely an actual improvement in site culture

[–] vk6flab@lemmy.radio 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I'm not sure which moderators and user base you're talking about.

[–] FartGunBuster@hexbear.net 6 points 2 months ago

hexbear's, didn't realise you were from another instance soz

[–] Dessa@hexbear.net 11 points 2 months ago

The effect is the same. Mods make vague threats and people are afraid to talk about the subject.

[–] vk6flab@lemmy.radio 6 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Driving the moderator behaviour here is the fear of being sued whilst operating a social media platform, which is the risk you run when you host an instance in the fediverse.

[–] Dessa@hexbear.net 5 points 2 months ago (1 children)

If that's the case, then the moderators should communicate that instead of keeping reasoning hidden from the public

[–] invalidusernamelol@hexbear.net 7 points 2 months ago

They're from another instance, AFAIK our mods don't care about that aspect, and only care about limiting critical support for possible fascists.

[–] DerRedMax@hexbear.net 2 points 2 months ago

Sued? By who?
