That's it.

Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.
Elon's gonna get shot one day
The peace in peaceful is not of the "peace and war" kind. It's of the "peace and quiet" kind.
Important distinction.
The only reason I still have a Reddit account is to leave comments telling people to leave Reddit and join Lemmy. I just find posts on or near the front page that are complaining about Reddit and leave the same comment every time.
Fuck reddit.
Really? Fuck that shit. Good thing I deleted my reddit account. I technically have one that I just use for porn. But I sure as hell am not posting anything with that shit.
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.
I think you're right, but that's even more concerning. A fully fascist take on what is acceptable speech.
The oligarchy owns 90% of social media so it's no surprise
Says the pussy who backed down from Zuckerberg cuz his mom told him to
It's good to be the king.
He doesn't have to be the one actually inflicting the violence on others, but with his power and influence he is capable of great violence by making others carry it out in his name.
Fucking billionaires... :/
God, what an insufferable Nazi cunt.
What do you mean by Elon Musk’s assets should be liquidated?
Also, Reddit and X have very different moderating policies.
He is such a teenager. It's embarrassing.
#stonerthoughts
This should show Americans how billionaires perceive "peaceful protests".
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”
Arguing for the appropriation of billionaires' assets is not violence.
But it hurts their feelings 😢
oh no! Anyway...
This feeds into the right-wing fantasy that they're super tough warriors. You see a lot of literature and fictional TV aimed in this direction.
It's kind of like the white savior complex but instead of saving some victimized minority, they're saving weaker and more helpless individuals in their own society. But all the military hero returns home and confronts nasty biker gang or evil drug dealers and kicks their ass without when trying. It all reinforced their world view.
That makes no sense. You can totally call yourself peaceful if you are peaceful.
Who doesn't want to be harmless? Who would want to cause harm????
You're just not alpha enough to understand. Real men beat their wives
Oh fucking hell he's a megalomaniac he's awful!!! Horrible man. How the fuck can reddit justify this shit? How has EVERYONE not left?
Elon isn't capable of anything resembling violence. He's a skinny fat pussy.
That’s gotta be the stupidest thing I’ve ever read.
The crux of fascism is making your base paranoid. Make them believe all their murder is done out of self defense. If they would not kill all those other people, others would kill them.
The perfect example is the paranoid ethnostate in the middle east.
Sorry, but I agree with this one. Not the "great" violence part, but yeah. If you are not capable of inflicting violence, you are not making a choice. You have no choice but to be harmless.
We used to say this a good bit in r/liberalgunowners, along the lines of, "I am a peaceful man, but that does not make me harmless." You would have a hella time pushing me hard enough to draw, but I have the choice if it comes to that.
This notion is exactly why conservatives think they can run roughshod over us. They see us as harmless little twerps that couldn't fight back if our life depended on it.
I get that and don’t disagree, it’s just the way it’s worded. Reads as if a 12 year old wrote it lol
Also the: ☝️🤓 Important distinction
What a great fat wet lettuce of a human. He's only capable of paying other people to do his dirty work.
when did Lemmy become the "I got banned from reddit" frontpage?
ffs people, STOP GOING THERE. Stop thinking about it. It's a shithole url. Get over it.
This sub, the one you are currently participating in by commenting on it, is titled “Reddit”…
I'll be a bit pedantic and say that this is a community not a subreddit, since we're, y'know, not on reddit.
Apart from all the other bullshit rightfully called out below, this makes an illogical implication. Being the smart autistic superbrain Melon claims to be, it's surprising he doesn't see that. Or maybe not, because in reality he's just a sad ass who is too scared of just going to therapy.
If: Not being capable of violence => Not being able to call yourself peaceful
Then: Being able to call yourself peaceful => Being capable of violence
But not: Being capable of violence => Being able to call yourself peaceful
