This sounds almost like he’s been paid to denigrate Lemmy in hopes of keeping some of the rapidly declining Reddit population from leaving… It’s clear he’s never actually used Lemmy which is way more left leaning than Reddit honestly

I’m so glad I left the corporate cesspool that Reddit has become

I was permabanned from !politicalmemes@lemmy.world for pointing out (quite rudely, tbf) that some of the accounts had been recycling transparently laughable propaganda. E.g. they had said elsewhere that they were upset that Biden had undone Trump’s insulin price cap, and now they were showing up trotting out some somewhat more subtle talking points (you know the ones…)

I didn’t know the power mod situation is that bad. I already started avoiding r/gamingcirclejerk when I saw them banning users for correcting easily disproven misinformation about the “bad people” they meme about.

The internet is getting weird. It used to be that I only had to worry about alt-right trolls. Now I have to look out for authoritarian fake leftists infiltrating and taking over my spaces. I don’t even care about leftism. I just don’t want to participate in spaces where I could get banned for arguing that communism doesn’t work.

It’s reddit, you get what you get. That’s why the majority of us stopped using it.

Any Reddit super moderator who survived the Rexodus bent the knee to Spez and did not maintain closures. They valued their stance as a moderator over others more than the shit getting pulled. He absolutely would have been present for those meetings and message rooms during that time. Anyone like that is not a friend of the average user of any platform.
