Posting here for preservationā€™s sake

Image in removed comment was the attached Palpatine image. Curious to see if the same admin mod would remove these screenshots if I crosspost them to !yepowertrippinbastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com , which they also admin and mod. Would I get a fair trial there or will my dissenting and othersā€™ be silenced?

You canā€™t say youā€™re against disinfo if youā€™re knowing and intentionally promulgating it and abetting its usage. They also didnā€™t even remove the Reddit watermark.

This is why I donā€™t assign identities unto myself, because you criticize one action done wrong by leaders of an ideology or movement and bam! youā€™re shut out of it completely. Theyā€™ve lost the aid of an ally and progress is impeded by being shorted a participant trying to correct the course.

    Have you ever heard the expression ā€œcanā€™t see the forest for the treesā€? I mean I like Marshall McLuhan and all, but if all you are talking about is the medium then youā€™ve kind of missed the whole point of the post, which was the message.

      it is a fine message in itself but i am (probably? never read the book) with your mate marshall on this one, it is contaminated by the medium from the outset and the filtration through bot to man to bot to man has only debased it further

      many top comments on both threads being slop, slop, shit, slop, etc. iā€™ve no love for reddit but i think they have the measure of it

      pro trade union messages produced by anti trade union means are detrimental overall

      still ydi as i said, i know this isnā€™t the instance to whine about gen ai

        It does the community no good to allow anti ai warriors to start brigading every post containing so called ā€œai slopā€. Itā€™s just a new pointless diversion for keyboard warriors to fight over, accomplishing nothing in the process but derailing any meaningful discussion on the content of the OP. There are other ways to fight back against corporate power, such as making access to genAI technology free and open source, like db0s ai horde project.
