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 canāt say youāre against disinfo if youāre knowing and intentionally promulgating it and abetting its usage. They also didnāt even remove the Reddit watermark.
This is why I donāt assign identities unto myself, because you criticize one action done wrong by leaders of an ideology or movement and bam! youāre shut out of it completely. Theyāve lost the aid of an ally and progress is impeded by being shorted a participant trying to correct the course.
Thatās not activitypubās fault.
You can block the instance in settings, or block individual communities.
Iām not blaming AP, just refuting the absurd brigade claim.
I donāt think its brigading, because lemmy is small enough for most people to encounter the same posts.
I do think its better to just block people and comms which use ai.
Itās possible that not all of it is brigading but when 10 or 12 accounts with no content at all or content thatās old as heck come to start downvoting I think itās safe to call that an act of brigading, which is my Iām saying there is brigading.
Yeah, though those could just be lurkers.
Thank you for acknowledging that. And you may be right about blocking.
I just think itās difficult for folks, me included, to merely hide what they consider to be an issue. Theyāre not comparable, but if I saw a self-proclaimed leftist community sharing anti-union propaganda, Iād rather discuss it. Iām not claiming thatās the healthiest mindset or the correct one, but I donāt think itās entirely without reason.
These situations, wherein a group broadcasts an idea to everybody, then silences dissent because itās ātheir turf, their rules,ā never seemed fair. Shields like ātheyāre trollingā, āneoliberalsā, ābotsā and ābrigadingā intensify the issueāsome mod comments read like a mirror of r/conservative. Why does the blame lie solely with one side, when the subject is controversial and sharing it with everyone was also a deliberate choice?
There was talk of an option, for communities, to self-exclude from āallā feeds. Wonder if such features could be a better solution, here. Iāll refrain from talking AI and ethics in db0 in the future, but I feel like they should do better, themselves.
