Weirdly none of the pro-Ukraine subs filled with provable lie after lie after lie are “misinformation”

Yes but their lies come from reddit-approved and state-department-approved “credible sources” whereas direct video and being able to see the ghost of kiev was done with ARMA 3 counts as a “not credible source.”

There’s been a ton of hostility toward gzd on this site, even people celebrating the quarantine in the bigger thread. Whether you agree with the criticisms of gzd or not, it makes sense for them to create their own board.

Plus if most of gzd ends up on lemmygrad hexbear may or may not remain more active.

I did a post shitting on a stupid r/gzd post right before the site got quarantined. Felt bad about it.

They really like some behaviors and opinions that aren’t the like of the main moderation here, so I’d rather them having their space for their things; and when federation finally hits we can share things easier.

Isn’t the whole point of comms to allow for different standards of moderation?

A commitment to let them moderate their own space would go a long way.

I think it’s fine to have hexbear as a left unity space and lemmygrad as ML only, though I hope there’s a lot of overlap like SLS and genzedong

Reddit is literally a fascist website regarding anything political. As socialists get pushed off entirely, our views will become increasingly “outsider” back to how it was in the 00’s while all mainstream “normal and not scary and weird” spaces will continue to foster outright nationalism and the trend we are seeing now of rehabilitating fascists.

The supposed anti-fascist subs are supporting neo-nazis. All of the actual anti-fascist subs will be banned because these are our Nazis and supporting the side killing them is verging on an actual crime. The same tired propaganda tactics from the cold war are very clearly still useful.

First they came for chapos,
but I didn’t speak up cause I listen to no podcasts,

then they came for antiwork
but I didn’t speak up cause I am out of work anyhow,

then they came for genzedong
and there was nowhere left to speak up against anything.

I don’t care for GZ and think its a hub for crankery too frequently but this countdown started as soon as the invasion began since GZ is the only meaningful sub from which dissenting views on Russia and China were emanating (no matter the merit of particular views case by case).

Social media in general is going to generally crack down on dissenting views going forward both in an official capacity and unofgicially through social policing.

Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember… we’re all comrades here.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --
