Which is why I’m here!
I just created a Lemmy account because of this stupid policy. Republicans/Conservatives can spew all manner of hate without consequence and we upvote “Elbows Up” (a hockey term BTW) and we get banned? Screw that.
Friendly reminder that almost all news media outlets and social media platforms are owned by a handful of extremely wealthy individuals and they are in full control of the algorithm that feeds you content, so you’ll likely never see anything that is critical of them or advocates for them to have less power or influence than they do.
This is the 2025 version of “The revolution won’t be televised”.
Yeah, that’s why I’m here now. That site has just been getting shittier and shittier.
Exactly the same. I got critical of the right and all of a sudden banned for violence ? After 12 years ? And me NEVER calling for harm to anything.
But I got hyper critical of the right and that’s what did it.
Reddit is and has failed.
Yeah, i got banned because i literally told someone to fix their bot that had spammed me for years!!!
And now here I am.
Everybody upvote Luigi content! Get banned! Leave reddit! Reddit crumbles! Fuck reddit! Go Luigi! Lemmy grows! Centralized social media dies! I eat a burrito. That last one wasn’t really on topic, but it’s happening anyways! I’m hungry.
So if the content is banned how are people up voting it?
Finally made the jump. Reddit is a right-wing cesspool of censorship.
Left because any form of critique gets you a ban. People rather look away from problems so they can say they don’t see any.
And that is why I’m here now. Hello fellow travellers!
I actually came here today because of this! So far so happy with Lemmy
It’s so awesome seeing all these new people here bailing from reddit. Welcome!
I barely used Reddit - good riddance, this is what spurred me to sign up here. The right wing infestation of social media is nasty.
Reddit; hear no evil, see no evil, upvote no evil
