There's a whooshing noise here.
I upvoted it there, will do here too, thanks for the lotr political meme
Legendary
That's such a shitty community so boot lickey and dumb.
Edit: love the meme and f that dead ceo lol
That community has no idea what it wants to be. Mostly it just drives people away.
“related to a thing that happened in the news and riffing off the least political aspect of that” isn’t going to read as political to 100% of people. im sorry you felt slighted here but i do totally see the mod’s angle.
Class wars aren't political?
that’s not what i said, i said it might not be read as political to 100% of people, especially mods with a very specific vision for their community.
Lemmy.world appears to be ran by the DNC.
r/politicalmemes
Its not a "r/" on lemmy, its a "c/"...
ugh, this is mildlyinfuriating
why is it c/ and not just !mildlyinfuriating@lemmy.world?
c/ is referring to the link
look at the link it shows c/ after your instance's url
For example: lemmy.dbzer0.com/c/piracy
Ah you're right sorry force of habit
LOTR memes would understand.
Removed for political content
I'm laughing too hard at this thank you
yep. ton of hyperactive modding on .world
the silver lining is showing everyone what a shit show that server can be, and forcing content to other instances
The political memes community in particular has silly moderation. My post criticizing the billions in dollars being sent in support of genocide got deleted and when I asked for clarification, I got this explanation (and I quote):
You’re blatant accusing political partition being pro genocide.
This is an opinion.
But I know that no one is PRO genocide. Therefore stating it as such is misinformation. It was removed for this reason alone.
I know that no one is PRO genocide.
... I don't know, I think the people committing genocide might be a bit pro genocide... 🤔
Feel free to post this on !yepowertrippinbastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com
But I know that no one is PRO genocide.
I mean I understand wanting to see the world that way but whole entire societies of people can become genocidal. That is precisely what causes the atrocity of genocides like the palestinian genocide in gaza to grow out of control.
Once the centrists in a society accept the rightwing framing of the ideology of genocide they will treat it as the status quo and resist anyone who threatens it. This is what is so fucking terrifying about blind centrism, the substance doesn't matter at all to the ideology, just tracking the most commonly accepted "facts" which inveitably ends up in centrists bandwagoning behind an authoritarian.
This is the stage of fascism Israel is deep into and the US is not far behind in and it quickly obliterates in you any doubt that people actually can be pro-genocide.
We all have the potential to be, it is our choices and our empathy that give us agency to resist becoming so.
agreed, politicalmemes is a zionist hellscape. I'm sure they're trying to take this place over like they took over reddit.

Wtf how could you possibly miss that this is about the CEO ?
They got it, they're just playing dumb because this is what they want.
Being a CEO isn't a public office, killing them isn't a political act.
Thats the dumbest shit i have heard on here.By that logic going to a protest isnt a political act, which it obviously is.Basically anything that affects or targets a political topic is itself a political act. Donating to a party, posting a meme about a politician, writing an article about climate change, and yes killing the leader of a company while clearly targeting them for their decisions that negatively impacted the public and sparking the biggest public discourse about said industry in decades.
It's a satire site like The Onion so makes sense.
"Murder your enemies" can be a political philosophy. Just not a legal one.
Gandalf did not celebrate Saruman’s death. He still proceeded to depose him, but not in a spirit of celebration.
"Honestly.... I'm glad that.... that wizard guy is... dead"
-- overheard, one of the ents after the battle of Orthanc
Primary source, bro /s
Many others celebrated though, especially at Sauron's.
The king of Rohan seem pretty damn happy with it
Why are you complaining on Lemmy about what happened to you on Reddit? Are you trying to rally support? Do you want people to feel sorry for you? What's your goal here? Honestly, I don't care. I'm just so, so tired of hearing about Reddit on Lemmy.
