What makes them more important than the regular hostages?

I can’t wait to react to another inflammatory thing on the internet with no information.

I don’t think he heard you. Yell next time.

Of course the number 1 news source broke this story. I read that site everyday in my basement stronghold while wearing my special tin hat.

The first one is definitely a xenomorph

It’s perfectly reasonable to assume you do not understand what you are reading, but please do excuse yourself.

I have no idea what you are saying. I have little doubt you had no idea what you read. End of story.

Still stupid to repeat a word over and over without knowing what it means. Words are important.

If you agree with the article, use war crimes instead. That makes sense. Don’t feed the stupid people.

FYI, the next version of Nexcloud AIO will come with the external transcoder.

The Nation version is click bait garbage. The original was denied both for safety concerns and it simply wasn’t good enough.

What is genocide?

First it has to be genocide for anyone with a brain to care about posts like this.

Genocide is?

Don’t cheapen the word.

Cool story. What are ads?

Idiocy is not exclusive to Reddit. Different Lemmy servers were born based solely on stupidity.

There are too many dimwits who think Lemmy was made so that they can build their echo chambers. So, there is no discourse, just stupid people encouraging stupid people. Anyone that comments otherwise is immediately removed.

Most mods are dumdums. Most are obviously politically and ideologically motivated. It’s their job to prune anything they disagree with, which means they can’t help themselves and ban everyone. Most of the time it’s a complete waste of time to comment in smaller subs. The dumdums have taken hold either by making the subs and controlling them, or by volunteering as mods with no oversight.

See what you did here got me banned from an instance. Copy / pasting the same comment.

No. Admittedly I am having trouble understanding what you wrote but that might highlight part of the problem. Mods who aren’t native English speakers are mods in English subs. They have no idea what they are reading and react randomly.

Also, the random people who volunteer to be mods. They don’t volunteer with good intentions.

So random people can be mods? That’s bananas!

People that get off having mod powers or people that want to push a particular message… 😕

Exactly. You can’t do anything. You are at the mercy of the mods. If they have massive bias for something, the entire sub has massive bias.

It’s more like content steering, yes. But from the perspective of someone that frequents a thread, it’s shadowy. All the content vanishes and remembering the usernames that commented, so I can look up what was removed, is just not practical.

It’s really bizarre and sadly dystopian.
