Scary that they banned WhitePeopleTwitter, a sub with 3M+ subscribers.
Was that even a sub critical of Elon? I haven't been on Reddit since the API migration, but I remember that sub just being a joke response to BlackPeopleTwitter, which mostly just reposted funny tweets.
Several individuals on that sub were making death threats towards individuals in government. The mods either supported or ignored them, so a temp ban needed to be put in place.
Is Elon Musk actually an "individual in our government" though?
Embrace our superior locally raised !whitepeopletwitter@sh.itjust.works, or the more inclusive and not twitter-centric !microblogmemes@lemmy.world
As long as it doesn't share the same trash mods from reddit, sure!
Ironically most of those 3 million are the "right" color to them. Can't take the heat once you start burning down the kitchen I guess.
It's not when they were calling for interns of government agencies death. What's scary is no one here is looking for context.
I've been out of the loop with this one. Please, by all means, give some context. Do I read you right that info about elons minions was doxed?
You are not asking in good faith given you chose to address the victims as "elons minions" and not as real people.
I can think they are his minions who are helping him carry out a coup and still condem death threat against them. Why does everything have to be black and white these days?
Anyhow, you are not obligated to answer me. I'll read into it or won't, untill then I just won't have any opinion on this matter.
Edit: And you can be somebody's minion (as in tool used to aquire your goals) and still be a human. I don't see that as mutually exclusive.
Plenty of people in this comment section aren't condemning death threats and are advocating to kill them.
Biases are subtle and the way you address those mentioned leads me to believe you'd completely ignore any information given. Your hesitation to self-inform does the same. Have a nice one.
Bit funny how like two thirds of our conversation happened in your head. What ever. Have a nice one too.
Minions are people...
