Late Stage Capitalism
A place for for news, discussion, memes, and links criticizing capitalism and advancing viewpoints that challenge liberal capitalist ideology. That means any support for any liberal capitalist political party (like the Democrats) is strictly prohibited.
A zero-tolerance policy for bigotry of any kind. Failure to respect this will result in a ban.
RULES:
1 Understand the left starts at anti-capitalism.
2 No Trolling
3 No capitalist apologia, anti-socialism, or liberalism, liberalism is in direct conflict with the left. Support for capitalism or for the parties or ideologies that uphold it are not welcome or tolerated.
4 No imperialism, conservatism, reactionism or Zionism, lessor evil rhetoric. Dismissing 3rd party votes or 'wasted votes on 3rd party' is lessor evil rhetoric.
5 No bigotry, no racism, sexism, antisemitism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, or any type of prejudice.
6 Be civil in comments and no accusations of being a bot, 'paid by Putin,' Tankie, etc. This includes instance shaming.

Normally I wouldnt do some thing like this but those opposed to holding them accountable should be called out too
Or perhaps they oppose X, starting a witch hunt under a twitter/X post sounds stupid
Can't believe that I'm defending downvoters. But downvoting does not always mean that they disagree with the message of a post. Some even just use it as a "mark as read" button, some fat fingered, some might think it doesn't belong in this community.
They are free to argue in the comments if they don't agree with the post itself, otherwise it's fine to assume that they are crypto-zionists and shame them.
I habitually downvote anything referring to the site formerly known as twitter, especially if it's a pointless screenshot. Glad I read a bit further into this one if that is your attitude.
Why is the screenshot even nessecary? Does somebody think that posting on X is somehow more legitimate than anywhere else?
I also downvote about 10 posts a day entirely by accident because the downvote button on my screen is about 4 pixels and rests in the natural scroll area.
My point is that a downvote probably doesn't always mean what you think it does.
Since the list has grown
Get your ass here and update the list.
Duplicate. Doesnt look like your update took
One more name at the bottom
Yeah but it’s cut off and we can’t see it.
At the bottom of the downvotes part, not the bottom of the image.... obviously.
Did you click the full image? It shows the 8 downvotes and several up votes
Shoutout to you, OP. More users should be shamed. Would love to see these genocide defending twats defend their votes.
what did they do ?
How did u get that list?
lemvotes
they're a mod
It's public information, no need to be a mod
Votes are technically public, so technically there’s nothing wrong with this, but doxxing voters still feels slimey.
Doxxing implies I provided personally identifying info like home addresses, work locations, telephone numbers, other social media accounts, etc.
You know what I meant. Encouraging brigading, to be more precise.
Lemmy keeps that info hidden by default for a reason.
Perhaps zionists should be brigaded.
Even then, I think it’s a bad precedent. It makes Lemmy feel toxic.
I don’t think votes should be private (as that leads to all sorts of complications, especially with fighting bots/spammers), but I think Lemmy/Piefed should encourage a culture of not highlighting it, unless it’s strictly for a spammer or some other objective rules violation.
So you don't know brigading is either?
Lemmy hides it by default. They hide it for a reason, whatever you want to define that reason as.
It feels icky to work around by posting the list of downvotes.
I’ll debate over that, but I’m not going to beat around the bush or start a snarky semantics argument over a linguistic error I made.
Well, that's an important distinction
Yeah. I made a linguistic error.
Point is, it feels icky, which is why it’s hidden by default.
The likely chilling effects are obvious to me. Who’d want to (intentionally or accidentally) tap a button on this site when someone’s gonna post your username for it?
Punishment for using default features is concerning for a platform. If we needed thought police they’d probably make downvotes more visible to us.
We can already keep bad content in its place by downvoting it ourselves. We can use logs to investigate brigaging and stalking-to-downvote and suspicious mass upvoting, etc. We owe other users restraint if we want them to come back.
Agreed. This is what I was getting at, and you put better than I could.
Noticed good behavior on my comment. When a user (whose name I do not need to be told by a third party) believed I didn’t add to the discussion, they used a platform voting feature as intended.
That isn't Doxxing.
Do you even know what Doxxing is?
Calling users out for defending genocide isn't doxxing. Finding out their real names, addresses, places of work, etc..
That's Doxxing.
