    Moralists don’t really have beliefs. Sometimes they stumble on one, like on a child’s toy left on the carpet. The toy must be put away immediately. And the child reprimanded. Centrism isn’t change – not even incremental change. It is control. Over yourself and the world. Exercise it. Look up at the sky, at the dark shapes of Coalition airships hanging there. Ask yourself: is there something sinister in moralism? And then answer: no. God is in his heaven. Everything is normal on Earth.

    Levels of Liberalism even Mao couldn’t comprehend.

    lol, people there threw a massive hissy fit when I criticized them for being federated with Nazi and lolicon instances, yet whining about the tankies instead. Now they’ve finally defederated from exploding-heads after realizing that maybe these Nazis are Nazis, while Hexbear gets pre-eminently blocked because of this statement full of spurious reasoning.

    “Creating those kind of fringe echo-chamer instances is how we end up with toxic and extreme groups like SRS”

      SRS did a massive amount of good on that shithole website. Before SRS it had jailbait, a hundred different pedo subreddits, and gamers still said “haha get raped!” when they killed opponents. It had a significant impact on site culture.

      This dumbass obviously opposes the positive changes it brought about though.

            It was the original boogeyman of reddit, SRS stood for shit reddit says and all it did was basically link to racist/sexist/lgbt-phobic posts on other subreddits and people would make fun of the redditor in the comments. This mocking would break their psyche and was an unforgivable sin to all the fragile redditors and they would regularly come into SRS to argue and get mocked even harder. It had a similar vibe to r/chapotraphouse long before that existed but with less of an explicit leftist slant because reddit-logo was just that horrible, even libs could dunk on how shitty they were. It’s hilarious that even though its basically a ghost town now this guy is still clutching his pearls about it all these years later.

    I was in the process of submitting revisions to the statement on Russia but the part that they took offense to wasn’t any of the problems I saw with it, but rather the one part I didn’t change that was just like “NATO and the IMF are bad,” where I was like, “Perfect, no notes.” picard picard-annoyed

    “Pushing your beliefs” is inherently against the rules, if those beliefs are critical of NATO. Lemmy.world is explicitly a pro-NATO community where criticism of the organization gets you banned. What a mess.
