Jokes on them. Facebook in Australia is an absolute cesspool.

And nobody from Facebook is doing anything with the reports

So, the only application for this data is to build a bot which acts like an asshole and make photos of cars which assholes own.

That doesn’t mean she supports it. There’s evidence that even with Biden there were things potentially happening in the background to try to stop it. https://www.abc.net.au/news/2024-06-03/israel-accepts-joe-bidens-gaza-ceasefire-proposal/103926614

Trump literally asked Russia publicly to find dirt on Hillary to win and praises dictators constantly.Kamala isn’t praising dictators.

If Trump went to court for every crime he committed, he would have no time to campaign. In fact, with lawsuits they likely have to compress them and limit the contents to the worst offenders to facilitate their processing time.

You haven’t heard even a small number of crimes that Mafia don has committed. But a guy who goes and laughs on social media when one of his followers attacked pelosis husband obviously supports assault.

So just to clarify, Trump = actual criminal who uses violence to gain power Kamala = normal person

You’re also assuming that Trump will end the war. He won’t. He’ll do what he normally does and just shout at both parties. If he gets forced out of office, he’ll sabotage the next president

Walz in particular is ex military and I seriously doubt he is pro war either. There might be stuff happening in the background again we don’t know about (Trump will brag in public about every single thing he does, but sometimes negotiations require the opposite). It’s similar to criminal investigations which take a long time

I keep seeing the same bozos say they’re the same

One is literally a criminal rapist who has made tens of thousands of public lies, doesn’t pay contractors, and said obvious non sensensical stuff during covid leading to mass deaths and whose own ex staff warns he is an asshole.

The other is a normal person you could probably eat lunch with. She’s absolutely normal.

You just join another instance like normal.

But having left beehaw recently, I would say I can’t really see any good reasons to leave lemmy world.

I only left beehaw because one admin I felt was overlooking crap people in one specific minority and it was slowly turning into a echo chamber. Ironically, it turns out the crap person in particular coloured my perception of other lemmy servers ages ago to make it seem like other lemmy servers were a cesspool (they are not)

It was also surprisingly unstable compared to lemmy world servers

I haven’t seen any actions by lemmy world admins however which would encourage leaving.

In fact, you can access mostly the same posts from different servers here anyway because servers are mostly federated

And about 20 in perl. But the return trip is 300 years

She’s a huge bigot…

I don’t think you can categorise into right or left. I know right-wing people who are gay as an example (they’re conservative, but they’re not MAGA/Trump/nazi’s).

It’s really better to categorise as “people who give about making things better for the community”, and “people who don’t”.

JK Rowling is the latter. Trump is the latter too. In general though, in US and Australia, extreme right wing people seem to fit more into the latter… Minorities can also fit into either category too quite easily

So… Two things…

I have a funny story regarding modding on Lemmy…

Ran into two bad mods the other day (related to the same convo). But, gist of the story is, I got into a discussion with someone who heavily exaggerated and claimed I wanted to kill an entire minority, as I only 80% agreed with them (they were basically demanding government benefits which would cause a huge issue if applied to other communities which was required to be fair , and they couldn’t even set the parameters of the rules for it). A Beehaw admin freely ignored the outrageous comment that the other mod made, and branded me instantly as “starting a fight”.

As I was deleting my Beehaw account, I noticed that same non-beehaw mod had actually been in a thread I had also posted in a month ago which was discussing more conservative people moving to Lemmy (I’m VERY left). They basically said in the discussion they were constantly needing to remove “conservative” and people who were trying to start fights . This was ironic because doing the huge exaggeration thing and calling someone a derogatory name is basically out of the conservative playbook (and they were certainly the only ones fighting), and anywhere else it would be seen as rediculous behavior.

People in that thread though also made it sound like the rest of Lemmy was a cesspool. This colored my opinion of Lemmy and I realised my opinion came from that same thread, so, I didn’t want to leave beehaw, and only took the leap recently.

I was actually hugely surprised by Lemmy World. Everyone is a lot more respectful here than I expected and I think its even a better safe space than beehaw, where . There are a lot more connected instances, so the bad actors get drowned out easier, and it promotes a healthy discussion, where science is encouraged. We might not all agree, but it’s a lot easier to avoid echo chambers. The science memes community is also AWESOME on Lemmy and beats anywhere else imho.

Reddit on the other hand, doesn’t seem to have good moderation (most mods are unpaid and the power hungry ones will try to manage hundreds of communities). It has degraded into people fishing for karma , and has a higher percentage of abusive people who also likely abuse others on facebook (many aussie subs have degraded into far right wing where science is discouraged and people purposely try to push an echo chamber). THere are a lot of good mods here though, and if you don’t like a community, you can block it and find another one… The cool part is that I suspect over time, this will eventually keep mods honest.

The biggest problem is that Reddit SHOULD have acted on FatPeopleHate, the Donald and Female Dating strategy. They didn’t act on jailbait either apparently. Those people established themselves permanently into the community, grew to some of the largest communities and the moment mods left, many of those same communities likely did a power grab too. Reddit staff don’t really care either, and since the people running the servers don’t seemingly care (similar to facebook), it simply encourages them

Just to play devils advocate though… awesome people and awesome country.

I’ve always wondered if I’d rather live there and be poor honestly than live here in Australia (which is basically at least 50% redneck at this point)

They’ve also started using a lot of channel names which are totally unrelated to politics. No huge surprise of course that it’s the right wing doing stuff like this…

Now . After they’re done , they should write one for perl and brainf**k

Pretty much. It wouldn’t surprise me if long term Elon tries to run for office too as a right wing candidate now that Trump has shown to him that you can abuse the office for unethical reasons.

As his business drops, it will increasingly become profitable for him to push for no workers rights and increasingly worse consumer rights

I love that he managed to help push EVs mainstream, but he’s now a detriment

Yep… People use Tesla as an example of EVs failing

It’s not falling because of EVs, it’s falling because the guy running it is so dodgy that consumers can’t be sure they’re not going to fuck things up in the future.

It also doesn’t help that Elon lies about things he doesn’t need to (even stupid things like calling the cave diver a pedo) and that makes potential consumers wonder what else he’s lying about.
