In lawsuit, Musk says ads next to antisemitic posts are Media Matters’ fault.

    I’m not subbed here, but I always assumed it was a joke like the name of the community is what other users say.

    Like, I see users on here complain about Musk posts on tech communities and stuff, just as on reddit. So I figured the user who named it did so because everyone was telling them to stop spamming communities with Musk posts.

    So they decided to make a community specifically for that content, and ironically named it that.

    I have no clue if that’s correct… but I’m totally okay with this community existing, as it prevents its content from perpetuating other communities. If you don’t want to see their posts, just block the community.

    It’s dumb and counterintuitive to criticize their community’s existence when it has the content all boxed up an ready for you to block it. Why would you instead want the users here inundating communities you browse with Elon Musk posts?

    I have blocked so many anime, meme, and sports communities I have no interest in, and I don’t see them anymore. I don’t go into the community I don’t enjoy to complain about their content. That’s useless. Just block and move on.

      Oh, it’s been blocked. Probably for months.

      Lemmy just did that thing where when you sign it, it still shows blocked subs till you refresh

        I haven’t experienced this using Jerboa (3rd party app). Would definitely recommend it.
