      Yeah, but the community is filled with liberal posts anyway.

      It’s basically becoming like r/FlatEarth, where they make fun of flat earthers.

            So, mods at r/worldnews gave up moderating and became inundated with anime titties.

            Then r/anime_titties became the new world news lol.

            It depends…. But yeah, not much better… Europe is a few years behind and still going hard on neoliberalism, but the right is moving more and more to the right. And the “left” that has been winning ground is as fang-less and liberal as American Democrats. So yeah, we’re fucked as well. Only a few years behind lmao.

      You don’t have to endure shit, maybe stop brigading other people’s communities if you don’t like them. You can’t possibly willingly search up a community for an ideology you don’t agree with, then complain about having to see them.

    Meta discussion - the existence of this post makes the wonder what moderation tools on lemmy are like? And if there’s systems in place to deal with unwanted content.

    https://join-lemmy.org/docs/en/users/04-moderation.html

    1. Users report posts & comments
    2. Communities have mods
    3. Instances have admins
    4. Instances that disagree on how moderation should be done can block the other

    Edit: Changed “unmoderated communities” to “unwanted content” to clarify my intent to discuss moderation in general

      This community is moderated. We receive reports and will act on them if the reported content breaks the rules in the sidebar: there is no racism or bigotry, no personal insults, and u/stanleytweedle has not been spamming.

        Oops, didn’t mean to imply that the community wasn’t moderated or that this post in particular was worthy of a ban. The post was slightly negative so it made me think about moderation. Thanks for your work!

          I seem to have misunderstood your post too, lol.

          And if there’s systems in place to deal with unmoderated communities.

          This made me (incorrectly) assume the intent of your comment.

          The moderation tools are pretty similar to most other platforms, as you neatly laid out.

          I’m so happy you are a powerless person 🤣 – you think with the simplicity and guilelessness of a simpleton. One man raped women and children (“I SHOULD’VE POPPED HER CHERRY!!!” and, of course, “GRAB EM BY THE PUSSY”), is facing countless indictments related to treason and national security, hundreds of thousands of preventable deaths, stochastic terrorism, literally has resent toward veterans as he sees them as a threat to his masculinity, 191m dollars golfing, it goes on and on. And another “doesn’t talk right” and “is old”. I hope you can one day realize how stupid you not only sound but ARE when you say/believe things like this. You sound like a self-important high-school drop-out.

              All you are is weak taking points wrapped in a personality disorder and a room-temperature IQ. Weak brained, fearful of facts and truth.

              I hope you give him all your money, wear your stupid khakis, and march your ass to real society and try to pull your looney tunes bullshit again, round 2 for the Jan 6 shit-smearering goblins like you.

                  No, it literally isn’t. If you are confused, contact a legal professional in your area to walk you through the difference between baseless and unsubstantiated claims attached to short media pulled out of context and actual crimes with actual victims.

                  You are acting in bad faith–you can believe your independent or whatever you want call yourself–as someone who willfully ignores reason. Thankfully, no one has to listen to you or anyone else’s perverted little stupidities and half-lies much longer because your kind has been dying off faster than Dodo. They begged teary eyed for a vaccine far too late before they’re intubation; or absolutely never can find love in a populated area; or wait for a pardon in a DC cell.
