A few days ago, I asked if we could talk about things that happen outside the fediverse. I got a lot of different answers ranging from “yes” to “no” to “it depends”. Hunting someone down somewhere and saying “ah ha I found Zezima on X” isn’t the kind of thing I meant. This is.

That moment when an admin outright makes it absolutely clear if you read the room (those who remember past messages will be able to do that) that they’re going around trying to get back at people and further complicate things for them, the instance in question being in spiteful response to a promotion. The incentive to weigh in is thus pre-existing, plus I am fediversally relevant because I have been accused of being them (not that I’m the only one), so I get the contagion.

It’s a bit much.

    Nothing of all of this makes sense to me. It’s just s rambling mess of words.

      He’s not kidding when he says the context to understand the whole thing is in what he redirects to.

      For example, the second and third sentence is a direct response to the replies which talk about the conditions for which the actions he is asking about would be considered “good”. Take the top response for example: “I think you might be the drama at that point.”

      In the fifth sentence, he alludes to the understanding that the person who made a “first move” (which would be relevant in the discussions just mentioned) is the individual in question, before citing the first few moments of the context (before continuing to elaborate the first part of the fifth sentence). The “promotion” mentioned is an admin promotion. “The incentive to weigh in is thus pre-existing” refers to this, and then he mentions why it applies to him.

      I have English issues and even I could comprehend all of this.

        I just watched the Youtube video, I’m even more confused. Is that channel accusing you of being a pedophile? What the heck?

          Yes, that’s what going on. I’ve always been someone people are inclined to make into a target.

            That seems messed up on so many levels. Have you tried reaching out to Youtube to remove those videos?

              Having seen that kind of thing attempted, there is every sign at this point the people in charge there won’t allow any changes/intervention.

            What is the link between Lemmy and the kiwifarms post on Reddit, and the tweet at the end? Seem unrelated

              It’s one I saw from my feed that alludes to how issues between people might start up yet are ill-equipped to die down. So then when this whole thing happens, it just keeps going and going.

                Nobody knows what you’re on about, and to be honest we don’t really care enough to try and figure it out.

                  That is why I put links there. The first link literally brings you to what this post in the Fedilore community, which was put here because it fits the Fedilore community, is a sequel to. It was put in this community because of this, so if it doesn’t please certain people, then that speaks for what they are in the community for.
