before ya go, 'lemmy' is a software package used by many, many different server-instances with their own moderation levels. its not a 'site' so much as an ecosystem.

for example, youve posted this to lemmy.ml, one of the most heavy handed of the instances with regards to moderation. you should try out other instances like lemmy.world or even other products that get you the same data with less moderation (https://moist.catsweat.com)

youve just dipped your foot in the pool, dont leave because of a few mosquitos

Misinformation on news, and any person that tries to corrects it gets bullied outta there… ain’t a small thing though.

I would say that is quite a big thing. Specifically.news subs.

I think I was on world but still figuring it out. Thanks!

You were just given the correct answer but you are too butthurt to hear it. Lemmy isn’t a site. Lemmy isn’t run by a single corporate overlord with homogenous rules. Lemmy is just software and part of an ecosystem that is comprised of many different instances. What you are saying equates to “People reacted poorly to my tweet. Why is HTTP so toxic?!?”.

If you want a safer version of Lemmy, try Beehaw.org. If you want a bigger server that is closer to Reddit, try lemmy.world.

EDIT: Autocorrect sucks.

Beehaw still exists? I haven’t thought about those liberal windbags since they took their ball and went home

get a load of this

I always browse “All” so I can see stuff from every corner that hasn’t defederated lemmy.ml. I see some beehaw now and again. Not much though.

wrt the “”“misinformation”“” you called out:

When a cop feels unsafe you should flop bonelessly to the ground so they can establish dominance, it’s the only way to survive.

Literally just lots of people making stuff up.

In that example that she wasn’t touching the pot of boiling water when he shot and many more.

They told her go move the pot of water, so she complied. The murder was across the room, and only when lightly rebuked did he opt to pull his gun and charge toward her, shouting that he would “put a fucking bullet in her face.”

She immediately started apologizing and dropped to the ground. The murderer then fired 3 shots at her, with one piercing her face and throat.

Since the murderer illegally didn’t have his camera on, it’s hard to tell if the scared woman was holding the pot of water when she dropped to the ground in fear. It is easy to tell, thanks to his partner’s bodycam, that he was in no danger when she made a mild comment in her own home while committing no crimes, at which point she was brutally murdered.

Actually they released his camera footage (and I tortured myself by watching it.)

Content Warning: Pigs being pigsShe had the pot at the moment of shooting.

Slow the video to .25x speed at 10:40 to see it in her hands, the open mouth facing towards him as she jumps up.

This doesn’t justify the shoot though! He was advancing on her with his gun drawn and screaming after she did everything he told her to do! Normal people are not trained on what to do when a butcher comes to your house and starts escalating the situation.

He wasn’t in fear for his life. He just wanted to murder someone.

Some of these people, thread OP included it sounds like, will not accept that the pigs are slave-catchers even if the lynch mob comes to their homes specifically. You’re burnin your breath with them, sis; and I pray you find a new measure of peace after watching that footage.

Can we agree he wasn’t in fear for his life?
