The Justice Department secured court approval to seize two domain names and search nearly 1,000 social media accounts allegedly associated with the effort.

The tiniest tip of a massive iceberg.

I guess every little bit helps?

Maybe just enough to calm down the comments in the Lemmy news communities for a few days.

No one cares about Lemmy.

It’s a joke. Do you want me to explain it to you?

Zaktor ,

Sure, I love jokes that need explanations.

braindefragger ,

you need a shovel or you got it?

Zaktor ,

I’m not even sure what this is supposed to be saying, but I also like explanations for whatever this is supposed to be, so hit me with one of those too.

braindefragger ,

Do you find that you need “explanations” often?

Zaktor ,

Need? No. Enjoy seeing people get tongue tied trying to explain their stupid posts? Yes. That I enjoy quite a lot.

Hah, you’re one of those self-import people who auto-deletes their posts. I’d love to hear you explain why that’s a very important thing to do. I can only imagine the rest of the deleted posts were as witty as this one, why wouldn’t you want to keep those around for posterity? Is the Man going to dig up your shit posts? Are you going to be famous? Or do you just recognize your takes are often bad and want to escape the cringier version of yourself from a month ago? No shame, we’re all a work in progress.

Olhonestjim ,

Found one they missed!

braindefragger ,

Ah, I see. Very interesting. But tell me, how does that truly make you feel?

For instance, would you say hurling personal attacks at strangers online leaves you feeling better or worse by the end of the day?

Zaktor ,

LOL, what an incredible lack of self-awareness. More please.

They’re about a decade late on that front

Look, considering these operations are being run by a bunch of rich white dudes who made their fortunes ruining the environment and helping to oppress poor people, a decade late is pretty good for our justice department

It’s just too late is all I’m saying. The cancer is already here, and spread throughout.

Still. I'd rather not we go gently into the night. Defeatism gets us nowhere.

By all means, I agree, fight the good fight. Just wish we would’ve fought harder earlier.
