JFC. German media was full with news of a right wing victory. Good to see the socialists denied them a clear win.

A community like that has to be heavily moderated. Most user will get the joke and will shit on each other in good faith.

But it will always attract those who can’t understand sarcastic humor or those who will use the community to post outright racist shit. That’s what happened to the sub when I left and afaik the same happened to the Balkan version which had to be banned?

Just sort out the trolls and bad actors and you will be fine I think.

The sexual assault of a Kuki mother and daughter duo, who were stripped naked and paraded while being groped and molested by a mob of men in Manipur, is the latest example of that.

The video footage showing the women weeping, wincing in pain and begging their attackers to show some mercy is disturbing to watch.

The fact that the first arrest has been made only after the outrage in the case that happened 78 days ago and was reported to the police more than two months back doesn’t inspire much confidence in the administration - more so since many of the men are clearly identifiable in the footage.

[…]

“The gang rape of the women happened after the village was burnt down and two men - one middle-aged and another a teenager - were beaten to death by the mob,” the ITLF said.

Police said that the incident took place on 4 May and that a case of abduction and gang rape and murder had been registered in Thoubal district.

What the fuck? What the fuck? What the fuck?!

So, Indian Police is beyond useless. This is how you start revolts and no one will root for the state.

Reddit is bringing back r/Place at perhaps the worst possible time (www.theverge.com)

Reddit is bringing back r/Place at perhaps the worst possible time::Reddit is bringing back r/Place — a collaborative project where individual users can edit pixels on a giant canvas — at a time when user dissatisfaction with the platform is very high.

Arch-Brexiteer Nigel Farage thinks Brexit has failed.

After months of lying to the British people, screwing over GB and becoming a meme, reactionary fuck Farage thinks he might have been wrong. But it gets better:

The former Brexit Party leader told the BBC in May that the U.K. had not benefited economically from leaving the bloc, blaming the ruling Conservatives for having “let us down very, very badly.”

So, no. He wasn’t wrong. How could he ever be wrong?! Like a wise man with a funny voice once said: It wasn’t me.

What happened to the Crimea bridge and why is it important? (www.aljazeera.com)

Traffic on the single bridge that links Russia to Moscow-annexed Crimea and serves as a key supply route for the Kremlin’s forces in the war with Ukraine came to a standstill on Monday after one of its sections was blown up, killing a couple and wounding their daughter....

Aren’t Russians and friends holding these Olympic Games to flex their modern 90s high tech craptanks at third world warlords?

This might sound like a snarky rhetorical question, but it isn’t. I discovered LazerPig yesterday and I’m trying to figure out if he is somewhat reliable or not.

The dominance of cat content VS dog content on Lemmy reflects its current techie userbase

I originally joined Reddit in 2011, and in the beginning it was dominated by cat content. It was rare to see a post about dogs. Sometime in the mid 20-teens this phenomenon reversed. It’s always been a “pet theory” of mine that this reversal was due to Reddit becoming mainstream, and that it’s initial nerdy/techie user...

They believe the Covid-19 pandemic, which forced Chinese cities to endure some of the longest and toughest lockdowns anywhere in the world, could be one reason. The after-effects are not well understood yet, but could include feelings of anger and resentment, and involve a loss of jobs, investments and relationships.

Other possible factors that are cited are the high stress and high expectations put on young men in Chinese society. These are exacerbated by high levels of youth unemployment and a widening rich-poor divide. One expert told the BBC a strong sense of “social deprivation” can lead some to use violence to vent their frustration against society.

Alright, this COULD explain why they go on a stabbing spree. But why children? Why the kindergardens? Because they can’t defend themselves or is there more to it?

I am one of them. Only that I wallowed in the drama AND THEN participated in the protests.

I lurk there once in a while and yes, it is fucking dead. That whole sub just fell dead with the only active posts not even being drama at all.

Compare it what it looked like two months ago. Back then I thought that sub would be the last one to still stand, before it too imploded. But no! Everyone who made that sub so funny already migrated here (love y’all, you beautiful fucks) and all that’s left are these sad excuses of posters and commenters.

We understand that you are likely very busy, so we will wait until Friday, July 7th before taking any additional steps.

Dear Admins,

these are our balls. Please direct your attention at how enormous they are.

Edit: I wonder what will happen next. Maybe only screenshots of the open letter are allowed.

Memmy. It even had a full release on the App store a couple of hours ago, so no need for testflight anymore. There are updates almost daily and it gets better and better.

Well, I would welcome said admin on the glorious Fediverse and ask how the last few weeks must have been. No need to act like a rabid redditor. We must be better. (Then watch the admin burst into tears, because that was their first friendly human interaction in years)

If Lemmy and Mastodon continues to get popular, we will eventually get Instance wars.

If the descentralization of social networks continue, we will have to prepare for the eventual rise of the instances wars, where people will start to fight about which instance is better and which one is weird to be in and so on, but that’s for the future of us all.

“Now we really, really don’t want to mark r/pics as being NSFW,” reads the post. “Doing so would mean that we were no longer discoverable, that we would no longer show up in Reddit’s main feeds, and that millions of people would be deprived of John Oliver’s presence on their screens. It would also have the effect of keeping Reddit from showing advertisements alongside our posts, which we feel would be unfair.”

The wording of this post is key, as Reddit has reportedly stepped in previously to remove mods for marking their communities NSFW as a form of protest. “r/pics will not be made NSFW as a form of protest,” reads the post in r/pics. “Any such change will be enacted in order to comply with Reddit’s policies. If Reddit were to remove moderators from r/pics, that action would go against their own publicly affirmed guidelines.”

I have to say, this is actually hilarious. Sure, the admins will step in and switch them with someone else. But the current mods are doing this in the most hypocritically innocent way possible. Acting stupid and being a nuisance is the best way to get under someone’s skin.
