If you run into an asshole in ~~the morning~~ one instance, you ran into an asshole. If you run into assholes ~~all day~~ in every instance, you're the asshole

How do you do the striking out on keyboard ??

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 week ago

It's Markdown. ~~strike out this text~~ --> ~~strike out this text~~

Are you looking for an echo chamber that fits your views or what do you mean with “tolerate”? If you keep it civil and back up your arguments, I see a lot of potential for serious discussions on a lot of instances.

[–] [email protected] 23 points 1 week ago

Sounds like the perfect opportunity to make your own instance and have it be your haven.

We get that question every few weeks. No, Lemmy isn't a "free speech" place. We tolerate a lot of things here, but the rules are made by the individual communities and instance admins. Generally, they remove misinformation, unhealthy things, hate and such. We don't know about any "islands" which treat things differently. Lemmy is Free Software, though. You're welcome to launch such an instance, and you'll be free to pass arbitrary rules in your own niche.

Which flavor of liberal are we talking? We've come a really long way since the mere word had any decisive meaning.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 1 week ago

They're looking for somewhere that would welcome Andrew Tate style takes.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I find that the lemmy users think that there's one big Atlantic Ocean in the centre and the world is organised on its either sides. Have you ever figured it out that the lemmy servers are spread in what can be technically called the NATO countries ??? Do you have any idea how many users lemmy can have in the BRICS countries ??? And that's just the tip of the global south !!!

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 week ago

Yes. And what exactly does that have to do with my question?

What exactly are the "EU norms" you're talking about?

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 week ago (2 children)

I checked OPs comment history, not sure if conspiracy theory believers about NWO and Cabals are going to have a great time on here.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

They also have a temp banned alt @Docker_[email protected] you cannot see most of their comments, I am guessing they were purged with the ban, and do not appear in the mod log.

I don't know where you live but are you aware about the recent black outs in south western Europe ?? Do you still believe that NWO is a conspiracy theory????

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 week ago (9 children)

Yes, I was aware of the power outages, and yes I still think that NWO is a conspiracy theory. There's no connection between the NWO and the power outage, which was likely due to big variations in atmospheric temperatures. There's been no evidence of foul play or cyber attacks.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago (3 children)

Maybe not in this particular case, but do you believe that power outages through cyber attacks are absolutely impossible in today's world ?? Are you aware of weather engineering ???🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃

Anything that the EU doesn't agree with is put within the container called "disinformation". Then there are stringent laws regarding "regulating" the social media.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

That's not how anything works.

There are only 2 instances of media outlets being banned based on the outcome of a political action and both had been known to spread complete and utter nonsense as "alternative facts" before they were banned: Russia Today and Sputnik.

There's not a great big cabal that says what's true and what's not.

There are objective facts, there are opinions and there are complete fabrications aka lies aka "alternative facts".
Facts are fine.
Opinions are fine, but they're not facts.
Complete fabrications or "alternative facts" are not fine, they can be objectively judged to be complete fabrications.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Objective facts means tested and approved inside laboratories ???

So the people in the West know the ground realities as "alternative facts" ???😳😳

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I don’t know why you are talking about labs in this comment.

This place is deeply skewed left by European standard.
