  • This is proven by the data. Every poll on the subject reflected the sentiment that, had Harris split from Biden on Israel-Gaza, more would vote Harris. This was known before the election. This data was ignored. People were screaming for their rights up to the last second. Many (not all) still voted Harris. And now they are getting screamed down for still having the gall to express their anger at humans being treated as animals. It feels hopeless. The white moderate liberal has no shame or empathy.

  • they could have shut up and never expressed emotion or dissent at the deplorable level of dignity stripping they were subject to.

    that’s the genuine answer. that’s what white liberals would have preferred.

    and now they are getting shouted down by those liberals for still advocating for their own rights. many still even voted harris. it’s truly heartbreaking. america is so racist even the rise of fascism is blamed on brown people.

  • Sounds like there should be a page for sportsbots then. Mirroring “hundreds to low thousands” of accounts to Lemmy just sounds insane and poorly curated.

  • No. Account mirroring and bot posts go against the essential nature of social threaded link aggregation. I see sportsbots is already a Mastodon project which makes much more sense because microblogging has a follow-the-user rather than a follow-the-community model. Lemmy is follow-the-community. If there is interest in this content, users will create a Lemmy community and post content there. Maybe they will even link to the sportsbots mirror. But don’t just set up a script to do it for you, that’s just something people are going to block.

  • based

  • this but unironically. send them resources on how to transition smoothly to the fediverse.

  • You should be able to visit the post via a web browser that’s not signed in and get a direct URL. Also just don’t link to IG when possible (I know you probably have your reasons but throwing that out there).

  • lmaoooo thats so petty what

  • it might be useless gossip but for some reason a lot of fedi has various problems with this guy. for various reasons… he just has like … off vibes?

    i guess similar to how lemmy devs are marxist lenninists—at least making it open source means projects can be forked if the founders go off the deep end.

  • ??i’m seeing plenty of protests all over the place, why on earth does one have to be at the white house to count lol

  • fuck this situation so hard dude. imagine being one of the victims families and seeing your loved one’s lives being used as a pawn to denigrate people of color and the disabled.

    my utmost love and sympathy to all involved.

  • ah yeah that makes sense :) certainly a regional/language thing. from my perspective, the word more just means an emotional state in the same way anxiety is an emotional state. disordered behavior or insult is not implied unless it’s explicit.

  • yes and important to note this applies to other terms as well. non-disordered people can experience temporary depression, anxiety and paranoia. the clinical terms are related but should not be conflated. paranoia can occur to anyone who is going through paranoia inducing circumstances, like marijuana, sleeplessness, or an authoritarian capitalistic hellscape.

    (there are terms that have no aclinical parallel, though, like OCD, dissociative identity, or intrusive thoughts. we all should be careful not to misuse these terms.)

    i do appreciate your sensitivity @Natanox@discuss.tchncs.de ! i think it’s just a bit misplaced. :)

  • hi! i also am on the lemmy.cafe instance :) there’s not many of us but it’s very chill

    as for what you did to have happened, your relative may have just sent you a link to lemmy.cafe?

    that’s the cool part of fediverse: you technically don’t “join the fediverse” in the same way you don’t “join email.” Rather, you signed up for an account on a single server that can communicate with all the communities hosted between all the different servers. It’s kind of like how you might choose to make an account on outlook.com versus gmail.com—and you visit the site to go there.

  • article please? 🙏

  • AP News 11/29/24

    When Kamala Harris and Donald Trump campaigned in North Carolina, both candidates courted a state-recognized tribe there whose 55,000 members could have helped tip the swing state.

    Trump in September promised that he would sign legislation to grant federal recognition to the Lumbee Tribe, a distinction that would unlock access to federal funds. He ultimately won North Carolina by more than 3 percentage points, in part due to continued support from Lumbee voters.

  • you're funny

  • LOL the article specifically notes that it varies between users sometimes. your screenshot doesn’t even use the #fucktrump which is specifically what is referenced in the article.

    i generally downvote comments that are misinformation or unhelpful to the conversation; yours are both.

    do your methodology right and i’ll give you an upvote next time.

  • Imagine posting some proof, getting downvoted, then coming back to post the same ‘proof’ again without any additional information or explanation.

    The point is, Trump made remarks recently directly pertaining, and to some, admitting, to rigging the election. This is news.

    A “Fuck Trump” B “Trump Racist” and C “Trump election lies” are either (A and B) search terms that are clearly made by users who already have their mind made up, or (C) just really old and ongoing news that is not going to generate a surge of traffic.

    It’s a clever strategy, and it empirically works because you bought it. If TikTok was caught blocking all anti Trump content? That would be over. Everyone leaves. It’s too obvious. But if TikTok only blocks some anti Trump content, when it’s relevant, then “oops we fixed it” a week later when the media cycle has moved on? That can have a real effect on traffic to that content. Those creators don’t get views—don’t get paid. Abusing plausible deniability to create material consequences.

    What once set TikTok apart, literally a week ago, was that this didn’t happen. Not subjected to the political pressure from Israel and Zionist media, TikTok allowed a relatively uncensored expression of the violence and material conditions in Gaza and fostered the significant growth of the online pro-Palestinian movement.

    Something as cool as this will certainly never happen on TikTok again.
