They allow dis- & misinformation on a news community and threaten you when you report even the most obvious Tankie propaganda, which is why I blocked it. Not the only dumb take I've seen from them.
The called out mod specifically is the worst culprit. I guarantee if their mod privileges were revoked 85% of the bad rep .world gets would vanish.
.world has a bad rep?
Yeah, but I'm not convinced it's anyone in particular to blame. I think it's mostly because it's the biggest instance. That's just my take. I don't necessarily think the folks you're responding to would agree.
I think a lot of instances have a bad rep with users of at least one instance just because so many instances are ideologically similar.
That's what I believed it to be. Still better than .ml which is where I was before.
it's where most people flocked to during Da Great Reddit Exodus, so there's a lot of latent redditor behavior there. Anecdotally, my Lemmy experience has gotten significantly better after I started blocking every .world channel on sight.
I've been threatened/banned for calling out propaganda too
You should reach out to lemmy.world's admins about the situation, explain the problem to them and they might be able to help with it. I'd recommend doing the same thing any time an issue comes up around this particular mod. Eventually they'll get enough complaints and he'll be given the boot from those communities by the administration.
This is an idea most people will agree with, but few if any will actually do.
Can we all actually do this? I don't think they should be banned, but maybe ask that they shouldn't be a mod.
I don't really think people should be banned for it unless it's something awful they are doing, like using their community to spread hate and banning people who criticize or try to stop them. However I don't think the fear of getting them banned should stand in the way of reporting their wrongful behavior to the admins. They need to know about this, and if they choose to ban the guy, that's their decision. The best thing is that they deal with the problem and stop it from continuing to happen.
Have you seen this post then, gives me the ick and they deny people's trauma
If you think there's no photo album with photos of your naked kiddy ass then you may just be too young for photo albums.
I'm sure many people who are survivors of natural disasters like fires, tornadoes, hurricanes, and the like, as well as unnatural disasters like wars have lost their photos and indeed most of their childhood belongings.
And what the fuck does that have to do with parents doing nude photographs of their kids for completely non sexual reasons?
What do you mean what the fuck does it have to do with the situation, you made a broad general statement about how people who don't have photo albums or not thinking they have them must having been "too young for photo albums". I pointed out that it's wrong, and that there are many older people who for one reason or another do not have their photo albums anymore.
Actually if anything it's probably more likely that younger people will still retain their photographs after things like this with Cloud storage, and water resistant phones photos are more likely to survive things like that in this day and age. As well as, well, just normal messyness of life that causes things to get lost or broken randomly.
Here's your original one in case you decide to delete it later:
If you think there’s no photo album with photos of your naked kiddy ass then you may just be too young for photo albums.
I get your point, but I think most people would interpret the statement as "never had photos in an album" rather than "don't have photos on an album".
I guess that's fair, but he didn't say it clearly, he said "think there’s no photo album with photos" which might imply that there never was one, but on the surface it just says that there isn't one. And there could be an absence of one for many reasons.
I don't know what they were replying too since it's been deleted. It may have been more clear/confusing given the context.
Something about people complaining about parents or relatives sharing naked pictures of when they were a baby with total stranger.
I pointed out that it's wrong, and that there are many older people who for one reason or another do not have their photo albums anymore.
Dude, you very obviously completely missed the point of the topic at hand because that's absolutely not relevant. lol
Or maybe no daddy?
Oh honey...
That really doesn't come accross in your favour... You might think it does because of how the votes look, but it's because all the normal people left and only the weird people in your little bubble were left stomping on one normal guy with normal opinions for hours. The votes don't mean you were right, just means you were the only ones left.
It does show that FlyingSquid doesn't know to disengage fast when arguing with a dumbass - a skill that moderators should have IMO.
Yes, I do agree he for sure isn't perfect, no objections there. But I guess I was never expecting perfection in a human. As long as he keeps learning from his mistakes and doesn't actually do anything that he "almost" did, I don't see it as a problem yet.
Oh yeah. Definitely agree. I only found this post while browsing all, and wanted to share this since it was something that has come across my mind recently. He's doing more for Lemmy than me, that's for sure.
Even if most people do it (judging by your downvotes) I think showing someone's pictures without their consent is not ok. At all. Even worse if the purpose is 'torture' and 'embarrass' them. I don't care if it's their kids, children are people and deserve to be respected as such, clothed or naked.
Ah yep, that discussion.
