hey L.W mods/admins, how's it going?

Long before Guy Bartkus’ personal war against life ended with him the sole suspect in blowing up a fertility clinic, and himself, there was a fascination with pyrotechnics.
Hey remember when .world was getting all high and mighty about defederating from Hexbear and Lemmygrad because they might incite violence?
Duh, it's not violence when it's against the marginalized.
TBF he was only active on Lemmy during the month of the 2023 Reddit third-party app exodus.
Redditor until the end
He volunteered that he wanted to kill himself by strapping an explosive to his head, setting the timer for one hour and drugging himself to sleep. He said he lacked access to any drug stronger than codeine. Available explosives were not the problem.
Only in America could this be the case
Terror.world
It is unavoidable that in any social net with thousands or million users, can appear also one or several which obviously spread criminal, violent, terroristic and far right messages, because pure statistics. It can not value a social network by these, but how they treat or if they tolerate these users, instead of banning these in the same moment after posts like these.
it's almost like the internet has allowed all kinds of extremists that would otherwise be alone in their extremism find each other in an echo chamber where they're all "obviously correct" and that any action they choose to take is warranted and approved by their extremist community. with 8+ billion people in the world, of course you can find 1000 online that agree with you.
Least extreme .world mod.
Anyone want to place bets on how long it is before Elon uses this as an excuse to whisper in Trump's ear that he needs to classify the Fediverse as a terrorist organization? It'd conveniently shut down competition with Xitter (and other billionaire-owned social media sites) if Mastodon (and Lemmy and PeerTube and Diaspora etc) was shut down for "RaDiCaLiZiNg fErTiLiTy ClInIc BoMbErS" or whatever BS.
I run my own instance. I’d tell Elon to eat a pile of soggy dicks before I shut anything down.
lol nice domain. Also yeah, running an instance is so so easy. Just follow the lemmy-ansible installation instruction and that's pretty much it.
lemmy is not even a blip on anyone's radar and huge majority of its users still primarily use reddit and twitter.
I would strongly recommend using a Lemmy/fediverse instance that is not hosted in the US.
For tons of reasons, the fact that it might get shut down by Trump isn't even in the top five.
It's an LA Times article. Those kinda guys avoid anything from LA like the plague
Going to be awkward for anyone who wants to take the open mod spot.
Preemptively blowing up a fertility clinic as a last resort.
Wait WHAT?
Hey look, one of these anonymous internet people was insane and became a terrorist. Sure casts a bad light on all of you.
Dann im out of the loop, what happend?
Added archive link
Who did?
And how did that cause a clinic bombing?
Are you the culprit?
I find it interesting that he was removed as a mod 3 days ago and this came out today
Is it possible that the admins were asked for comment by the paper?
That’s my hunch
time for a ptb post?
I was wondering where were the right leaning people. Sole moaned some time ago about bring censored then they seel to have left. Did they go on .world ?
This isn't a meme
