If this is where we’re at leading into the next Trump term things are going to be beyond fucked in very a short while
Or be beyond good. More CEOs might be raskulacheny.
Even Lemmy is bending over backwards about it, so nobody think that the Fediverse is non-compliant.
[citation needed]
Been on Lemm.ee and have only seen posts in support of him and how fucked up healthcare is.
It’s the admins and mods for Lemmy.world
I’ve seen tons of posts in support of Luigi. The ones I see taken down are ones are threats of violence, including vague and ‘joke’ threats.
I think that’s pretty reasonable considering they are following the law of the countries that host it.
Same. The admins even said they’d allow his manifesto to be posted as long as it was in the appropriate community.
I had a post removed because I linked to an article. Didn’t express any opinion of my own and it was from a legit news source.
This you?
Yep. I guess the last sentence does express an opinion.
My dude, that’s clearly a threat.
I landed first in world. Now I only use it when Aussie.zone is offline.
I should make lemm.ee my backup
Good thing lemmy.world isn’t the entire fediverse then
There are certain instances on which it’s the instance admin who’s posting the pro-shooter memes.
I’m glad more and more I landed on this instance.
I think that they’re referring to Lemmy Worlds announcement.
I was just curious since the fediverse is a hell of a lot more than just LW. Didn’t even think about them since I only see posts that make it over and must have missed that announcement
World moderation seemed too “all up in my business”, so I ditched it fairly quickly. I get that ML users have a reputation for being obnoxious about their politics, but the moderation has been very “hands off”…as far as I can tell.
They just moderate in other ways to protect their own views. Mention anything counter to .ml and out you go, also you can’t swear which is an odd rule.
My comment history and the fact that I have not been banned disagree with your assessment.
You’re lucky, many people have been.
We can all view your moderation history. (The 3 vertical dots next to the star)
None of your comments and posts have been removed by a .ml moderator.
I never said mine were. I’ve seen it happen to plenty of users and I’ve seen downvotes as well.
Lemmy instances or run by individuals in a crap ton of different jurisdictions. None of these individuals want to go to court for our free speech. If an instance or an admin or running out of a location where they are reachable by legal measures, who are we to say they need to protect us?
You aint stopping shit. 😎
Are they trying to making Healthcare affordable?
It’s funny watching basically every news outlet scrambling to try to and explain why Luigi has so much approval online, when the answer’s rather simple:
US Health Insurers go out of their way to fuck over people in their time of need (the old Delay, Deny, Defend), and the executives get rich off of doing this - so the people hate them, and are more than willing to spit on their grave.
I thought content moderation was very difficult???
Meanwhile the other day the manager of a grocery store was joking about how we need more people like him while scanning my ID for beer.
Gotta keep the proletariat in line. Can’t have them getting uppity.
If Amazon or eBay takes down your merchandise, you can always sell it on https://xmrbazaar.com/ and somebody could make a legal defense fund on https://kuno.anne.media/
Good fucking luck.
Quite amazing that killing 1000s(?) a year is ok, shooting the one that allowed it isn’t.
They are at war with people
Man. I am so glad I joined the federation.
I am sitting here, in incredible pain from a combined sinus and ear infection, waiting for the antibiotics I need to be shipped to me in 3-5 business days because my insurance will only provide prescription coverage through Express Scripts and not a retail pharmacy.
This same insurance company has also denied to cover a surgery they have prior auth for, denied coverage for routine lab work that is expressly covered, waited months to review disputed charges and gotten them sent to collections, and forced me into a lower tier of coverage twice due to premium increases.
The kicker? I work in the health insurance industry. But I’m not an exec, just a support worker.
They can try to stop the online support all they want, but they should know that the active censorship will only cause people to go elsewhere. This issue is uniting everyone who watches the evening news, and they can’t risk not covering the story because they are hoping to make an example of him.
Damn, I hope your infection doesn’t progress. Stay strong
Thankfully it won’t, but I had to deal with more of their shenanigans.
Did you know that they refuse to transfer a prescription if they haven’t filled it at least once? I had to call the urgent care clinic back and have them transfer it instead.
Bless the retail pharmacy worker who walked me through how to get everything in order and got me discount coupons. It took them 30 minutes to fill and cost me a total of $15. So I will be okay, but in spite of Express Scripts, who gave me an ETA of the 17th, more than a week after the script was ordered.
I fucking hate the push to use Express Scripts. You can’t rely on receiving a medication that you need in a timely fashion using them.
I’ve been fortunate that I’ve been able to opt out of them, but insurance did push back, and I still get emails and mail from them as though I use them at all ever. I report it as spam every time, but it doesn’t make a difference.
