    “Donations to Lemmy don’t fund the instance, they just make sure Dessalines has enough free time to make 400 mod actions per day.”

    Didn’t he say he doesn’t moderate that much? Back when he wanted money? I wonder what else he lied about.

      Because they support the rich, when it’s CCP-enabled billionaires, or Ruling family of North Korea.

      The only thing coherent about their ideology is being anti-West and “pro-East” (ie. Campist). Everything else will bend to fit with their campist views.

    Trying to drum up an army by spamming a public call to action seems worse than over moderating your own instance. I doubt you’re much better than those you wish to criticize.

      It’s not spamming when I’m documenting wholly separate incidences, after all, if dessalines wasn’t using their power and influence to enforce a political narrative through censorship and propaganda spreading so much, I wouldn’t be able to post much of it now would I?

        I should probably post the guy who told me to catch bullets whose comment still isn’t removed.

          And? For one, there’s PieFed and Mbin and if it wasn’t Lemmy there would have been something else that would have come along.

          For two, someone doing good work does not give them a free pass to be shitty in other areas. You can praise one for good work in one thing and criticize them for the bad things they’re doing in another.

            Whatever it is, they felt the need to spam it a dozen times across this community lmao. Someone really loves kissing Dessalines’ ass.
