I’m confused, what? (like that I’m just so used to mean big internet??? or something else?)

Reddit keeps everyone engaged with hate and drama. They have bots that go after people to troll. Of course, there are the real trolls as well. So far, we’re a little lighter than that.

How are you liking it here?

My best advice is that if it seems inactive, that means you should subscribe to a bunch of stuff and switch to hot, top 6 hour and scaled. Active is the default and seems the least active.

The comments in this thread will give you a great idea on how most people act around here. Hate the idea and not the user and you should be fine.

Your “also plz be kind :D” comment tells me that you’re going to go through a bit of withdrawal on the hate and drama. It’s great here even even though we have a few trolls and bots.

Yup:

In the deposition, Giuffre alleges that she and Dershowitz were introduced while Jeffrey Epstein trafficked her as a teenager. She alleges she and Dershowitz had sex on “at least six” occasions, saying that she couldn’t count the number of times she’d met the then-Harvard law professor.

“Professor Dershowitz was around a lot and there was always young girls around a lot,” Giuffre says in the deposition.

She describes several instances of engaging in sexual contact with Dershowitz, who’s now 85, or when he was nearby, indicating “Dershowitz was so comfortable with the sex that was going on that on one occasion he observed me in sexual activity with Epstein.”

Giuffre details in the deposition being encouraged by Epstein to engage in oral sex with Dershowitz while in a limousine, to have intercourse in a plane while traveling with another young woman who was trafficked by the financier, and at Epstein’s home in his bedroom.

In addition to accusing Dershowitz of engaging in sex with her while she was between the ages of 17 and 18 years old, Giuffre also alleged in the deposition that she had seen him having sex with at least one more of Epstein’s victims she suspected of being underage, a girl she identified as “blond” and “young.”

Yeah, I think you’re off-putting to other people. I get that you’ve tried stuff, but were you letting others talk? Were you obviously rolling your eyes at people? Were you shutting people down instead of keeping an open mind?

People are being nice here, but I think you need it spelled out. I’ll do it in order of importance at the top.

• Don’t be a dick
• Don’t be a dick
• Ask questions
• Listen to their answers and respond accordingly
• Don’t judge other people

F-droid maybe we’ll find a new good home then?

I personally prefer them. They’re not perfect, but it’s better than having a facebook kind of experience.

You’re not a troll, that’s why I think you don’t understand. I post something that’s not controversial and a “who cares?” kind of post. Then, like 10 minutes later, it gets downvoted 12 upvotes in a block. This is a place with like 30 subscribers. I quickly check who’s downvoting so much so quickly, with the obvious intent to hide the post. The users who have no other comments, I’ll ban them. That community is not for them. If the person seems real, I’ll give them the benefit of the doubt. I don’t care about downvotes in general, just the trolling kind.

That’s valid. But you’re not going to go to a community that accepts AI then, so being banned is probably not a big deal. You don’t want that in your feed either.

Also, people have been wrong about AI, sometimes it’s a photoshopped photo. I’ve had a real photo serial downvoted because people thought it was AI and it wasn’t.

There are a shit ton of serial downvoters, and as a mod, this helps you find them. Not as much on the larger instances, but the small ones. If you just post something and there are 30 users, and there are 8 downvotes, it’s pretty obvious what they’re doing.

Yeah, Idk. Maybe a weird filter from 9gag’s side? I couldn’t find that clip anywhere else, which is also really strange.

Yep, Patel is covering for him

Because this place isn’t censored for their side, they’re trying to break it.

I love how the microphone hides his mini-stroke droop.

In another article, this should piss the Europeans off. I think another word, and a more accurate one, would be dictator.

How Donald Trump became president of Europe

There’s no rhyme or reason to who they hate. They hate who they’re being lead to hate.

I think it was his wife at the time’s doing anyway. She wanted to do all that stuff. Also, trump knows who was in the epstein files, bill gates was on epstein’s plane. This seems like people getting blackmailed. Not sure of what he has on the rest of them.

• Bill Gates- Microsoft
• Tim Cook - Apple
• Safra Katz - Oracle
• Sam Altman - Open AI
• Sergey Brin - Google
• Sundar Pichai - Google
• Mark Zuckerburg - Meta

Edit: Notice who isn’t there,

• Bezos. They tried to blackmail him years ago and he released it anyway.
• Musk: Musk has shit on trump and also they’re fighting

Welcome. A reminder for in case you don’t know, if it starts to feel stale, then it’s probably because of your viewing settings. If you switch it from Active (ironically, the least active), to Hot, 6 hours, Scaled, etc. after you’ve gone through all of the new to you posts, you’ll see a lot more action.
