Two people constitutes brigading? By that standard, you ought to ban the lot of us from .world!

I intended to respond but this lot beat me to the punch. The only thing I’ll emphasize is The Sun, a tabloid rag with a history of false reporting, is the only original reporting. The other outlets are parroting them, some without attribution by simply stating “according to reports” like the above linked NZ Herald, or indirectly by attributing to a report which attributes it to another and so on, until it ultimately gets back to The Sun, like in this India Times article.

NYT: “Dictator Kim Jong Un has declared that serving the sausage was an act of treason, The Sun reports…”

Vice: “One thing to keep in mind about this report is that you have to take it with a grain of salt. It originates from The Sun, a tabloid that doesn’t have a ton of credibility.” -Emphasis mine because it’s funny-

The Mirror: . “One vendor, who is based in the northern province of Ryanggang, stressed that authorities have been monitoring them closely. The vendor told The Sun…”

Regardless, none of this really matters. This “call for commentary” appears to be your attempt to legitimize your moderation as we’re doing scarcely more than the bloke you banned for answering your request. You’re doing less. Should you be banned?

If you can’t be impartial, or at least honest about it when you aren’t, consider handing the job to someone who can.

For the record, “arguing in favor of a fascist regime” also appears to mean questioning if this article is actually true. Admittedly, they didn’t do the best job. This “brigade” from .ml was an astounding two people, plus one who responded to me with a snarky comment.

Given the originating article was actually from The Sun, a right-wing tabloid, I’m a little skeptical. The Radio Free Asia bit was in reference to a November 2024 article about the crackdown on the other mentioned dishes. Not coming from a tabloid, I’m much less skeptical there.

Also for the record, I commented once in a .ml “Fuck Cars” post. Looking forward to seeing if browsing by all makes me a pro-fascist North Korean supporter.

Also because people like Musk are further empowered when no one is looking. I’m as tired of hearing about him as anyone but will keep reading until he’s in prison, dead, or at least not the de facto president of the united states.

Just a heads up: PJ there’s opinion is almost always whatever stirs up the most shit while getting them approval. I’ve literally seen them contradict their self within a few minutes in different conversations with separate people. If you look up “bad faith” on Wikipedia, a screenshot of some of their conversations here is listed.

I’m joking for the last sentence, but don’t drive yourself crazy. They are the poster child for .world’s problematic shit stirring, weird crusading behavior. Conversing with them is a waste of your time.

In this thread:

Blahaj Community: If you’re not trans, you don’t get a say in how trans spaces are run.

You: If I were a transgender person, here’s how I think I’d feel!

But mate, you’re not trans! How great, your opinion literally doesn’t matter a half fucking iota. It’s not needed or even wanted. Cishets run the world, so fuck right off out of trans spaces with your “but if I were trans” opinions. You’re not, no one cares.
