# Rules
1. Any drama must be posted as an observer, you cannot post drama that you are involved with.
2. When posting screenshots of drama, you must obscure the identity of all the participants.
3. The poster must have a credible post and comment history before submitting a piece of history. This is to avoid sock-puppetry and witch hunts.
The usual instance-wide rules also apply.

Chronicle the life and tale of the fediverse (+ matrix)
Largely a sublemmy about capturing drama, from fediverse spanning drama to just lemmy drama.
Includes lore like how a instance got it's name, how an instance got defederated, how an admin got doxxed, fedihistory etc
(New) This sub's intentions is to an archive/newspaper, as in preferably don't get into fights with each other or the ppl featured in the drama

How are you aware of alleged Lemmy users collaborating with the US government? It almost sounds like you are implying you have insider knowledge of the focus of US federal agents.
It's not new news. It's just a new development in that news. Spying was already a topic with Luigi and Robin, but Charlie Kirk's assassination was an enormous deal apparently, with world leaders the world over paying respects. That kicked off a whole search engine based registry, which MSNBC reported on. Some of this involves a doxxing process, and even if this wasn't already made clear, you could put two and two together and get an idea that Lemmy would play a huge part in this and would be the thing all the paper trails lead to.
As for knowing exactly who is working with the NSA, people working for the agency would follow the same tactics. They entice a reaction, fake-debate with people, mine people for knowledge while knowing who probably is and isn't sympathetic to extremists (even though they would play it safe and treat everyone the same). They're not afraid to outright sit down with trustees though (recall the story of Orwell ratting out his comrades), and the crew behind the search engine registry isn't classified. Some people will brag and say they're working with the government as a flex, and occasionally it will be consistent with events surrounding suspects.
I see. So it’s speculation then.
When your adversary is the spooks... That's the best you are gonna get.
I couldn't have explained that aspect better. Thanks.
If by speculation you mean indirect confirmation.
unless the nazi states of america start acting outside of their country, I don't think I'm too concerned about it. I'm not planning on ever visiting again, at least in the foreseeable future.
be safe down there, though, folks
i'm pretty close to that. I've not said anything directly pro-murder, but plenty anti-kirk and anti-trump.
I'm not pro shooter, but, as a Canadian, my facebook page is full of political concerns about Trump, and the USA's decline into facism. I wouldnt expect to be allowed in into the anti-free speech zones Trump is creating.
I really do despise authoritarianism. If only there was some way to become rid of it.
We could always switch to committee-based governance.
As a non-amerikkkan who studied history back in the day, check French history. They explored some ways to become rid of bad people in power in general.
Hate speech for thee, but not for me. Nazi scum do love their lists.
TheObviousSolution, that's "The" "Obvious" "Solution", without spaces.
If you are going to be afraid of what you say because of what despots and their cult followings are going to do, they have already won. The fact is, they aren't going after pro-shooter content, they are using Charlie Kirk to go after their political opponents. One way to go after them is to go after people capable of critical thinking, i.e. that point out that Charlie Kirk promoted hate speech, suffered an ironic death by the typical MAGA household profile shooter, and that people are free to now celebrate the absence of his hate. Don't be an asshole, force me into your funeral, then expect me to respect it.
I'm confused. Is it just users furnishing the gov with usernames? Or is it mods, who could potentially have access to a user's email used to sign up with their instance? Do mods have access to that, or just admins?
You can spin up your own instance and see a whole bunch of shit like IP addresses, vote history, etc.
I think it would be naive to think that the various 3 letter agencies wouldn't have their own instance to surveill us.
A mix of all the above. Recall that time in American history that Orwell ratted on his comrades.
Those fuckers (sadly in charge) are scared shitless.
They have a weird way of showing it.
Maybe I'm old fashioned but I don't think "pro-shooter content" should be a thing to begin with.
Glad I don't live in the US because the administration is fine with promoting hatred against women, transgender people and people who aren't white but this is where they draw the line. Safe to say they're scared shitless. Good lmao
China currently bans anyone from entering who denies their narrative about Tiananmen Square.
I don't think they do. I think they would if you decided to start telling people in China about it. But if you shut up while you're in China and haven't shown any signs of trying to influence the Chinese people, they don't really care.
You'd be surprised. Any time some famous YouTube host says anything about Tiananmen Square, there's almost always an obligatory drama queen remark about being banned from China the moment it gets uploaded (I say "drama queen remark" because I would be surprised if anyone would actually want to go to China aside from seeing the great wall and marking it off a bucket list of every nation that ever existed).
That's a celebrity. Nobody cares if you're an average person and not too loud. Although the list of celebrities on the Wikipedia list of banned people from China seems to be people who did/said stuff while in China, often to an audience.
