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

And here I thought Lemmy was too small to have prominent trolls. Thanks for the head's up.

You can always depend on someone having absolutely no life and an agenda to push endlessly.

Oh we had (have) loads.

What do you think was trollish about OP's example? Looks to me like someone was mad that the guy posted an AP News article. So is posting AP News articles considered trollish now?!

It sounds like this guy actually believes themselves, dang

Jeez, Universal Monk is still at it? Christ almighty.

It's always either projection or the opposite of what they're saying.

Good. Lemmy should not be a safe space for fascists.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 week ago (3 children)

There's already a lemmy instance safe space of fascists, they can go there (the instance is blacklisted by the majority of other instances).

I saw, and was suspicious of Donald J. Musk. Umonk again! What a dweeb.

sEriOus ConSerVative ComMuniTy

Literally an oxymoron and trust me, I know because I have seen more of it than any of you combined.
It’s mostly all based on: we must make leftist cry. Such seriousness, the very core of it is fundamentally a joke.

No wonder right leaning instance is just shitposts and memes galore. This is basically what modern conservatism is.

He's a spicy one, I've been poking him for a week or two. He's about to snap, I can feel it in my bones.

[–] [email protected] 29 points 1 week ago (1 children)

How could one tell when that happens?

Dude is bugged out more than an abandoned gas station bathroom.

Did it occur to anyone that "triggering" those who have had or are on the verge of a complete mental break could exacerbate the issues? Like do we really want to be the straw that causes a suicide or mass shooting?

I'd seen comments about this account before and noted how the phrasing and comment behavior was a dead ringer for Universal Monk's usual bullshit. Glad to see others saw the same thing.

Has his Barry Goldwater alt been banned yet?

serious question, does shitjustworks have a reputation as a conservative community? I guess I do most of my browsing in the all feed so maybe I just haven't seen it? definitely not the instance I'd like to be on if that's the case 😅

[–] [email protected] 24 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I think they're referring to the /c/conservative community ON shitjustworks. I certainly have never experienced the instance in general leaning conservative.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 3 days ago

I love how all the conservative comms have no legit posts above 1 upvotes.

Hm, so other bans are going to follow?

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 week ago (4 children)

Is there something weird with shitjustworks that I’m not aware of?

[–] [email protected] 25 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Not that I know of, this is just the unhinged rant of a madman.

I think the conservative community was abandoned there, letting it go to seed with people who aren't in that cult.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 1 week ago (7 children)

It's too friendly. Something's not right.

[–] [email protected] 22 points 1 week ago (1 children)

My experience with UM et al is cavity inducing sweetness of tone while spouting racist BS.

I think the conservative com there got taken over by mods that aren’t right-wing and now exists to make fun of the right. I don’t particularly care but I can see why rightists might not love this.
