I just did a search on Beehaw local for the keyword “China”.

Somehow I don’t see it being any more welcoming than any other site I’ve seen in the … well, Fediverse actually. The western left is not a whole lot better on that topic than the western right.

Tell me, how insecure are you that you COME HERE to tell us that we are somehow going out to scream at you?

You. Came. Here.

Not the other way around.

How shrivelled is your manhood that you can't stand being asked to not be here? What is behind your obvious misogyny? (What's that? You don't think you're misogynistic? Tell me how you'd respond, then, to someone going to a metal-oriented channel and saying that all metal sucks and that only losers and wasted goons listen to that shit: real people listen to waltzes.)

Now piss off, child. Adults are trying to continue with a conversation. The toddler table is over there.

"If you ask me one more time I will stab you with this knife."

You’re clothing says “NOT INTERESTED GO AWAY” and you’re literally verbalising it. As always this isn’t a misunderstanding, it’s harassment and it’s wrong.

There's a certain breed of male (I won't say "man" because they're not: they're boys at best) that sees a woman sending signals they're not interested and take it as a challenge. Wearing loose-fitting, frumpy clothing? Let's see what she's got under that! Tell them you're queer. That's because she's not been with the right man yet! (Note: they think they're the ones who can "cure" lesbian or asexual or whatnot people. Because they're so special. 🙄) Tell them you'll stab them in both eyes with a pair of crescent-bladed knives if they don't back right the fuck down? I'm going to complain to the manager!

Can't win for losing. The only thing they sometimes respect is "my boyfriend wouldn't approve". Because now you're another man's "property" and "property" rights are paramount. (Except for a small batch of them for whom even this doesn't back them off.)

There's a reason why there's always a knife or two on my person.

Gay dude here, as usual I feel hostility when I see these threads but I’ll reply anyway.

Let me translate this from Male Privilege to English:

"I'm a guy and even though I know this is against the channel rules, I won't let mere WOMEN tell ME what to do."

Go away child.

I have a technical question: is it not possible to set up a community that is "member-only posting" in Lemmy? (Genuine question, I have no idea. I don't run an instance or a community.)

Let me guess. You identify as an attack helicopter.

🙄

you are walking up to every man around and screaming in their face that they aren’t welcome.

Men (presuming, I'm guessing, you, despite knowing the rules, because rules aren't for men...) have to come to this group to be told to piss off. (And the mods are super nice about telling men to piss off. There's a reason why they're mods and I'm not!)

For you to call that "walking up to every man around and screaming in their face" is so fucking ridiculous that I can't even begin to imagine the kind of entitled, toddler-like mindset required to express this without laughing.

I tutor a girl who was collecting a huge number of acceptance letters, having basically her choice of American university to attend. She was ecstatic about this.

Now she's not going to the USA. I've directed her to Canada or Australia as options.

I just did some testing of this. They're being amazingly precise.

I asked Gaokao-style questions of DeepSeek. I got answers. When I asked why I got answers it said "because there are no current Gaokao tests running".

So I asked the same test later when there were Gaokao tests running. It still answered. Because it determined the question I asked was not related to the current Gaokao question suite.

So I scanned a math problem and asked one of Ali's LLMbeciles to solve it. Instant block.

They're doing this in a really, really smart way. The only smarter way would be to ban LLMs entirely.

Any system that has visible scores that people vote to get is going to foster negativity. The Original Sin of online spaces was assuming that "popular" is "good".

Let's see if I can help cut through the communications problem by assembling everything in one place with short, simple bullet points:

• OP was in leftymemes and spotted an LLM-generated meme he didn't like
• OP exercised his right to downvote a post he didn't like in a forum he was participating in
• the person who posted the meme got salty and banned OP from the communities they moderate
• these communities happen to be hosted on dbzer0.com, a noted AI-boosting instance
• OP took a look, started blocking some of the more extreme voices before deciding to just block the whole instance

(This is what I get from reading the original post and a bit of extra in the comments. If I'm wrong on any point, OP, let me know.)

Does this help clear up the misunderstanding?
