After being harassed in multiple discord channels by powermod FlyingSquid the news mod blackbeard has shuttered his account and moved to bluesky.

"The recklessness with which people downvote polite disagreements reminds me of all the worst parts of Reddit, and it proves to me that this isn’t the social media savior I’d hoped it would be, and is instead just another echo chamber. I hope eventually lemmy.world (and the fediverse more broadly) can grow out of that, but some of the behavior I’ve seen on the inside from both mods and admins doesn’t really inspire much confidence for that kind of evolution in the short term. "

FlyingSquid is the same mod who has the power to siteban people from lemmy.world

Why does lemmy.world keep having issues with their powermods and admins? Why do powermods get the ability to siteban their enemies from the largest instance?

      I’m largely on your side here but

      Biden literally vanishes for weeks at a time. Biden is a walking corpse who doesn’t make any decisions, they have to stuff him full of Adderall to get him to do anything

      Source? This sounds like Republican propaganda

      And just to be clear- I feel that a vote for either Harris or Trump was a vote for genocide

        I’m with you on this Lukacs is a something of a mirror image of the partisan twits he’s railing against.

        FS needs to calm down and have their abusive and manipulative actions there underlined so that they can learn from them and move on.
