Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.

If "Section 230" is repealed by the Maga-Idiots any US social media plattfrom will become liable for what the user's posts, they will have to do MUCH cleanup.

Any threat. Any wrongful accusation, and harm done to reputation will be OWNED not by the user in question.. but the company providing the plattform, as if they are a newspaper and all users are staff writers.

Imagine writing "Dodge only make shitty cars that break all the time" on X, and X is now held accountable by Stellantis for damaging their reputation.

I hope they do it. Plattforms that make billions from free work of the users, should own the liabilities.

I was for this when it passed originally but now seeing what these companies have done with it in the intervening years, I think maybe I was giving them too much benefit of the doubt

This is perfect for a non violent easter post 🤩

[–] obvs@lemm.ee 11 points 12 hours ago (2 children)

I think it's interesting people keep posting things about this particular person when it's likely to be filtered in all kiinds of media.

Not that I'm advocating for violence, but man, it seems like the people doing this would get their point across a lot more easily by posting pictures of groups of teens.

Everyone worships him and his deeds at the same time you let America turn into a dictatorship and let trump destroy everything. So hypocritical to celebrate him but at the same time sipping coffee watching all your future being destroyed... Luigi, on the other hand, has taken action... what about you and the heads in the sand? Hypocrites hypocrites hypocrites FCK Amerika

Pretty sure he is pissed on the citizen too!

[–] Cgers@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

It's all hero worship, our civic tradition is (unintentionally?) very heavily based on The Great Man concept, Washington crossed the Potomac, not the people in the army, MLK won the right for civil rights, not the thousands of people working together for decades, etc etc

Luigi will save us (no, it will take all of us)

[–] IceFoxX@lemm.ee 2 points 12 hours ago* (last edited 12 hours ago)

Well, it will definitely end with WW3 thanks to Trump. He has already given the go-ahead for global rearmament. Although too many still deny it (outside America)... The East has heard the starting signal for his first term and enjoyed the destabilization. The West is still in the process of realizing that... which means it's already too late, they slept through it. The East is better positioned for war. The one that provided the balance (America) is not ready for war, because one way or another there will be a civil war before the ethical cleansing begins. Also, every democrat should have a weapon for the future to protect themselves.

Trump always blames others for what he himself plans... Well now he blames others for starting ww3... 1+1= trump wants ww3 and to thin America of population.

I'm not saying that anyone should stop supporting him.

I am saying that if the end goal is to communicate messages of support for the types of things he did, it would likely make more sense to post pictures that couldn't be easily filtered.

Groups of teens would get a message across("guillotines") but would be difficult to filter effectively.

Pictures of one particular character are a lot easier to block.

Filtering systems can effectively block 100% of pictures of Luigi Mangione and of the character Luigi, but if people just posted picture after picture of groups of teenagers, that would be a lot harder to effectively filter.

Our insurance is tied to our jobs. If we lose our jobs, we lose any potential for financial stability in the face of illness or injury. If you protest and get hurt, you’re on your own.

It’s a billionaires world, and we’re just living in it.

[–] Saleh@feddit.org 1 points 7 hours ago

Well, 200 years ago Slavery for all was just normal in the US. Now it is only "normal" for people incarcerated, often on trumped up charges.

Things won't change by staying inactive.

[–] IceFoxX@lemm.ee 1 points 10 hours ago* (last edited 10 hours ago)

How? If they get killed. death people cant do anything

Luigi was also aware before he did it that his life would be over. It didn't stop him from doing the right thing.

lol in France we got the same but it's basically just one guy who owns all the media.

[–] Wanpieserino@lemm.ee 22 points 17 hours ago (1 children)

Yesterday I saw clips on TV from us media supporting trump's stances on Ukraine and stuff like that. Made me quite angry because the way that the presentation of the news was set up was to influence the viewer. Nothing else. It wasn't to inform, it was to influence.

When it's about politics on Belgian nationalised TV channel, then it's always various people who share their points of view and it's more to inform than to dictate.

[–] Ledericas@lemm.ee 5 points 14 hours ago

MSM in the uss are owned 6-7 trump loving conservatives thats why. last years was nothing but sanewashing trump news, while ignore all the epstein investigation+ we havnt heard from mis GHISLAINE maxwell for like 2 years by then in the news, besides epstein she was the 2nd in command in relation of his operations, she knew everything that was going on, but not a peep from msm about her.

Removing billionaires is self defense, don't let anyone tell you different. They commit acts of gross violence on the general populace every single day. It's time to re-balance the scales.

[–] Cgers@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 12 hours ago

The state calls its own violence law, but that of the individual, crime.

[–] Zzyzx@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 12 hours ago

Yeah, the existence of billionaires requires violence be perpetrated upon entire groups of people.

Apparently, just showing an image of the guy they are pinning the crime on is violence in and of itself. 🤷🏻‍♂️

He's just too hot. You must be 18+ to view this sexy, sexy picture 🔞🔞🔞🥵🥵🥵

I was shadow banned from Reddit for making a not violent Luigi post on 12/23/24. My account was older and had high karma. I am grateful to have found this community. The state of human rights in the United States is bleak. I watched my mom die from early onset Alzheimer’s in our broken system and I don’t even have words for the cruelty in our system. How can corporations be “people” if there’s no way to hold them accountable for mass murder? Our system is broken and corrupt from top to bottom and somehow it’s about to get much worse. Luigi gave those of us who are broken and tired a fleeting moment of hope.

[–] Ledericas@lemm.ee 7 points 18 hours ago (3 children)

i was banned before the anti-luigi initiative by reddit, it seems like they are coming up with new excuses to ban more and more people. so that only a small amount of users are left.

[–] Zzyzx@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 12 hours ago

reddit never had a problem with any of the right-wing subs calling for violence or engaging in harassment, so their bullshit claims of not allowing violence are absolutely hypocritical.

Because they own the platform.

Hence, why Lemmy was needed.
