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?
That is textbook misinformation.
The linkage of Kamala Harris with the genocide in Gaza, persistently and disingenuously, with an apparently-successful outcome of greatly increasing the genocide by putting Trump in charge instead, is one major type of misinformation on Lemmy. If you were coming and saying "It is not misinformation to say that Kamala Harris hasn't even condemned the genocide and is losing Arab voters because of her attempt to waffle on this crystal-clear issue," then that wouldn't be misinformation, whether I agreed with it personally or not. But going off into factual la-la land in order to accomplish your political goals for any particular discussion is absolutely misinformation. Thank you for providing a good example.
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. He can barely complete a sentence, that's why they ran Kamala. They are part of the exact same administration. She's the figurehead now.
The rest of what you said is pure speculation about what you deluded yourself into thinking Harris would change once elected. The US is not just arming Israel. US intelligence is calling the shots. US weapons can't even be used without US intelligence. US soldiers are in Israel, overseeing the genocide in non-combat roles. Maintaining advanced air defense systems.
Israel is practically the size of New York City, and is dependent on the USA for everything. Reagan had absolutely no problem bringing them to heel in an instant. Kamala could do the same by actually cutting off aid.
I'm largely on your side here but
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

Blocked your instance for being annoying beyond words and I side with Hexbear in the trans people calling each other transphobic beef (lol), so can't reply directly, but the republican propaganda part of it was saying he was actually dead because he was gone for so long LMAO, him frequently going missing had to become a meme first. I am not your aide and it is not my job to catch you up on the last 4 years.
"Weeks at a time" is probably a stretch but showing up in public is not strenuous enough for most officials that they have gaps at all. Hell when this happens in China or the DPRK liberals become convinced people were executed.
