    Everybody upvote Luigi content! Get banned! Leave reddit! Reddit crumbles! Fuck reddit! Go Luigi! Lemmy grows! Centralized social media dies! I eat a burrito. That last one wasn’t really on topic, but it’s happening anyways! I’m hungry.

    Friendly reminder that almost all news media outlets and social media platforms are owned by a handful of extremely wealthy individuals and they are in full control of the algorithm that feeds you content, so you’ll likely never see anything that is critical of them or advocates for them to have less power or influence than they do.

    This is the 2025 version of “The revolution won’t be televised”.

      Or just open the thread on an mbin instance. Here’s everyone that upvoted this thread.

      Edit: Downvotes (reduces) are less exposed, but as you said, someone can just run a fedi instance that exposes them to everyone.

        I think all reactions should be exposed.

    Exactly the same. I got critical of the right and all of a sudden banned for violence ? After 12 years ? And me NEVER calling for harm to anything.

    But I got hyper critical of the right and that’s what did it.

    Reddit is and has failed.

    I just created a Lemmy account because of this stupid policy. Republicans/Conservatives can spew all manner of hate without consequence and we upvote “Elbows Up” (a hockey term BTW) and we get banned? Screw that.

    I got banned from my city’s subreddit for calling out racism and within minutes was then banned 3 other Canadian subreddits.

    The Russkies seem to have a stranglehold on our social media platforms

    Finally made the jump. Reddit is a right-wing cesspool of censorship.
