That's it.

Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.

i left reddit for good today with their obvious attempt at controlling the narrative like the rest of big social media. long live the lemmy federation
What do Reddit's management and my confidence in my own heterosexuality have in common?
As always, follow the money. Those in power want more and more money and in order to do so they need to control the population. If there is one remaining social aggregate that can foster sentiment against them, they will come down hard on it. Reddit became a corporation like Facebook and then now they want to add Reddit to the list of social aggregates they control.
They have successfully jailed the alleged killer. They are trying to also imprison the idea he represents.
Let’s get this guy on some candles!
Anybody got a wallpaper version of this? LMFAO
Luigi Mangione 💚
Is Spaz (CEO of Reddit) secretly a health insurance CEO? Has he been killing and maiming peoplebyy denying health care?
Someone should check.
If I wanted this on my bathroom wall, what's the best website to get it ordered?
Vistaprint.ca is Netherlands-based and prints all kinds of marketing materials like flags, banners, stickers, flyers, business cards…
While Etsy is a US based platform, there are still small business owners from Canada who can also provide digital printing services on any kind of merch you want.
Amazon is dead to us, there is always an alternative.
It's not the man, it's the actions.
I got banned from late stage capitalism for questioning why they have a hard on for China.
i mean yeah, generally when a society idolizes a killer, it's not for a particularly good reason (society wise)
and before anybody tries to yap about it, no there would only be a potential long term benefit to this kind of thing, slight shift in politics, maybe on the extreme end a government uprising, which will take many a year to come to fruition, and cause many years of instability. Generally these kinds of things only bring short term problems, when acted upon, humans are just animals, the salem witch trials happened for a reason, if left unchecked, this would turn into a bloodbath very quickly. Lots and lots of people would die. most of them not billionaires.
Welcome to Fedi! We're building a new way to be socially. Dig in! If you can't find a particular community that you want, build it, and others will add in, too. Cheers!
All the people praising Luigi say "this does nothing" when someone suggests an alternative to just shooting CEOs. Well you know what did nothing? Shooting Brian Thompson did nothing. United Health Group just hired a new CEO to run his division, and the real oligarchs continued looting the country even harder than before.
So no, they don't feel threatened. The top oligarchs like Elon barely even registered it. If you wanna know what they're afraid of, look at where they spend money - buying politicians and opposing attempts to regulate them and break up their monopolies. Lucky for them there is no well funded lobby for consumers, people denied health care, or even the poor and middle class generally. Tell the next Luigi to work on that if you really wanna scare these people.
BCBS reversed their decision to not cover anesthesia like a day after Thompson got deposed. It turns out direct action is actually effective
they were quick to quash the news around luigi, hence the momentum kinda died down, social media and MSM worked hard to turn the tide back to culture wars.
Witty is the head CEO of UHC, and hemsely is the Chairman of the group. Witty doesnt even care, in fact hes elated because they were all being investigated for insider trading, and thompson is a threat to the whole company because he can turn on them in a dime.
