One part of it is simply profit. Everything is about attention these days and whatever gets attention is being amplified. The other part is deliberate, though. All major media are run by the oligarchy and their main mission is to preserve the status quo. Constant distraction is one of their weapons.
I don’t even think they want to preserve the status quo. They want to move back to serfdom.
They call it technofeudalism or corporate monarchy and yeah that's what they want
I cannot for the life of me understand why you’re getting downvotess.
She is actively stalking and harassing a user and making shit up about him. That's why. That's not her username, it became that when she was banned for lying and trolling.
Damn y’all having vendetta wars on fucking Lemmy is wild as fuck.
Right? She was told to stop and took that as rape threat. Fucking bizarre.
She even went back to my account to spam a long diatribe, and then got banned by another mod team.
She's not acting in good faith.
Because I'm actively being brigaded and harassed by misogynists.
lol actually? To what end are they doing this on Lemmy like the downvotes literally mean nothing here. Just pure stupidity.
Because I embarrassed them in front of others and their egos can't take the shame. I had a list of some of the threads of obscene misogynistic behavior I've seen on Lemmy and it included mods.
