Yes, unfortunately the admin hasn’t had time to address it. They do now, and should be able to update it this weekend.

I think I may have been the only mod to volunteer who was already active on lemmy beforehand, and thus would stick around regardless. The others, I suspect, may have returned to reddit. Most of them had not been active even when I volunteered a few months ago.

I’ve noticed this as well, but unfortunately I can’t give a timeline of when it will be resolved.

but legally speaking, they’re doing their job and her notifying illegal immigrants about ICE is definitely illegal.

I’m sure it was illegal to alert Jews who were about to be rounded up by Gestapo, or to hide them in their house. It was also illegal to help slaves escape to the north via the underground railroad, but people who ignored those laws to instead act on their morals to do what’s right are now regarded as heroic, and the ones who used the argument they were ‘just following orders’ are now seen as cowardly and vile scum, many of them were even executed for participating in horrific crimes against humanity, so that defense doesn’t hold any water.

There is no need to be hostile toward someone who is clearly on our side. If they weren’t they wouldn’t mention the other abuses Walmart commits.

Using it gains nothing, but does alienate people with disabilities from wanting to join the cause if they feel it’s filled with people who use their disability to denigrate others. There is genuinely nothing to gain from using it over other insults, it only results in a net-loss.

Mass public protests are certainly more effective at shaping public opinion than quiet anger in your home.

We don’t allow that insult as it breaks rule #1. There are better words to use that do not insult an innocent group of people with its use.

If you edit your comment to a different insult, I won’t need to remove it.

It’s been a new name for each one, I guess to appeal to different groups for different problems. The ‘Hands Off!’ one for stopping the dismantling of Social Security did succeed in getting massive attendance from older people, so it seems to be working.

Thank you for joining us!

That’s pretty standard right-wing propaganda against the protests, and they’ve been making that claim since they started. It’s intended for their base so they can easily dismiss how popular the protests have been by making it appear like a sham or democrat conspiracy, when in (their warped) reality, Trump is super popular so the only way these protest happen is if people are paid to show up.

They’ve made similar propaganda to explain the popularity and crowd sizes of Bernie’s Anti Oligarchy rallies.

I do agree that it’s less eye grabbing or punchy compared to the previous ‘No Kings’ protest, which was immediately understandable in comparison.

Thanks for joining us!

It’s based on a John Lewis quote: “Never, ever be afraid to make some noise and get in good trouble, necessary trouble.”

Thanks! Though from from what I understand degenerate has also been picked up by neo-nazi’s due to its origins being from eugenics.

But at this point I feel like that scene in Letter Kenny. I get your intent 😅

Hi, mod here. Could edit your insult to something else so that it complies with Rule 1?

Seems to work on my end.

Thank you.

Hi. Could you remove the insult from your comment (even if I think it’s justified) to align with Rule #1?

Thanks!

Solid recommendation!
