Also looking at your comment history and the modlogs, it looks like you like to deliberately push people’s buttons and troll. For example posting non-vegan recipes in vegan groups is making you look not credible.
As much as a nuisance db0 and their co-admins are, I am not gonna side with trolls either.
My trolling of Vegans is exclusively a response to Vegans demanding everyone surrender eggs and never eat meat on any occasion.
If you want to be vegan thats fine but if your idea of helping others make that choice is to insult them then fuck off.
Why do you think you can insult people without being insulted yourself?
That’s nice, deary
If you want to stop animal suffering that’s fine just don’t insult people who support it
200iq take. Brb paying to watch some dog pit fights, it’s my way of life so you’re not allowed to comment on it.
For a hypothetical, if I were a dog fight frequenter then this comment would make me want to do more dogfighting, not less.
That’s your prerogative, but that doesn’t make people wrong for saying you’re a pos for doing it.

Dipshits being dipshits shouldn’t alter your moral compass. That’s “owning the libs” level discourse. You gotta leave that behind.
I find the more militant vegans to be annoying, but I wouldn’t go out of my way to troll them. They’re not worth the effort, and the end goal (less suffering, even if I don’t privilege animal suffering as equivalent to human suffering) aligns with mine. That they’re going about it in a potentially counterproductive way doesn’t mean I join the opposition.
OP is on a tilt goddamn.

Okay this is getting a bit off-topic I guess but I get what you mean but the logic when taken to the extreme is silly and non-functional and creates more animal- and human suffering.
For one hunting as a way to control deer populations as controlling the population is a must since one of our ancestors went and replaced wolves hereabouts and bringing them back (I wouldn’t mind it) wouldn’t be as good population control and also not good for the wolves. Also also a deer suffers more when run down by a wolf than when one-shot killed by a rifle.
I support vegan products all the time and don’t really consume non-game meats if at all possible.
But like I said, offtopic. I agree with you that I wouldn’t go and troll the vegans, I do like arguing with them, as their ideology, while kinda naive, is at its core trying to help animals. And that I do too. So I just want to make them better at it and thus point out the flaws in their worldview. Not to mock them, to help them.
our ancestors went and replaced wolves … bringing them back … not good for the wolves
Umm yeah I’m going to stand firmly on the platform that wild populations that were devastated by human intervention benefit from the alleviation of that devastation.
“devastated by”?
Please do give an example. Humans have been the apex predator around these parts for literally thousands of years. We manage the deer. We don’t devastate it. If you threw in a pack of wolves, never even mind about the social effects of throwing them into what is now a population center has, the wolves don’t have an understanding of how many deer are supposed to be killed and how many aren’t.
I would love more wolves around my area, I’m not afraid of them at all. But it’s just not feasible anymore.
Might be hard for you to understand but not all human actions destroy nature.
I spend my time arguing with Tankies, I’m not going to sit around on my high horse when there is work to be done digging trenches.
Besides, I shared a nice recipe with them, I didn’t insult their mothers.

I legitimately have no clue what that’s supposed to mean.
I am not above lowering myself
The only thing that accomplishes is you lowering yourself.
It would be like opposing gay marriage “for the lulz”
Either you have a legitimate moral stance on an issue, or you don’t. Playing the troll on an issue simply because other people annoy you means you don’t care about the issue.
Why would I ever oppose gay marriage? That’s just idiocy.
There are no objective legitimate moral stances, only better or worse.
What was your comment?
They’re all gone now, lol. Basically just argued with Tankies a bunch about what “Left” is, talked about how DNC have had 48 or less senators for over 13 years, what policies they’ve passed, what their explicit policy stances are.
Usually you can see removed comments in mod logs.
Edit: Looks like they instance banned + remove all posts.
If you argue with certain people who call everyone “Blue MAGA” in certain .world communities, one of the mods there gets butthurt and bans you.
Also, watch out for ban baiting. These sad little children mass report to admins and get your account banned if you disagree with them.
Honestly, the Lemmy side of things is doomed to fail, because the developers are explicitly pro-Russian tankies and the instance owners either support them directly or indirectly, in World’s case it is directly. Eventually Piefed will overtake them and they will death spiral.
Either they’re pro-tankie or too chickenshit to walk away from them. I used to mod a few of the larger comms on .world. And because of this I was privy to a lot of the mod/admin discord drama.
The .world admins are scared to lose the traffic. It was discussed. They’d rather align with pedo-defending authoritarian bootlickers than do the right thing by disassociating from them. And most of the mods all bow to a few of the louder ones with regards to how things should be handled.
That’s one of the many reasons I walked away from that bullshit. It’s no different than Reddit moderation with these people. Only it’s a different badge pinned on the the same over-inflated ego’s chest.
D’beezer sure has a lot of authoritarian tendencies for being The Anarchist Instance™️
Mentioned it before, but no anarchist will leap to defend authoritarian states like dbzer0 regularly does.
