Honestly, I’m not mad, its just funny how state/corporate sponsored violence is all okay but a pleb making a joke (its not even a real threat c’mon) is not okay.

It will happen to anyone who uses .world sooner or later.
Wasn’t the entire point of moving to the Fediverse that we can easily switch instances if one goes bad?
Why are people still on .world lmao
The large user base, and a couple of communities who don’t care about current events. But it’s not an admin thing anyway so - ? Does it really matter what instance it’s on?
I dont’ know what community that was in, but if it was one of the usual suspects, I’d say move to a different community. Not sure what .world has to do with it since it wasn’t an admin thing, just some mod being mod. !Politics, I assume?
Inertia
I got banned from world for similar. Also got banned for stating a fact: democrat joe Lieberman single-handedly killed the single payer option during the passage of obamacare/aca.
The libs can’t cope.
Fuck lemmy.world
We need to move communities off LW.
Lemmy is way dominated on those bootlicking batards

If one protects CEOs aren’t they the one advocating violence against the common people?
Yes, advocating for the killing of children in the most literal sense
I think World just need to accept that they’re pissing into the wind at this point, I’ve never seen a platform so united on something.
Try to praise Spez anywhere on Lemmy
That would be viewed as obvious rage bait on most of the platform.

To be fair, the post is a news report covering the CEO’s public mass death threat, not an endorsement of it.
Well the single minded American people are attacking random McDonald’s workers, they’re in the clear.
Bunch of sensitive cucks.
Maybe they misread depose as ‘dispose’ idk .
neglected assistance is slightly different from violence though.
But insurance is supposed to payout when an insured person needs it. The only claims they should deny are fraudulent claims. There is an agreement, so neglecting the agreement is still liability.
Like a home care worker being employed and assigned to an elderly person, then decide to go on an hour phone call and not making sure the elderly person doesn’t like fall down or anything, then they finish their hour-long phone call and find that the person they were supposed to be taking care of have fallen down the stairs. Like the home care worker didn’t cause them to die, but its practically the same. There’s probably lawsuits and probably also criminal charges.
But in the CEO situation, the ananlogy would be more like the elderly person ask you to help them walk, and you just refuse to do your job, then they fall down the stairs and you don’t even call an ambulance while watching them die. That’s essentially what the healthcare executives are doing. They are neglecing to provide the service they agreed to while taking premiums. That should be criminal.
yeah, i’m not saying it’s not criminal and bad behavior, but it’s not violence. (it was called violence in the OP)
“violence” comes from “violation” which we can agree is the case when unethical insurance providers deny doctor-recommended treatment.
Denying healthcare is violence. Just because there’s layers of paper pushers in between the patient and the corporation denying care doesn’t change things.
Engels said it best:
When one individual inflicts bodily injury upon another such that death results, we call the deed manslaughter; when the assailant knew in advance that the injury would be fatal, we call his deed murder. But when society places hundreds of proletarians in such a position that they inevitably meet a too early and an unnatural death, one which is quite as much a death by violence as that by the sword or bullet; when it deprives thousands of the necessaries of life, places them under conditions in which they cannot live – forces them, through the strong arm of the law, to remain in such conditions until that death ensues which is the inevitable consequence – knows that these thousands of victims must perish, and yet permits these conditions to remain, its deed is murder just as surely as the deed of the single individual; disguised, malicious murder, murder against which none can defend himself, which does not seem what it is, because no man sees the murderer, because the death of the victim seems a natural one, since the offence is more one of omission than of commission. But murder it remains.
Perspective can definitely change when one experiences needless suffering or death, or watches a loved one go through that
Meh, if you’re still on that comm at this point you deserve it
Is there an alternative community for US News? There is !AskUSA@discuss.online for USA discussion, !world@quokk.au for world news, but not sure about US news
Maybe !usa@midwest.social ? Although that admin is known to be power tripping: https://feddit.org/post/5508290
There is a not a really good alt yet, but I personally have it blocked due to other issues
Alright
A successful alt would need a high level of traffic, or posting many new things a day. Some have one, some have the other.
Would be delighted to find one
I just double checked, !usa@midwest.social has 5k monthly active users, seems okay.
