Diplomacy is when you make inflammatory shitposts all week
My understanding is that it is self care for this person. That’s at least what they said when asked, it helps them decompress or something like that.
I wish they’d find a better hobby
libs never should have been introduced to therapeutic language
“ummm actually wrecking is self-care, you can’t criticize me!”
This is my emotional support anti-communism!
Context? I imagine he runs lemmy.dbzer0.com since he must own the dbzer0.com domain name. Is this about some brigading coming from there?
Check out footnote 8. Most
guy I’ve ever seenFootnote 8 where?
Edit: I figured it out. It’s on the knowyourmeme page.
So they haven’t changed at all?

In fairness, you did start going on about how you were an anarchist on that thread on TT – and subsequently came across as a spotty little virgin. Who the FUCK goes around calling themselves an anarchist? In fact, you must have realised that you looked like a complete cockjockey, because you edited your profile to remove the anarchy reference before you posed a screenshot of your profile in this blog.
If you wandered into a pub, and said, “hi I am an anarchist”, people would assume that you were a bit of a tit. If you got upset that everybody though you were a bit of a tit, and then started blogging about how the pub is shit, then people would have been spot on in their assumption that you were a bit of a tit.
See how stuff works
Oh, this whole thing I contributed to three weeks ago was started by @Luisp@lemmy.dbzer0.com: Is the instance hexbear conservative?

Wow, you’re not mad at all.
Ok mods you really have to tell me which rules that comment broke now.

I had honestly forgotten about that :D
“sectarian” lol.
it is sectarian tho
I mean, the whole post violates Rule 7, but sure it’s me saying stating a typical anarchist ideology that’s the problem :D
which whole post, this one?
and nah its dumb af to be sectarian, the ideologies are nearly identical, most arguments are semantics or order of importance.
oppa gangnam style
Twitter has a Person of the Day. Hexbear has a Person of the Week. And every week I am further convinced of the need to embrace blanqui thought.
How come? A social revolution cannot be delivered from without society.

Brigading
420th Tankie Brigade, Order of Kutuzov 2nd class, Hexbear Division, 69th Rifle Corps, 3rd Shock Army, 1st Belorussian Posting Front.
For people out of the loop, it started with this
Be on the lookout for CIA propaganda! Tankies LOVE dissenters!

What? Posting memes and blog posts in my own community? Nobody told me that’s a faux pas! TIL
DAE TIL? AITA? AM(almost)A!

Funnily enough, I didn’t even know I was the first one, but I somehow doubt this term became popular because of my obscure blog.
If it weren’t you it would’ve been someone else so it doesn’t matter too much. But I hope you’ve since renounced this position given that it’s only purpose is to prevent criticism, and criticism is a core of activism.
In essence brigading is just people sharing content but with a negative reaction to it. Nobody has a problem with sharing content when the reaction is a positive one, it’s encouraged in fact.
Anti-brigading rules is used almost entirely to suppress the marginalised and maintain the status quo in any given community. It’s entirely just “you aren’t allowed to share our content with other people if you’re sharing it with a negative reaction”.
EDIT: Not sure if it’s referring to you or someone else since banned now hmmm. Might be misunderstanding who the post is about?
Brigading can also be a bad force such as a fascist movement coming in and down voting all good content, or concern trolling etc.
I think as a term it’s useful to express the action. How to properly deal with Brigading if at all depends on who’s doing it to whom and why.
Brigading can also be a bad force such as a fascist movement coming in and down voting all good content, or concern trolling etc.
So? Then you ban them for being fascist fucks. Not sharing the content with each other.
As a term it’s not useful because its very fucking existence enables the practice of disallowing it. What it is in practice is censorship of criticism veiled in bullshit terminology to normalise the action of preventing it.
You can’t always ban your way out of a brigade and depending on the site it’s a useful way to describe the ongoing situation so as to how make the mods more vigilant for things like endless sockpuppets and concern trolling.
Yes you can. I moderate communities with millions of subscribers that are political and receive fascist brigades literally all the time. It is in fact healthier for the community to do this too. The people advocating for other methods are either lazy fuckwits or sympathise with the fash.

You should tell /r/anarchism mods that then.
Want to describe exactly what their approach is? Hard to gather what you’re getting at.
I’ll give an example though, /r/gamingcirclejerk, where we regularly intentionally go out of our way to rile up various groups because it’s both funny and effective at manipulating the wider gaming media. Our approach is explicitly not to lock threads (cowards lock) and instead to allow the fuckwits to post. They are then banned. It takes some time for those bans to process but the community explicitly knows we will get around to every single one of them. The community is grateful and approves of this, they want them banned, they know it makes the community cleaner because alt accounts for ban evasion are a pain in the ass and getting caught by the system doing ban evasion gets all of your accounts permabanned. Trans people in particular don’t want the threads locked that rile up the transphobes, even if it means they have to see some transphobic shit, because they actually want to know that the community is properly cleared out of transphobes. Doing these proper clearouts gets you to an eventual stage where you can have a community with 1million+ subscribers and pro trans content will have tens of thousands of upvotes.
There is absolutely no benefit to NOT putting this kind of work in. It attracts and fosters a better crowd.
And when the ““brigades”” are absolutely massive because you’ve caused the entire gaming world to go crazy like when we caused that whole Harry Potter shit earlier in the year, it just ended up helping us to clear out even larger quantities of problem users. Gaming journalism, all the streamers, etc etc. We had fucking millions pour into the sub through all that shit. No problem though, just gotta work through it.

Not really rent free while you’re still posting is it
“Brigading” is a core
thought. You’re an immortal. Embrace your position.Wait, Idk you’re the one being dunked on?
Usually, it’s someone from Lemmy.world, lem.ee or beehaw
I have committed cardinal sins.
And posted straight through it, too. As is tradition.
Posts to right of them, Posts to left of them, Posts in front of them Volleyed and thundered; Stormed at with meme and bit, Bold of tonge and wit, Into the jaws of Death, Into the mouth of hell Rode db0.I’m not quite sure what this means? What’s this tradition you speak of?
It’s a facetious way of saying that it’s common for people who are getting dogpiled online to simply respond by posting harder.
The great motivator
Posting is praxis

You’re a pathetic slime of a human being and one day you’re gonna wake up and realize you wasted your life moderating nerd forums full of braindead NPCs like you who rage about made up nerd etiquette like “brigading”. I’d tell you to touch grass but you’ve been doing this shit for so long that it’s probably too late and you’ll never learn not to be an insufferable worm.
