@Mastodon @hpod16 @EUCommission Nice!

[naturemc@mastodon.online]

@Mastodon I see only "post pending"

edit: at 15:18, our small instance mastodon.online has got it, too!

[hpod16@eupolicy.social]

@Mastodon
Oh wow, a repost from Mastodon?
I’m honoured!

[naturemc@mastodon.online]

@hpod16 I see only that the author (you) didn't give the approval for the quote yet ... @Mastodon

[leibi@disobey.net]

@Mastodon I would love to see it, too.

[hpod16@eupolicy.social]

@NatureMC
Normally people should be able to quote me, in my default settings.
Maybe my server is lagging behind

[dcdeejay@mastodon.online]

@hpod16 I can see the quote 🥳 @NatureMC

@Mastodon leaving bluesky and Facebook links is a giant hipocrisy.

[baxterrabbit@mastodon.social]

This is actually pretty cool

[naturemc@mastodon.online]

@dcdeejay *now* I see it, too. @hpod16

[hpod16@eupolicy.social]

@NatureMC @dcdeejay
thanks for updating!

so the way the real world works is:

if someone does something good, applaud them

if someone does something good, and you reply with demands and derision:

1. you look like an entitled asshole
2. you destroy any desire for cooperation from the target of your endless criticism

this mode of behavior seems to be a big problem with a lot of people

#toxicIdealism kills whatever it is you care about in this world

give them time to do more good

don't jump in with nastiness

@benroyce @Mastodon they did something good? By removing an icon to X account to virtue signal? Give me a break.

[benroyce@mastodon.social]

@Random9 @Mastodon

damn

account suspended

🥴

so for context for those confused:

the now nuked account replied to this post

https://mastodon.social/@Mastodon/116539053870420123

with something like "yeah but they (EUCommision) still have a facebook and a (some other i forget) link" and called them hypocrites, so i responded to that

just so you understand the context of my post

[random9@101010.pl]

@benroyce @Mastodon what? XD

[benroyce@mastodon.social]

@Random9 @Mastodon

welcome back!

for the record, i don't think your account should have been nuked

[dgoldsmith@mastodon.social]

@Mastodon @hpod16 It's a link to the account's profile page. It would be nice if it used the new follow button, but, progress!

[random9@101010.pl]

@benroyce @Mastodon that's the weakness of the platform. We are dependent on the whims of the reddit moderators. But for some reason my angry appeal was accepted. Probably a mistake.

[benroyce@mastodon.social]

@Random9 @Mastodon

alright then back to the argument:

you're not helping anything. except dopamine hits for your ego

in this world there is slow plodding movement towards better

that's it

when someone or something creeps towards better you applaud that

if instead you stand on the dumb metric of perfection and yell "not perfect! you suck!" that's just immature edgelord shit

what's the fucking point?

if all you want to do is vibe like that... ok?

you desire that no one take you seriously?

[random9@101010.pl]

@benroyce @Mastodon ok xD

there is nothing good about what they did. They are not so stupid to fully remove an X account with almost 2 milion followers.

They just removed one icon. Why? Why not all of the big tech platform icons? Because it's a virtue signaling - hey look, we don't like people with different opinions! Look how nice, diverse and inclusive we are!

And they didn't just remove them. They announced it like it was meaningful change. It's not. That's why it's just virtue signaling. They don't have balls to delete the account.

They project how "good" they are without doing the deed. Children's behavior.
