Gotta say.. it's a good feeling to login on a social media network without Nazi's and trolls!

@stux Still think it a great proof of concept that -as far as I know- Truth Social is a fediverse (Mastodon???) implementation (shunned by everyone else)
@photovince Ish yes, they removed federation all together
Otherwise we blocked them to hell

@photovince @stux It's a fork of Mastodon that uses parts of Poast's (a weird right wing Fediverse instance administered by someone who's also involved in Truth Social) UI code as far as I know. They also violated Mastodon's AGPL license multiple times: https://web.archive.org/web/20250318074319/https://www.dailydot.com/debug/truth-social-poast-donald-trump/

No MAGA nutjob in sight and the so called President would be instant banned if he showed his clown face here
goood stuff Fedi! 
Not only would the president be banned, i think any instance that accepts to host him would be defederated from most

goood stuff Fedi! I remember a year or so ago when fake (or real, who cares) Elon Musk accounts were trying to get purchase here and got deleted into the sun instantly.

goood stuff Fedi! you can still find #MAGA accounts on the fedi
they are two day old accounts with no followers
and when i find them, i report them, and *poof*
bliss
my only sadness is when, such as yesterday, i hit submit, and i got "record not found"
because in the time between starting and ending my report, a mod had already taken care of them off of other people's reports
and so:
1. thank you #mods and #admins of the #fediverse
2. thank you fellow mastodonics for using that report button

One possibly underappreciated part of fedi is a much higher mod to user ratio than most social media because of the federated design and higher sense of ownership people feel for their instances

well said
corporate #socialMedia is about making money
this has two terrible effects:
1. #moderation is a cost center for them. if you want to make money, you want to cut costs. therefore, it's cheaper for them to say "freeze peach!", decimate the #mod dept, and let #bigotry and #disinfo run wild
2. we say "don't feed the #trolls" but the unfortunate human baseline behavior is that controversy drives clicks, eyeballs, engagement. therefore, bigots and disinfo is *profitable*

@benroyce how odd, mods will just ban peeps if they claim to like the US president?
That seems completely batshit, can I get people insta banned for simping for democrats? That's really annoying here.
America seems the problem from what I can see, plebs arguing over red or blue lies from the war machine, and sex abuse machine, is sad to see in action.

#MAGA is ignorance and indecency
so you're shifting the topic
we simply don't want to deal with "WHAT IS A WOMAN" or "VACCINES KILL" lying malicious shit
that this cuts out #trump enjoyers is happenstance, not the main point
it's not our fault the average donald trump cultist is a bigot and a moron
and you know that, and you don't care
or you hilariously believe there is anything honest and well-intentioned in MAGA land
MAGA is stupid bigoted losers, patsies for a grift

fucking zombie MAGA chuds
no idea what easy marks they are for plutocrat grift
so happy to see bigotry prevail
too fucking stupid to see how they are used to their own detriment
and they think they are "winning"
grand tragedy as farce

@benroyce @MasterMischief I don't think I'm a maga chud.
Trump's a known fuckwit long before his venture into US politics, that he's the best the US can offer twice now says rather a lot imo.
The issue not so much what colour of lies your prefer on the telly, and more just the idea that 50% of the US are insta banned as fucktwits on the fediverse.
If that's the case then insgtabanning anyone pushing blue lies from the US administration might make this place a little more balanced.

@benroyce @MasterMischief is calling millions of people zombies not a little dehumanizing?
It's what we called flag shaggers here as kids in school, but seems a little uncouth round these parts.

i stopped reading here
trump is president because he was voted in
who voted him in?
so what is the root problem?
do you understand?
you think you're successfully topic shifting here away from MAGA by stupidly, or as a stupid troll maneuver, avoiding their obvious blame for delivering this shit?

is calling a moronic bigot a moronic bigot unfair?
if you say so
i don't say so
your comment is simply a demonstration of your idiocy, or more likely, your dishonesty
so i won't call you dumb, i'll call you a weak troll

@benroyce @MasterMischief Calling Trump a moronic bigot is fine, dude loves the attention.
Labeling millions upon millions of voters that have choice a between red or blue lies in the US bigots seems profoundly stupid, full on 'MERICA' nimby shit.
I don't care if you call me a weak troll, you are helping me to understand the nuts & bolts of this US politics fueled echo chamber.
I can chant 'orange man bad' with the best of them, but how these spaces evolve is of interest.

i still don't understand you
donald trump is president because millions voted for him (or didn't vote, but that's another topic)
why do you think that pretending there is no cause and effect here has probative value?
at best, you're simply demonstrating, and sticking to, a weak troll maneuver
at worst, you genuinely believe the pieces of shit that gave us donald trump are magically immune from criticism for that choice
why do you think that weak maneuver works?
in my coffee!
