I was banned from subreddits more often for opposing the open advocation of totalitarianism than anything else.

"Meat" describes wild venison and grass raised cattle as well as factory farmed meat. Factory farmed meat is akin to an animal holocaust, sure, but what happens to deer if we stop eating them is worse than that. First the population explodes, and with increased proximity to each other, diseases such as CWD also explode amongst the deer population. Good grazing land dwindles as deer slowly starve to death while a growing portion of them live as literal zombies due to CWD. The best case scenario is that the wild predators return and torture them all to death by eating them ass-first. There HAS to be a predator to prevent this, and humans are the more humane predator. As a side note, all of those happy grass raised cattle simply disappear without their consumption, because modern cattle cannot survive in the wild.
Though I wish this were true it is not. Romanian authorities, specifically Ramona Bolla of DIICOT confirmed that the tweet had nothing to do with locating him.
Reddit had a lot of "zombie" content: old popular content that was scraped and reposted by karma farming bots. If you spent way too much time lurking, you'd start to notice that you'd seen almost every post before (probably 6 months prior). It definitely has more real content than Lemmy currently does, which is why we must nourish and protect our precious little sapling of a content aggregator.
Reminds me of Google trying to force everyone with any kind of Google account to use Google+. If you had an account on YouTube, it'd convert that to a Google account, automatically create a Google+ account for it, and start posting your activities to it by itself. I know a ton of people who had active Google+ accounts they didn't even know about.
How many times must they be sued for this exact thing? It would be nice if they faced some real consequences this time.
One of the most prolific power mods of all time may have been Ghislaine Maxwell. There's quite a bit of circumstantial evidence to suggest so.
Edit: I'm adding a link to an objective, comprehensive analysis of the theory here
Couldn't agree more. People here need to be okay with the possibility that Reddit continues to be popular even though it will continue to be the same scummy company that treats its users like cattle. Those of us who care about that kind of stuff are a minority of the users. There are likely tens of thousands of people who lurk Reddit, click the ads, and don't even know about the API debacle... and that's okay, we should all let it go.

An actual human sex trafficker (allegedly)
I hope the extreme polarization and just general toxicity doesn't last here. I get that Reddit is perfectly designed to split people into tribes, and I hope that's not true of this site as well.
