I won’t abide stanning for the billionaire class or calls to impotent civility. I very much have in my heart EXACTLY the spirit of what /r/HailCorporate was and if you doubt that, you are exactly the type of corporatist cuck that I created this community to reveal.
Now to characterize your privileged perspective:
“I have no sympathy for marginalized groups, quite literally pleading for their lives. If they wanted my sympathy, they should have done so more politely!”
You’re arguing semantics here, weird nerd. Who cares what you call what I did to bring this community into reality? I pressed a few buttons and the thing that was in my mind now exists in the world and is impossible for you to do anything about.
Did you want to add anything of value to the conversation?
I have run into too many instances of billionaire defenders on lemmy.world and kbin.social for this community NOT to exist. I get into strange arguments (where, from my perspective, I am just defending common sense or open standards) with frothing fascist, astroturfing fanbois about their chosen billionaire and I felt like I had nowhere to go, “look at this fucking corporate cuck”. ;)
735 would take like 20 minutes in parallel if all of the wage slaves got together wherever each billionaire is and gave them what they have coming. And boy do they have it coming!
Those who make peaceful revolution impossible (by buying up our politicians, governments, and news-media) will make violent revolution inevitable.

As a moderator who did that and stopped, that’s not the case. What it actually was: we didn’t want to go back to Reddit ever again. So, we desperately tried to lift the quality posts and communities from stubborn holdouts to have that quality come with us.
IMO, it was a failure because people were so anti-bot. But that’s why I was taking part in moving everything over from there. I had no financial motives. I was just hoping to 100% boycott Reddit and was looking to draw their communities away from that utterly enshittified platform.
