Many news outlets’ pontificators were incensed that anyone would voice frustration with health insurance when an industry CEO has fallen.

    This had previously been posted to !politics@lemmy.world (https://lemmy.world/post/23131889) but was removed as “not politics.” Personally, I think pointing out instances of manufactured consent very much is politics, but ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

      Because .world admins, and by extension their mods who have to enforce their policies, are corpo bootlickers

        It does seem clear from the messages they write which, coincidentally sound entirely like Reddit marketing tripe, that they are gunning for a corporate buyout and golden parachutes, for a Lemmy instance, which is laughable.

            I’m assuming their admin messages.

            I left when they defederated pirating communities.

                They specifically block the pirating communities. You can’t access them from .world

                  Oh that’s interesting. Yeah, I can’t see them with my .world account. I didn’t realize they could block individual communities for all users.
