Okay so you admit there are sites on the block list

Bruh, you were the only one denying that.

and the mods are violating their own rule

Would you like to quote where ‘their own rule’ says that only sites on the blocklist will ever be removed?

Oh look, here’s the actual rule:

Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.

Obvious right or left wing sources will be removed at the mods discretion. We have an actively updated blocklist, which you can see here: https://lemmy.world/post/2246130 if you feel like any website is missing, contact the mods.

The most I’m getting out of that is that they say the blocklist is actively updated, when it’s not been touched in a year.

My best friend once described my style as ‘techno-hobo’, so I like to think I’m cyberpunk adjacent.

This is the only thing that could save New V*gas

Maybe I should just commit to the aesthetic. Be the cool in the dystopia I want to see.

You become so anal about taking everything literally.

I’m sorry for seeing a difference between “What’s the point of a blocklist that has no sites” and “What’s the point of a blocklist that has a few sites”. A normal person might look at those two arguments and come to two entirely different conclusions regarding the implications of each one; the former implying that a blocklist is literally serving no purpose (but is contradicted by the evidence in this particular case), and the latter decrying a blocklist simply for not being as exhaustive as you’d like it to be (which is a much less compelling argument than the former implication of literal uselessness).

You gonna clarify how Fox News being non-preferred relates to your argument, or nah? My guess is nah.

My penis would appear to be in danger from all sides 😔

It contains four websites

You may note that “four websites” =/= “no websites”. Advanced math, I know. Also, it’s five websites, even if we exclude the link-shortener bitly.

and allows Fox News.

How is that relevant to your argument?

What is the point of the blocklist if it contain no websites

It literally contains several websites, as noted by your own screenshot in the OP.

and the moderators decide on the fly what they want to block?

A blocklist is not an exhaustive resource of unreliable sources that will not be accepted, it just hits the most common unreliable sources.

If the mods decide a source unreliable they should add it to their blocklist.

How long are you expecting the blocklist to be, then?

Almost two feet, if Google’s conversion thing is correct.

Source says the blade length is 58.4 cm

Bruh, I explicitly made the point of “Being a small part of the problem does not absolve people of being part of the problem”, and your response is

So we’re discussing a tiny portion of people now to avoid being called out for the authoritarian vote bullshit now, eh?

Between the fact that we were discussing a ‘tiny portion of people’ from the very start and that ‘authoritarian vote bullshit’ is a vague phrase that makes no solid assertions except “vote bad >:(” for some reason, you’ve said nothing of substance unless there’s some means of clarifying. I offered you a chance to clarify. You declined.

Don’t really know how much more help you want here. I’m not here to spoonfeed you, guy.

So we’re discussing a tiny portion of people now to avoid being called out for the authoritarian vote bullshit now, eh?

What is that supposed to even mean?

Pro-Israel voters absolutely voted for Trump.

Worse. Applebees fries taste like stale bread.

Findings indicate greater heterogeneity in support for transgender service between heterosexual, LGB, and male- and female-identified service members. LGB and women service members reported the greatest support (81% and 75% respectively) while heterosexual and male service members indicated the lowest support of transgender service (56% and 62% respectively). Among racial/ethnic groups, Black and Latinx service members reported the highest support for transgender people serving (69% and 75% respectively) while 64% of white service members indicated their support. Despite some differences within these groups, the majority of participants in our sample (66%) indicated that they supported transgender people serving in the armed forces.

YDI. A blocklist is not an exhaustive resource of unreliable sources that will not be accepted, it just hits the most common unreliable sources.
