Hi I just wanted to let ya’ll know that user ChadMcTruth@lemmy.world seems to have created a “free speech” community, could also be read as “freeze peach” as stated in the sidebar. A lot of their content is either trolling, a handful of conspiracy theories, and even a few calls to action. It is my opinion that this community isn’t permitted on this instance.
The creator of the community also appears to have many alt accounts, same username, different instances they all moderate his community.
They’re the kind of person to say something racist and then when other people are upset, they claim it was just a joke and you’re being too sensitve. Its not satire and not a joke, just racism, sexism, transphobia and bigotry disguised as a joke. Even if it were satire, it just emboldens people who really believe those things.
I looked over the posts and I saw nothing besides over the top fucked up points of view expressed in a way intended to call out how fucked they are. If someone wrote “I like murder because it’s fun and not wrong!” Would you assume they’re actually a murderer trying to pretend to be joking?
to be fair i am trying to give off the vibe that im someone who actually believes it pretending to be someone who doesnt believe it pretending to actually believe it when i dont and then being upfront about not actually believing it when stuff like this comes up but then pretending that the apology was satire when i need to reinforce the faux authenticity of the community and then of course ultimately looping back around and having to admit that that too was satire in an endless loop of post post post irony
I don’t get this one
I’m pretty sure it’s satire, but if you’re satirically are being a nazi the fun stops for me.
The sidebar with the rules is worth a good laugh though.
Here’s my interaction with them outside the community: https://lemmy.world/comment/15208235
To be fair I haven’t seen them pretend to be a nazi anywhere, so I thought it was rather tame.
tsiad/chud and i are entirely different people
you earned a patriot award for defending democracy and exorcising your freeze peach
Gobless 🙏
I blocked the acct the other day, when they intentionally misread multiple of my comments and put words in my mouth i never said.
It was not satire, it was trolling
Edit- apparently i was too quick to block because they did apologize
this is slander i would never apologize
It’s a satire account and community.
So was /r/TheDonald
I think this is a very important thing to point out, “it’s a joke” up until it stops being a joke.
One of their mods has already been banned from here for being a Nazi, so it makes me question how much of a joke it really is.
and r/GamersRiseUp, and that one about “frens” (can’t remember exactly what it was called)
It’s definitely worth at least keeping this community on the radar. I had a look, and I don’t foresee it going well.
Flat earth also started out as satire.
It’s innocent fun until it isn’t anymore.
I’m unsure about how I’d personally act on this? Donald really was a joke (until he wasn’t). Flat earth “conspiracy” was funny (until people took it seriously). Nazis, …?! Kinda not funny? Maybe if it’s just “shit nazis say” type stuff? Admittedly I’ve not looked at the community in question yet, not in the mood for it. So my input is just based on vibes. I originally just wanted to add the flat earth part.
I admittedly wasn’t there for the Donald but wasn’t it pretty obvious it wasn’t satire? For this one to not be satire, I think they’d be playing some weird 4d chess or something
It’s a satirical community by the looks of it. They don’t really mean what they say, and are in fact making fun of people acting the way they are acting unironically.
In the current climate, that’s not a significant difference. We don’t need people who are just nazis “ironically” or as a “joke”
If someone likes to pretend being a nazi, they’re a nazi
Agreed, this isn’t the kind of thing that should fly or be okay because the person who said the bad thing said they were joking.

Do you need a laugh track to understand comedy?
The first step in the alt-right pipeline is almost always “jokes”.
“Jokes” here seems to me like a cheap excuse not to get banned or criticized for it.
Precisely
unaccurate
There is a difference in claiming something is a joke that sounds like an authentic viewpoint (Dave Chappelle on trans people) and a viewpoint that is expressed in a way that calls attention to how bad it is. I am confused by the number of people who don’t see that difference. I feel like watching a single episode of the older Simpsons episodes would illustrate that difference perfectly.
The first step to becoming a dull clown is always not understanding jokes. Feel free to take it personally.
Reminds me of this nazi with his nazi moustache
why do som peeps hav to be kinda evil in dis world ;(
pls let peeps live and like - maybe jus maybe be fair and nice maybe…
