Apparently, due process is unrelated to an illegal deportation without due process case.

DISCLAIMER: this is not my content that was removed, I just came across it in the modlog and found it to be absurd. If it’s not allowed, I totally understand.

Reason removed was because it’s unrelated.

Unrelated…..

The guy was illegally deported without due process. And yet for some reason, suggesting so is somehow “unrelated” to a meme that is trying to say that because he is affiliated (no charges were ever filed against him for gang-related activity) with a gang, he is by default, guilty.

What’s ironic, is that the entire point of the meme is that the bullshit about him being in MS-13 is unrelated to the fact that people want accountability for this administration illegally deporting a man without due process.

This mod has definitely chosen the correct name.

And even taken into consideration that the instance is essentially a troll haven for wayward 4Chan refugees, they should still have to adhere to the rules of common sense.

This is also blatant misinformation. No judge ever made a finding that he was associated with MS-13. The government asserted it in court but it's never been proven. The immigration proceedings largely revolved around his asylum application, interview, and testimony.

So they're lying in an attempt to make it sensational enough to bust past due process. For an example of how that looks long term, check Duterte's regime in the Philippines. Many people were killed extrajudicially and written off as drug dealers.

lemmy.zip

somewhat new to Lemmy, how can a user block an instance? so far all I’ve been able to figure out is blocking individual communities

7

If you’re on desktop, click on the arrow by your username in the top right. Then click Settings. On the next page, click on Blocks and scroll all the way down to Block Instance to type in an instance name.

If you’re on the Voyager app, go to Settings, then Filters & Blocks and scroll all the way down to Blocked Instances to type in an instance name.

Methods may vary for other browsers/apps.

Blocking an instance (unfortunately) does not stop users from that instance from replying to you or from you seeing their comments. You’d have to block the individual accounts as you see them.

15

Depends on what app you use.

For Voyager you go to settings > filters & blocks > add instance

He was a non-citizen, but had protected status. Specifically, a judge had ruled that he could not be deported to El Salvador, which is where Trump et al. deported him to (e.g., in direct violation of a federal judicial order). The deportation proceedings had no due process at all, which is to say, he was never given a hearing after being arrested, never given a chance to speak to an attorney, etc. All of which is illegal.

Because conservative idiots aren't content talking to each other in their own spaces, they seek to force their ideas onto other people, even those who wish not to listen to them.

The immigration judge literally said there was no proof he was MS-13.

Plaintiff Abrego Garcia is not a member of or has no affiliation with Tren de Aragua, MS-13, or any other criminal or street gang. Although he has been accused of general “gang affiliation,” the U.S. government has never produced an iota of evidence to support this unfounded accusation.

https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.mdd.578815/gov.uscourts.mdd.578815.1.0_1.pdf

The absolute bonked-zonkers thing about this is that they've fully memory-holed that even if this guy was undeniably part of MS-13, the group they were going after and who they had authorized this extra-judicial violence against was tren de aragua. Members of MS-13 should still, under their initial claims, not be able to be deported without trial like this.

Because they understand iterated game theory. (Watch the first video at https://www.cgpgrey.com/politics-in-the-animal-kingdom/ and you might understand it, too.) FPtP means you vote for the a candidate that has a chance to win. Among those candidates you pick your most preferred / least bad option.

(Other videos at that link provide alternatives to FPtP that would better represent that preferences of the populace, and some areas in the U.S. do use non-FPtP for some parts of the election process.)

That's just not true. There's a lot of change that is incremental and comes from within.

That said, if you have enough fighting the system to do that you absolutely can't find time to cast a vote, please do that.

And, I also agree that the system is going to be trying to change you instead, but it's going to be trying to do that whether you "comply" or participate or not. It is possible to vote without being instantly and irrecoverably corrupted.

Human behavior can be modeled. It is often modeled quite well with game theory.

We do have to be cautious tho. Models can let you derive a lot of results, but some or all of those results may not apply to reality depending on how much your model differs from it.

We know the iterated game theory model is largely valid because it is derived in the absence of historical examples and but history shows it in action repeatedly, albeit imperfectly.

So, while I agree on principle, I don't agree that it is the "dunk" / refutation of all game theory that you think it implies.

Hell. Just take the damage trump’s little pet gremlin Elon has done.

Think about it. There would have been no DOGE under Harris.

That alone should have been why socialists should have voted for the democrat.

Another reason is Project 2025. He TOLD them what was going to happen. In detail. So again, there was plenty of reasons to use their vote defensively.

They chose not to.

And let’s throw in the fact that this discussion and the entire comment section wouldn’t have existed under Harris. And that is because the post would have existed. And that is because it wouldn’t have happened. And that is because we would all still have a right to due process.

In the event that they, or you- need and further answers to why they should have ever voted for a democrat- I’d suggest they read the news…

How it works in your country you mean? Where voters have basically no say in the candidates they can vote for, and are attacked and disparaged by both major parties if they have the temerity to vote for a candidate they actually like? Sounds like a healthy "democracy" to me, sure. The whole point of a democracy is voting for folks who represent your views. If neither of the two mainstream parties reflect your views then you are completely disenfranchised under that system. Accepting the premise that only one of two parties can ever win a Presidential election means that you have already given up on democracy. Holding your nose and voting for the least worst candidate only serves to prop up the two party system in perpetuity, and ensures your views will never be represented in the future.

https://fairvote.org/jill-stein-and-spoiler-season/

Despite this poll, the conventional wisdom remains (and most polling suggests) that Green candidates hurt Democrats more than Republicans. The parties seem to be approaching Stein’s campaign accordingly.

In addition to the ad, Democrats have hammered Stein’s candidacy in recent weeks. Conservative operatives tried to help Stein qualify for the ballot in key states to hurt Vice President Harris (just as Democrats tried to help a Constitution Party candidate to hurt former President Trump).

One thing is clear: fear and weaponization of minor-party “spoilers” is alive and well in the last days of the 2024 presidential election – except in Maine and Alaska, which use ranked choice voting to vote for president.

With ranked choice voting, neither side would have to worry about the election being “spoiled,” and voters could confidently cast their ballots for their favorite candidate instead of feeling pressured to pick the lesser of two evils.

But, she wouldn't have trashed our relationship with every trading partner, ruined the NIH and FDA, published military plans in the newspaper. She might have been better on trans rights, but maybe not. So, yeah a more favorable outcome overall, at least IMO.

Now we're angry that they say this man was a gangmember without evidence.

The discussion has moved from "sending people to death camps is fucking insane", to "it's okay to send people to death camps, as long as they're gang members".

This post is a big part of that goalpost moving.

Don't let them shift the narative. Yes, everything that is happening is wrong, but focusing on them lying about him being a gang member, shifts the narative to a point where it's okay to send people to foreign death camps, as long as they've done something the state deems criminal (in this case, being a gang member).

it would, if there is corroborated, documented evidence someone is a captain of a violent gang, rather than someone with no criminal history and a sigmund freud tatoo.

all three are simultaneously correct.

Thanks for this. I have some "conservative" communites blocked, but I didn't know about "conservativeS." Added to the list.

The dems lost because they support fascist bullshit like the war on "MS-13" and the prison industry. And they'll continue to support this despite the resistance of a tiny minority of politicians.

The dems are helpless to oppose policies that they support.

Rent-free in his head, all day, every day. Not sure what he'd do without the Dems to whine about.

Yeah. The post clearly has nothing at all to do with democrats, yet these people go through some insane feats of mental gymnastics to make it about whatever they are upset about that day.

Trumps crime organization removed that man’s right to due process, no one else did.

I think technocrit just likes to be a shitstirrer and bitching about the Dems is easy ragebait material. Doesn't matter what the thread is about, gotta bait the libs somehow. Of course, now that the Dems are basically irrelevant, it rings hollow and just makes him look like one trick pony.

A lot of them do this to goad people into saying shit they can report. I’ve been on the moderator side of these things before. It happens a lot more than you think.

Like when you say "Fuck Nazis" and suddenly a bunch of comments going "The conservatives did nothing wrong!" Like what?

Yeah, dude seems to want to be on the wrong side of every argument.

As a left-leaning person, I didn't get that memo to support fascist bullshit like the war on "MS-13" and the prison industry.

Was that supposed to come with my George Soros check?

bUt the dEmOcRaTs gUyS!!

This has NOTHING at all to do with the democrats and everything to do with some stupid agenda you have to rub the stink of “bOtH SiDeS” bullshit all over everything you can find.

The post is about a shit-tier tool of a mod. Not the democrats. The subject of the shit-tier mod’s action is a post that has everything to do with the current administration’s decision to forcefully kidnap a man with no evidence to support their accusation, and illegally deport him without due process.

How about you stop with this bullshit and read the fucking room for a change.

Based on the spectacular feat of mental gymnastics you performed in order to find a way to make all of this the democrats fault- I’m going to assume you’re not here in good faith and respond in kind:

The mental gymnastics are astounding that you have come to the conclusion that somehow, I can become self-inflicted by something you helped MAGA achieve.

Brilliant work there.

I wonder what the approval rating for non-voting mouth-breathing blowhards is? It’s got to be in the lower 2’s.

I guess it’s good for you that no one can check, isn’t it?

Considering that this discussion is not even close to the point of the meme and since you seem to just want to see if you can out-snark me, I’m going to just end this here.

Get that last word in and be sure to make it a good’n!

Telling people to "fuck off" is incredibly rude. YDI.

Trump is merely continuing the Biden tradition of seeing 40 beheaded babies and finding Hamas bases under hospitals. But if Trump does it suddenly you believe in the rule of law. It has already been demolished.

Oh hey look it's the average .world mod attitude! Rudeness < Nazi behaviour, so maybe check your priorities on criticism yeah?

I see the "don't sass the nazis" attitude so prevalent among reddit mods made it to lemmy. Bummer.

Yep. I am not even telling the genocide defenders to "Fuck off" nor personally insult them.

Ohmygod I saw the link and all the best parts of my brain lit up.

I will never be able to not read every single comment in a YPTB thread. I just won't.

You're on the internet being an annoying shit stain, course folks are gonna be assholes. Being nice ain't a virtue it's a courtesy one I ain't given ya.

More insult slinging from the civilized liberals who were so eager about good language when defending genocide. What a surprise.

-6

Dude ya just called an Inland Imperial Redneck a civilized liberal, I ain't either I'm a minarchist socialist. As for defending genocide I'm gonna assume ya are referring to the genocide in Gaza, which all I have to say on that one is that id turn Tel Aviv into a parking lot. An eye for an eye flesh for flesh kill em all and let the gods sort out the rest.

Perhaps ya should stop while you are ahead because all you are doing is making an ass of thineself.

You’re free to block it and walk away.

Just…. Walk away.

Classic Democrat take. Propaganda didn't win Trump the election. The painful incompetence of Biden and Kamala handed him the election. And the painful incompetence of Trump will (hopefully, as in hopefully there's another election) lead to the election of whoever the next completely unlikable and unpopular Democratic candidate is. Have you folks ever thought of running a candidate who would actually tackle income inequality and fairly tax the rich? Nah, didn't think so.

Considering that this discussion has nothing to do with the PTB in question, I’m going to end this here before my comments get removed. I’d rather keep the discussion within the wheelhouse of the post.

Anyone who calls you out on getting banned for insulting people is a Russian troll

Use some basic manners before making a post on how bad mods are.

“YDI for telling a bootlicking fascist apologist to fuck off.”
