  • In his letter sent from jail, King went on to criticize white moderates. He said that a white moderate is someone “who constantly says: ‘I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action’; who paternalistically believes he can set the timetable for another man’s freedom.” Such a person is, according to King, someone “who lives by a mythical concept of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait for a ‘more convenient season.’”

    Absolutely perfect, even 60 years later.












  • Yeah, sometimes I feel there are people who are kind of coming together here when they find something they disagree with. There’s nothing we can do about that. edit: Likewise, people who agree with what I said are also free to reply to the person I disagreed with as well. It works both ways.

    You can always find a link to the modlog at the bottom of every page in the desktop web version of any Lemmy instance. You can search for any user on a federated instance. No need typing “@” symbol.


  • You went to a niche forum and told them what they believe in is stupid?

    Our deleted comments are stored on modlog. You honestly don’t have many deleted comments. We all get angry, it happens. Some discussions are just better to leave alone than deal with.

    Many of your deleted comments are over the top arguments. Yes I get that “over the top is subjective” but we have discussions about genocide that are calmer than your discussions about terrible mechanics who are so terrible… that you imagine them going to vote for abortion bans and transgender mistreatment. Another comment you made fun of the person’s body (you also assumed their gender I guess) for not agreeing with you on how loud cars on.

    We all get laughed at here. Happens to all of us. I got called the “embodiment” of a particular meme. Someone is going always going to disagree with me about something, they can just block me if it becomes an issue.

    Lemmy is not perfect but it’s so much better than the alternatives. The reason why Lemmy is awesome is because its developers (self identifying tankies) would NEVER have a platform to discuss what they want. They had to build one that was impervious to pushing them into a corner on their own server/instance.

    (I’m not referring to you here.) Oh the irony going out of your way to find tankie content (none of it shows up on Lemmy.world) and antagonizing them on the software they created in a way where their view isn’t rammed down your throat in the first place.
