My case chiefly rests on his years of white supremacist rhetoric — which you didn’t address. I mentioned those other two bits at the end of my comment. On their own, I agree, they are slightly concerning but not damning; but in the context of his show’s content and rhetoric, they are.
For years he’s been saying things things that white supremacists love to hear: White people are being replaced; legal and illegal immigrants are ruining the US; George Soros hates the west and wants society to collapse (anti-semites love that one); immigrants are dirty, uncivilized; a race war is imminent; anything done to acknowledge racism is racist; BLM protests were violent riots; mass-shooters with racist manifestos aren’t white supremacists; etc.
There are several instances of him associating with and boosting white supremacists online, and even his show’s long-time top writer was pressured to quit after explicitly racist online posts came to light.
This page does a fairly good job of cataloging the sorts of rhetoric he’s used that’re amicable to white supremacists.
Southern US — get black tea, iced. Sometimes asked for sweeter preference.
Hot tea is never on the menu, except for tea houses.
You’re so consistent on the She-ra memes lately, OP, I hecking love it :P
Just as dangerous to connect a random number generator to nukes. ¯_(ツ)_/¯
The federation with Mastodon is mostly one-way: We can’t see or comment on Mastodon posts, but Mastodon users can see and comment on Lemmy posts.
Mastodon’s like Twitter… its posts wouldn’t fit in the Lemmy UI well. Though I hear kbin works well with both Mastodon-style and Lemmy-style posts.
I can hear the Luma eating, what a nice little jingle.
Obviously the duck-sized horse. That bitch is tiny! What’re they gonna do, poke my ankle to death?
I use Matrix & XMPP almost exclusively, with some IRC on the side.
I also use Cheogram/JMP’s SMS–>XMPP service, it’s quite handy to check SMS on my computer.
Can’t be bothered to SMS? Jesus. @-@
Thanks!

… Yup, I’m gonna die.
Would you mind sharing the link/author of the extension? I tried searching on Firefox’es site, but only found spammy-looking unrelated add-ons.
I’ve been wondering about this, too! It might be nice for hash-tags to somehow be invisible to Lemmy (so as to not be intrusive or annoying), but visible during federation to non-Lemmy/Kbin servers? Without hash-tags, discoverability of Lemmy posts on Mastodon & friends is pretty much DOA, unless they’re actively sought out.
Calling someone a “redditor” gave off weird vibes anyway. I’d prefer just saying something like “Lemmy user.” :P
Missed the chance for the title “There will never be a second Second Life,” real shame.
From what I understand, opening a port isn’t a risk in and of itself — it’s only a risk if the software using the port is insecure! So long as you use reliable software and take care to configure things properly (following through with instructions from a site like ArchWiki or the official documentation helps), you’re good.
CloudFlare is more for DDOS protection, which you almost certainly don’t need . You could always set up DDOS protection later on, if the need ever arises.
there are far fewer users than on Reddit—so it’s kind of quiet over there right now
I don’t even… on my server’s “new” feed, I’m getting posts every minute. Literally. I have no idea how that’s “quiet” lol
Racism is the -ism of race — the idea that race is one of the (or the) most important traits of a person.
That through race, you can assume things about them like their worth, how you should treat them, how they act, feel, etc.
The way I see, all of these -isms are all like that (sexism, nationalism, etc).
So no, it’s not racist to call yourself white. It would be racist, though, to say you’re worth more or less than others because of your being white.
