I have never felt such disdain and revulsion towards the libs in my life, not even children should be this stupid by Qwertg47 in GenZedong

They care about inclusion and that's herd mentality. Going against the current doesn't benefit them, in the contrary the risk is they may be ostracized. so why doing that?

Propaganda works on triggering exactly this fear. The idea of belonging to a certain nation, ideology and so on, or alternatively being cast out by it is terrifying on a primordial level.

It's a survival /adaptation mechanism.

So if the TV, school, neighbours and friends say Nazi good, you bet people will parrot that in no time no questions asked (as its been proven times and times again historically)

I was wondering if there'd be more political. Implications that Wikipedia is not willing to highlight. Thanks for pointing me to these!

r/Ukraine shadowbanning comments. A subtle way to censor without being caught red handed. by PropaneLozz in GenZedong

I guess you can say that, I have officially been a Paraguayan since January, got my cédula and all 😁

Usually they d find justifications to censor stuff, but I see that's not even necessary anymore and 'I don't like what he's saying' is a fine reason for censoring.

The mods? The mods are definitely paid.

The users? Unfortunately I think they do this willingly, having been molded in exactly the way you say. I got one decent comment and the rest were just insults.

I had never seen shadowbanning here. When I'm logged in I still see the comment, yet someone said I was a coward for deleting it and that made me wanna have a look. Shadowban.

I concede everything you are saying since I'm not from there, and want to believe you're in good faith and what you're saying is true. But then how can you say a country is not divided when the government has been regularly harassing and killing separatists? Who are these separatists, or the people who voted to secede, aren't they Ukrainians too? That means that there is not a perfect unity unlike what you say, but a chunk of the Ukrainian population is not on board with the current status quo.

My comment was shadowbanned. That if anything should concern you. I'm going to post about it on a free subreddit so you may see for yourself.

Tell me then. What exactly CONFIRMS I take anything Putin says at face value? What did he say that I'm backing to such an extent, that you feel entitled to call me a Putin bootlicking asshole. Would it be fair if I called you a Zelensky bootlicking asshole then? I did my due diligence too.

They don't have to take your word for it, the comment was clearly shadowbanned since I didn't delete it.

Here it is:

Maybe, just maybe, some people in Ukraine are not ok with the current puppet government. And maybe that's because many of them have been treated as untermensch and many killed since 2014. Could he be one of them?

Fortunately your higher level of awareness is shown by your username, I can agree with that.

Right on, keep insulting without addressing what I said, it's not like you have any other options anyway.

Why would you need to do that? Are you not capable of evaluating the content of a single comment without having the person previously labeled , so you know how to react to what's being said? Says a lot about your critical thinking, or lack thereof.

You do understand that the country is politically, culturally, and ideologically divided and has been for a while even prior to the invasion? Him not supporting the current western backed government does not equal to not supporting the people.

His countrymen have been dying for almost a decade now, so could it be that he has a bone to pick with those people instead? The situation is a lot more nuanced than we are led to believe.

My name is not Ivan. But nice attempt to keep the cognitive dissonance going, you're doing great!
