I’m willing to bet genocide apologia was
again, you don’t need to speculate: the modlog is public
the most recent comment you had deleted was for violating rule 1 of !leftymemes@lemmy.dbzer0.com.
before that it was for racism, genocide apologia, etc etc.
i recommend reading your own modlog and reflecting on it.
it’s been well over 6 months since anyone from .ml removed one of your comments; your bigotry lately has instead been getting removed by mods from many other places (including several from your own instance).

i’m an admin so i can see the identities behind mod actions.
(fwiw i just checked and i see that i have personally never moderated you, but i concur with other .ml mods’ previous decisions to do so.)
is there any evidence whatsoever, or is this belief that they simply must have received and suppressed some trump-related smoking gun just blueanon dogma?
they chose to withhold information

afaik WikiLeaks still enjoys a spotless accuracy record and obviously has never promoted QAnon.
The fact that some QAnon promoters have themselves cited some WikiLeaks publications is, in my opinion at least, not a reason to prohibit linking to WikiLeaks (a site which hasn’t published anything new recently but continues to host a massive archive of public interest documents).
21·6 days agoI was surprised to find that dbzer0 has 290 communities.
I guess they have 290 communities which are federated to the instance where you’re collecting these stats; according to dbzer0’s front page they actually have 332 communities. (Also your screenshot shows 1337 communities on lemmy.ml but we actually have 4.74K, and 3919 for .world which actually has 13.1K.)

10·29 days agoWait until you hear about the Alderney pound, Manx pound, Jersey pound, Guernsey pound, Falkland Islands pound, Gibraltar pound, Saint Helena pound, …
which ones are accepted where is... complicated:
from wikipedia:
Throughout the UK, £1 and £2 coins are legal tender for any amount, with the other coins being legal tender only for limited amounts. Bank of England notes are legal tender for any amount in England and Wales, but not in Scotland or Northern Ireland.
[…]
Bank of England, Scottish, Northern Irish, Channel Islands, Isle of Man, Gibraltar, and Falkland banknotes may be offered anywhere in the UK, although there is no obligation to accept them as a means of payment, and acceptance varies. For example, merchants in England generally accept Scottish and Northern Irish notes, but some unfamiliar with them may reject them.[142] However, Scottish and Northern Irish notes both tend to be accepted in Scotland and Northern Ireland, respectively. Merchants in England generally do not accept Jersey, Guernsey, Manx, Gibraltarian, and Falkland notes but Manx notes are generally accepted in Northern Ireland.[143] Bank of England notes are generally accepted in the Falklands and Gibraltar, but for example, Scottish and Northern Irish notes are not.[144] Since all of the notes are denominated in sterling, banks will exchange them for locally issued notes at face value,[145][failed verification] though some in the UK have had trouble exchanging Falkland Islands notes.[146]

2·1 month agothanks, i edited the post to link that instead
12·1 month agoYou asked a question and answered it yourself?
I posted the 10 points according to one source and then said
There are many varied but similar versions of these points circulating elsewhere
11·1 month agoI didn’t say that they should be thrown away?
Sorry that I interpreted your comment as suggesting that anything less than a Pixel is not worth trying to improve the security of.
What’s with the hostility?
No hostility intended. But I still don’t understand why you think that omitting Graphene’s Pixel-requiring hardening features would cause Graphite to be less secure than other Android distributions which also lack those features.
Are there any other options with a feature set comparable to GrapheneOS(-minus-pixel-only-hardening-features) ?
Should the world just throw away the billions of non-Pixel devices in use today?
And/or should everyone just give up on improving security at all for the vast majority of phone users who cannot afford Pixels, since they can’t ever be as secure as a Pixel?
see my other comment in this thread
those benefits rely on the Pixel’s hardware
Doesn’t GrapheneOS have a lot of benefits besides the 3 pixel-requiring hardening features which are removed in Graphite (and the 3 others which are disabled by default but can be re-enabled on some devices)?
I’m not disputing that those hardening features are worthwhile! Pixels with Graphene are obviously much more difficult to exploit than phones without those features.
But there are billions of non-Pixel phones in the world which aren’t about to be thrown away, and the vast majority of phone users absolutely cannot afford a Pixel. GraphiteOS (if it actually works?) seems to me like it is probably a major improvement over the other options available for them.
As someone helpfully explained to you in that thread:
also btw my participation in this sub-thread began by replying to your challenging someone to find examples of you “defending the right” and… yeah, the above-linked thread is obvs one of them
