I can forgive the murder of everyone in an apartment building

I see you are all for killing and murder of people as you dog-whistle that you want to see people killed in their homes. That "everyone" in a multi-family building, mass murder and violence are your dehumanization messages on social machines of lemmy.

I can forgive the murder of everyone in an apartment building

People like you and Pete Hegseth find the power of computers and HDTV Fox News electric media platforms in their hand and technology systems to attack and dehumanize and promote anti-intellectualism with snark and shit-talk to dehumanize those that you disagree with, trying to divide people into groups to classify who is sub-human compared to other groups, instead of promoting that all people are equal and that hate is a common problem no matter the race, nation, time period, geography, religion, eye color, skin color, hair color, height, gender, etc.

“Most people can’t stand up for their convictions, because the majority of people might not be doing it. See, everybody’s not doing it, so it must be wrong. And since everybody is doing it, it must be right. So a sort of numerical interpretation of what’s right. But I’m here to say to you this morning that some things are right and some things are wrong. Eternally so, absolutely so. It’s wrong to hate. It always has been wrong and it always will be wrong. It’s wrong in America, it’s wrong in Germany, it’s wrong in Russia, it’s wrong in China. It was wrong in 2000 B.C., and it’s wrong in 1954 A.D. It always has been wrong, and it always will be wrong.” - Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

Ok buddy dogwhistler

It's clear you have a target fixation on me for having autism and not going along with your bullying and dehumanization of those you disagree with. Your "ok buddy" is clearly insincere and dehumanizing of me. I have been as fucking blunt and fucking clear as I can be about hate, and you are dumping hate upon me in your machine lust for Lemmy computer power to dehumanize people you disagree with.

Ok buddy dogwhistler

You have serious media ecology literacy problems of electric media systems. I am not dogwhistling, I'm being as blunt and direct as possible. All you seem to be able to do with serious topics of media ecology is mimic Donald Trump Twitter-think Tweet-length reply with 3-word insults and mocking of truth.

AS BLUNT AND DIRECT AS POSSIBLE:

All Hate is Bad

1954 answer from Dr. Martin Luther King Jr

Repeating again: My message was VERY CLEAR: “Yes it is, and it’s what Clown Populations do on social machines.” - about social machines, Lemmy users. “We don’t need violence, we need people to humanize media systems and stop dehumanizing people they disagree with and start solving the intellectual problems of society.” is what I said, directing the topic to media systems, Lemmy users.

Clown is a known anti-semitic dogwhistle

it's a reference to the common phrase "Put Clowns in the Palace, turn the Palace into a clown show". Citation: On 4th February (2022), Henry Mance used it with impeccable correctness in the Financial Times: ‘An adulterated Turkish proverb is doing the rounds: “When a clown moves into a palace, he doesn’t become a king. The palace becomes a circus.” Well, a circus would be more organised than whatever happened in the British government this week. We have a broken swing and a clown who barely has enough balls to juggle with. Cirque du Soleil, this is not.’

you really need to stop pushing this dumbass phrase

Everyone who disagrees with you you bark "shut up" and call dumb asses I see.

like we don’t know you’re trying to get a Lemmy version of the hate sub ClownWorld going.

All hate is bad. That's the problem with social media clowns, they hide their identity and misinterpret everything because they have zero training in media ecology.

anti-semitic dogwhistle

This is directed at all media platforms, not just Levant Bible, Levant Torah, Levant Quran consumers at Mosque, Church, Synagogue who often promote out-group hate against any "non-believers", "gentiles", "infidels".

I've been very up-front and direct, not "dogwhistle", which you can't seem to understand and comprehend clear and direct communication that isn't based on manipulation. All you seem capable of mocking and insulting what you disagree with intellectually. Which is a very common problem in April 2025 on Lemmy social media environment and Reddit social media environment and Bluesky social media enviornment. People who are anti-humanism in favor of technology love.

My message was VERY CLEAR: "Yes it is, and it’s what Clown Populations do on social machines." - about social machines, Lemmy users.

My stance is the same as Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

Technology alone is the crisis

Terrorism has since proven MLK Jr correct after his death. Technology of drones and new smart ways of killing people from a distance. Without compassion, people will just keep advancing technology of how to wreck other people's lives with power and force.

but I know no amount of love and compassion will get through to these people

How do you know this?

It sounds to me like you have so much faith in Hell that you want to build Hell. A very long-standing problem with teaches and educators.

I also don't mean Hell is a literal place under the Earth, underground. But an attitude of faith and belief in how love is not worth the effort and war is good.

I was born in the South of USA, in Georgia in 1969. We had a song on the F.M. radio about your attitude that compassion goes into the trash every time things get difficult. Molly Hatchet, a Florida hard-rock band. "Fall of the Peacemakers". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gncyDkWWY_w

The gun-stroking pro-violence hate-preachers who run this nation in April 2025 - every day on social machines I witness why these leaders are popular. People have absolute faith in dehumanizing and killing those they disagree with.

When the only language the opposition speaks is violence we have to learn to speak it fluently in order to have a conversation.

I understand people adore hate and violence, it isn't hard at all for me to see people flock to guns, weapons, hate, mass dehumanization leaders, systems of wrecking human lives and wrecking the planet. People speak hate fluently, it's love and compassion nobody bothers to learn the language.

Promoting violence while you hang out on the sides is pretty shitty

Yes it is, and it's what Clown Populations do on social machines.

We don't need violence, we need people to humanize media systems and stop dehumanizing people they disagree with and start solving the intellectual problems of society.

[–] RoundSparrow@lemm.ee 4 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

But coming on here and writing that shit out seeking others to agree with it is dangerous and just plain stupid.

This isn’t “acknowledging reality”. It’s promoting others to violence while you sit on the sidelines

I see you go all over Lemmy and make insult comments to people, not just me.

“acknowledging reality”.

I don't think you acknowledge reality and the Russian War Against Reality.

What's your name? My name is Stephen Alfred Gutknecht. Do you avoid reality and your real name on social machines?

Why?!? Why do the richest have to be the craziest?!?

It's deliberate, all documented over a decade ago:

“In the twenty-first century the techniques of the political technologists have become centralized and systematized, coordinated out of the office of the presidential administration, where Surkov would sit behind a desk on which were phones bearing the names of all the “independent” party leaders, calling and directing them at any moment, day or night. The brilliance of this new type of authoritarianism is that instead of simply oppressing opposition, as had been the case with twentieth-century strains, it climbs inside all ideologies and movements, exploiting and rendering them absurd. One moment Surkov would fund civic forums and human rights NGOs, the next he would quietly support nationalist movements that accuse the NGOs of being tools of the West. With a flourish he sponsored lavish arts festivals for the most provocative modern artists in Moscow, then supported Orthodox Christian fundamentalists, dressed all in black and carrying Jesus crosses, who in turn attacked the modern art exhibitions. The Kremlin’s idea is to own all forms of political discourse, to not let any independent movements develop outside of its walls. Its Moscow can feel like an oligarchy in the morning and a democracy in the afternoon, a monarchy for dinner and a totalitarian state by bedtime.” ― Peter Pomerantsev, Nothing Is True and Everything Is Possible: The Surreal Heart of the New Russia, year 2014

Introduction to the Kremlin media techniques of year 2014

  2. Adam Curtis, BBC, December 31, 2014: On The "Contradictory Vaudeville" Of Post-Modern Politics - "What this film is going to suggest is that that defeatist response has become a central part of a new system of political control. And to understand how this is happening, you have to look to Russia, to a man called Vladislav Surkov, who is a hero of our time. Surkov is one of President Putin's advisers, and has helped him maintain his power for 15 years, but he has done it in a very new way."

Is there anything that can be done to hold Reddit accountable or make people aware of they way they are censoring speech?

Many people on social media platforms don't realize the spam filters can be abused by attackers to prevent certain topics from being mentioned. And on front-page subreddits they do not publish comments, they look published if you are logged in, but if you check from off-axis they are unpublished. I've been posting some of them here and on Bluesky, but nobody cares (on Bluesky, but people have here) !CensoredByReddit@lemm.ee maybe some tech press will cover it.

Lifetime (of the person) bans on Reddit for individual subreddits and accounts are dumb. That sites been around for decades. I can only image how many people got banned there at age 16 and are completely different people at age 22. I never see people bring this kind of criticism up.

Not sure what your point is and I’m not interested.

Repeating: "MAGA is death-wishing people that disagree with Elon Musk and Donald Trump values and leadership."

And you see value in using Lemmy social machine systems to announce that you are not interested. That in itself says a lot about the current state of affairs.
