The right way to think about Legalization

Below it, it says as a youtube warning "AP has called the election for Joe Biden."

AP doesn't decide the election...

magnora7 · 2020-12-03T07:05:51+00:00

bot posting garbage to drag down the quality of this website. I banned like 5 accounts for that today, lots of bots and shills today for some reason. Like 2 weeks worth in 1 day

magnora7 · 2020-12-03T06:47:31+00:00

Maybe. Each one will attract different types of people, looking for different types of content and conversation. It's worth trying.

magnora7 · 2020-12-03T06:39:07+00:00

hey! Welcome

magnora7 · 2020-12-03T03:07:33+00:00

Yeah exactly. That's why I think a lot of different flavors of websites would work out. Everyone wants a little something different, so why not have a bunch of different communities that can all develop their own unique culture? And then also I can try out different hosting services simultaneously and if we ever have a problem with one we can flip them all over to the other server company where we're already set up. I think it will work. I think the "no politics" one has the best chance of hooking a lot of people in at launch.

magnora7 · 2020-12-03T02:59:14+00:00

Thanks for the ideas. It's actually "reddit, but x". That's what saidit is, and it's done pretty well, and we get most of our users from reddit users who want to leave. So I think it's good to have 5 different "reddit, but x" type of designs. They don't all have to be super popular, it's okay if some are small and have niche communities. But as long as each site has an obvious focus, I think it would work

magnora7 · 2020-12-03T02:56:20+00:00

You're being banned because you're going around calling people ad hominems constantly (including many others as well in previous threads where you were saying 'fuck off little bitch boy' to people) without any accompanying actual information, which is against the rules. You can have any belief you want, but can't act like this towards others on a regular basis, which you unfortunately do. Goodbye. https://saidit.net/s/SaidIt/comments/j1/the_saiditnet_terms_and_content_policy/

magnora7 · 2020-12-03T01:26:47+00:00

Like saidit but no politics, or very focused on the pyramid of debate, or one that is designed for political centrists... there's a lot of possibilities.

magnora7 · 2020-12-03T01:25:46+00:00

I'm the head admin and this site has rules: https://saidit.net/static/PyramidDebate.jpg

Please don't drag discussion down the pyramid of debate on a regular basis or you will be banned.

magnora7 · 2020-12-03T01:24:35+00:00

They are the same person, good eye! I checked the IPs and kesh's are the same as bea's. I just banned them for blogspam. Thanks for the detective work

magnora7 · 2020-12-03T00:22:44+00:00

I wish "Politician" wasn't even a job that existed, and eventually just becomes an obsolete job like telephone operators

magnora7 · 2020-12-03T00:19:57+00:00

Well, if the second website was set up properly, it wouldn't be much additional work. It would be mostly screening username applications, rather than removing and banning. And I could do that at my leisure, rather than having to watch it 24/7 like I do with saidit. So I think it would work out ok

magnora7 · 2020-12-03T00:14:53+00:00

Yes I wonder if a lot of people would suddenly become Amish too

magnora7 · 2020-12-03T00:13:42+00:00

Well, the latter is just a legal fact:

The VICP uses a no-fault system for resolving vaccine injury claims

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Vaccine_Injury_Compensation_Program

and there's evidence of the former from even CDC advisory boards:

"These are immune responses, so if you feel something after vaccination, you should expect to feel that. And when you do, it's normal that you have some arm soreness or some fatigue or some body aches or even some fever," said Patricia Stinchfield of the National Association of Pediatric Nurse Practitioners during the meeting.

https://thehill.com/policy/healthcare/527372-cdc-advisory-panel-says-people-must-be-warned-about-vaccine-side-effects

Also the fact this thing is being rushed through the normal safe-checking procedures and long-term testing schedules that most vaccines are tested under. And on top of that, it's a new type of mRNA vaccine which has never been used publicly before.

So there's plenty of legitimate things to be concerned about here, unfortunately.

magnora7 · 2020-12-03T00:06:00+00:00

Tbh that sounds like a great way to piss off everyone. I think I'd rather just make another new site

magnora7 · 2020-12-03T00:05:01+00:00

What is "CW"?

Why do your headlines never contain any information, when you could just put the text body in the headline?

Why did you just copy/paste the headline (and vote count) from /r/GreatAwakening instead of just linking to the actual article?

This is really coming across as spam... especially since you never comment, only post. It seems like a bot, that is doing a bad job. Maybe I should ban it

magnora7 · 2020-12-03T00:02:41+00:00

One comment was removed because it was a spam bot

magnora7 · 2020-12-03T00:02:11+00:00

Please don't drag the quality of discussion downward with comments containing ad hominems only. It's not allowed on saidit

magnora7 · 2020-12-02T23:52:17+00:00

That's nice, even better!

magnora7 · 2020-12-02T23:49:51+00:00

Nice list.

Hennaojichian is a real person though, they leave comments all the time if you look at their profile. They seem like a real human.

bea is already banned days ago.

The last 4 or so really only post like once a week, which is totally fine by me.

However u/joyfreak and /u/TrulyTimes post an awful lot and it's all just to drive traffic to their websites. However some of the video game content from joyfreak is nice on occasion and some of the content from trulytimes seems worthy of discussion on occasion. But I'm considering a ban on them because of their spam-like behavior in both frequency and the fact they only ever link to their site.

magnora7 · 2020-12-02T23:31:14+00:00

I think 444 acres on the Kansas-Nebraska border would cost around $400k or so. Seems cool and relatively accessible price-wise

magnora7 · 2020-12-02T23:25:45+00:00

Jesus christ they made a mess, and quite clearly were doing it intentionally too. Thanks for letting me know, I cleaned it up.

magnora7 · 2020-12-02T23:19:31+00:00

Yes you did. Here are some quotes from you:

If I got my hands on an actual pedo I would probably shoot the fucker in the head and then wrap the body in duct tape and then throw the body in a lake

At this point, I would probably team up with Stalin if I got the chance, just to purge putrid conspiratard fags like you, /Jesus

So you advocate violence, and now you're a liar now too huh? Wish I could say I'm surprised. Your account has been banned again for ban evasion.

magnora7 · 2020-12-02T07:13:59+00:00

lol the baby yoda, too accurate

magnora7 · 2020-12-02T07:12:18+00:00

Easy to manufacture numbers like that when you have Cambridge Analytica set up camp on your website

magnora7 · 2020-12-02T07:10:34+00:00

The best way is https://saidit.net/subs/ and look at the top sub's subscribers. That gives a good approximation. There are more usernames than this though, about 30% more. But there's no way to check the full number unless you're admin

magnora7 · 2020-12-02T07:09:36+00:00

Yeah I think it should be harder to create usernames. And it would have to be on a new site likely, as some have registered thousands of reserve names so even if we changed registration now it wouldn't fix the issue. It's frustrating

magnora7 · 2020-12-02T07:08:42+00:00

Thank you. :)

magnora7 · 2020-12-01T23:38:57+00:00

Thanks

magnora7 · 2020-12-01T23:38:46+00:00

No advocating violence. No smearing ad hominems every comment. You've been banned

magnora7 · 2020-12-01T23:37:33+00:00

Yeah no joke, that's why everyone burns out from this job after a year. There's no alternative though. I bear the burden so that others might have free speech, and that's a burden I've accepted, even if no one else wants to help me.

magnora7 · 2020-12-01T23:36:51+00:00

We have about 18k unique visitors a day. Not sure about active user count though.

magnora7 · 2020-12-01T23:34:49+00:00

Thanks!

magnora7 · 2020-12-01T07:45:39+00:00

You were banned for repeatedly advocating violence

magnora7 · 2020-12-01T05:31:13+00:00

Yes that would be helpful to have. If you want to give it a shot you're more than welcome to

magnora7 · 2020-12-01T05:29:53+00:00

Yeah welcome to my world every day for the last 3 years

magnora7 · 2020-11-30T21:21:50+00:00

Here's the paper about it: https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-020-03348-4

magnora7 · 2020-11-30T20:15:33+00:00

Thanks for including a link to something this time so people can read more

magnora7 · 2020-11-30T20:13:04+00:00

just some LARPing troll, trying to create a mess by roleplaying as a nonsensical character. I banned them a few minutes ago

magnora7 · 2020-11-30T19:58:45+00:00

Thanks for another option, even duckduckgo is not cutting it sometimes these days

magnora7 · 2020-11-30T19:57:50+00:00

Why does taco bell ask you to donate a dollar to end hunger?

Why do toll booths continue to exist on roads that are already paid off many times over?

Because people are greedy

“Wikipedia is absolutely unique in that it’s a nonprofit operating in the space of multibillion-dollar brands,” Lih said. “On top of that, it has to answer to this cacophony of voices — to divine what the community wants, and then respond to that.”

magnora7 · 2020-11-30T19:53:12+00:00

They dropped the "ripple" name btw, it's just xrp now.

Xrp does have the lowest fees of any coin, and it has proven those low fees scale to large volumes. So while I'm not happy it's the banker's coin, it does actually have some of the best transaction low-cost functionality of any of the popular coins. https://bitinfocharts.com/comparison/transactionfees-btc-eth-bch-ltc-xrp.html#log

magnora7 · 2020-11-30T19:18:01+00:00

Just like Anon, Q, Occupy Wall Street, and many other popular movements that were hijacked/disabled as they grew

magnora7 · 2020-11-30T06:21:06+00:00

Network should be required viewing for all saiditers, I highly recommend it

magnora7 · 2020-11-30T05:29:23+00:00

My only question.... is this real or a false flag?

I am interested to see what the reaction is to this by the French government and populace

magnora7 · 2020-11-30T05:14:41+00:00

Perhaps, but there are thousands of competing cryptocurrencies right as we speak. Most are not owned by the powers that be

magnora7 · 2020-11-29T23:58:21+00:00

Bitcoin transactions cost about $4.

XRP transactions cost about $0.0001 each.

There are better options, the only question is why more people aren't using them? Especially online retailers, cryptocurrency payment purchasing options need to become mainstream and fast

magnora7 · 2020-11-29T23:55:45+00:00

Not surprised. Every youtube channel advertises it, so I assumed it's a honeypot if they have such infinite money for advertising

magnora7 · 2020-11-29T23:52:47+00:00

People literally try to play both "sides" and create fights that are literally them fighting with themselves, all so normal users see it and never want to come back. Talk about needing to find a real hobby

magnora7 · 2020-11-29T23:51:31+00:00

Thanks

magnora7 · 2020-11-29T23:49:50+00:00

Probably a bot

magnora7 · 2020-11-29T23:49:45+00:00

Yeah saidit's code is here: https://github.com/libertysoft3/saidit

magnora7 · 2020-11-29T02:57:22+00:00

So you're just reposting random political spam now?

magnora7 · 2020-11-29T02:55:07+00:00

I know people who work for global billion-dollar corporations, who then think humans are not capable of the organization necessary to do some of the scams we see in the world...

But like they say, it's very hard to get a man to realize the truth when his salary depends upon it

magnora7 · 2020-11-29T02:51:28+00:00

They've both been banned. They're both owned by the same person and were both breaking site rules.

magnora7 · 2020-11-29T02:47:38+00:00

Yup it's the "Americans" comments spam bot, thanks. It comes back every few weeks, for years now. I'll ban it again now

magnora7 · 2020-11-28T23:48:37+00:00

Well I did talk to them and give them another chance, but it seems very unlikely they'll obey the rules now. I had to remove all the fraudulent accounts and moderator positions though, or else I'm just encouraging this sort of behavior

magnora7 · 2020-11-28T23:47:37+00:00

Well the tests are notoriously unreliable, and this is known

magnora7 · 2020-11-28T23:47:16+00:00

I mean people could promote them by word of mouth too. It doesn't require any programming, just time

magnora7 · 2020-11-28T00:59:25+00:00

Thanks! It can be tough, but it's worth it

magnora7 · 2020-11-28T00:09:26+00:00

Not bad ideas, but any programming is unlikely to happen without a new programmer.

The saidit subs update list sounds interesting, maybe someone else could do that, since d3rr and I have more than enough on our plates already? Someone could make a sub for it

For now, browsing https://saidit.net/subs/new/ should do the job

magnora7 · 2020-11-28T00:06:32+00:00

Thankfully a good portion of them do give up after the first banning, I bet this one will too. At least now I know what to notice for this one, so it will be easy to spot if it comes back.

magnora7 · 2020-11-27T23:54:54+00:00

You are right, I just banned the account from saidit for blogspam

magnora7 · 2020-11-27T23:33:09+00:00

Hey, I noticed you created 5 alternate usernames, and then aged them, with the purpose of breaking the site rules that require a wait between registering subs.

I am banning all your additional usernames and removing your wrongfully-obtained moderator positions.

I will not ban you, but this is your final warning. If you break any site rules again you will be permanently banned from saidit.

https://saidit.net/s/SaidIt/comments/j1/the_saiditnet_terms_and_content_policy/

magnora7 · 2020-11-27T23:30:17+00:00

So they're creating subs by using alternate names to bypass the time restriction. Just say that, lol

I'll look in to it

edit: I just banned their alt usernames and undid all the fraudulent mod positions they acquired

magnora7 · 2020-11-27T02:21:06+00:00

Much appreciated. Cheers

magnora7 · 2020-11-27T00:27:09+00:00

Give it a few days and if it's still doing that send me a PM and let me know and we'll look in to it

magnora7 · 2020-11-27T00:26:08+00:00

Thanks. You can PM me them too if you don't want to make a whole post about it. I appreciate the help Drewski! Happy thanksgiving

magnora7 · 2020-11-26T22:10:23+00:00

Thanks

magnora7 · 2020-11-26T21:39:32+00:00

Oh dang it's Jeffery Tambor, from Arrested Development. He was bald even 40 years ago haha

Not totally related to the OP, but did you know that the US used to have an "Anti-Freemasonry Party" as a legitimate Political Party? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-Masonic_Party

magnora7 · 2020-11-26T21:33:07+00:00

Right to repair!

France also has a law where consumer products must display the expected number of years that product will last, to combat planned obsolescence.

Both these things are fantastic ideas that I wish more countries would adopt. This helps protect the consumer and ensure an honest marketplace where people aren't being tricked by misleading products, as well as reducing waste.

magnora7 · 2020-11-26T21:30:53+00:00

I see this in reddit threads too. Instead of the bots having AI or generating conversation or comments, they simply copy-paste the entire already-existing comment tree from another thread on the same topic. Boom, instant "organic" conversation. And if those pre-made conversations align with their propaganda motives, then that makes it even easier for them. They just have to generate a controversial and alienating discussion once, and then just copy-paste it to every other thread about that same topic. Boom, forum population alienated with little work, hit job accomplished.

Sucks people feel the need to destroy and corrupt like this. The internet used to be such a nice place before all these content destroyers came along. Same as how 90% of my phone calls are from robots. People are openly and repeatedly abusing for profit what should instead be a public service.

Thank you for listening to my rant.

magnora7 · 2020-11-26T05:50:40+00:00

Basically land value went up on the winner's side, I guess it makes sense. California is especially interesting though, not sure what's going on there

magnora7 · 2020-11-25T20:33:21+00:00

FBI certainly went out of their way to take him down, that's for sure

magnora7 · 2020-11-25T11:03:49+00:00

There was lots of discussion about covid in the thread. It was on the front page of r/all. It was on-topic, and I was not being rude.

magnora7 · 2020-11-25T09:58:02+00:00

Maybe you could put the information in the headline? Like maybe the title could be instead of something vague like "Breaking" it could be " Nov 25th, 2020 Trump team wins hearings in Arizona, Michigan and Pennsylvania legislatures on election concerns " and then you could link to the thing you're referencing in the text below. Just a suggestion to improve quality, thanks

magnora7 · 2020-11-25T02:43:52+00:00

That's all well and good, as long as they're actual people pushing viewpoints they actually believe. But when it's one person pretending to be 50 people, with the intent of poisoning the quality of discussion on the whole website and driving away new users (which does happen), we cannot allow that anymore than we should allow people to falsely yell "FIRE!" in a crowded theater. And it can be difficult to distinguish which is happening.

So it requires careful attention, and we have the saidit rules like they are because it helps prevent against this sort of cultural website hijacking that voat and many other sites experienced. Allowing one person's speech to drown out everyone else's, isn't really free speech for those being drowned out. So there's a balance that has to be had because of this cultural forum hijacking phenomenon that every social media site now has to deal with.

magnora7 · 2020-11-25T01:48:00+00:00

Quarantine is useful to reduce transmission, it's a technique that is proven to work. If it was airborne and was also killing 5% of people, everyone would rightfully be freaking the heck out.

Even during the black death, which killed 35% of people or so (100x worse IFR than covid), some towns survived by quarantining themselves from the rest of Europe.

https://www.history.com/news/plague-italy-public-health-ferrara

Ferrara managed to prevent even a single death from the plague after the year 1576—even as neighboring communities were devastated. How did they do it? Critical in the city's success, records suggest, were border controls, sanitary laws and personal hygiene.

magnora7 · 2020-11-25T01:42:38+00:00

The fact it's posed from my account, and I run the website

magnora7 · 2020-11-25T01:41:58+00:00

Yeah and they also created websites for subs that were banned, which I think was a smart move as well. So they created the .win network that way. I think it might be smart for saidit to do something similar, to have different saidit-like websites with different focuses and different rules. That is definitely one thing they did right.

But on thedonald.win, there aren't even subs, and no one can create a sub. It's just the one big sub. So that's one of the big limitations. And it also makes it easier for the paid shills to control.

magnora7 · 2020-11-25T01:39:01+00:00

Yes I wonder about that relationship exactly. Same with the Dubai interest. I haven't seen anything bad about Dubai on reddit in a while now that I think about it...

magnora7 · 2020-11-25T01:19:26+00:00

It didn't? I know reddit had votes before it even had subreddits, which would've been 2007-2008 or so, when I started reading it.

magnora7 · 2020-11-25T01:13:58+00:00

Oh I see, I thought you were referring to a corporation called Newhouse, my fault.

So yeah the Newhouse family owns at least 70% of reddit according to that chart.

I wonder if the Newhouse family is friendly with the CCP. I imagine they'd have to be

magnora7 · 2020-11-25T01:03:41+00:00

Lol stuff like this is why I never buy a first-gen console. Especially after the xbox ring of death debacle, which I thankfully avoided.

I will probably buy a PS5 around April 2021 or so. When the price is about 70% of what is is now and there's actually a library of games out. And my friends will have a PS5 already and pressure me in to getting one lol.

magnora7 · 2020-11-25T01:01:47+00:00

Very nice. I like the lower right one with the zig-zag square pattern

magnora7 · 2020-11-25T00:57:50+00:00

I mean if we had a real plague where like 5% of people were dying, then I would support the lockdowns.

But this flu where 99.4% survive? 3x as bad as a bad flu season? This is not worth locking the world down for.

Especially since it mutates regularly and there will be no vaccine that solves it, just like there is no vaccine that solves the flu, only last year's strain.

magnora7 · 2020-11-25T00:53:53+00:00

You're banned for repeatedly dragging the quality of discussion downward. Don't constantly insult other users, it's against site rules.

magnora7 · 2020-11-25T00:53:09+00:00

I have a canary at /s/saiditcanary

We back up a lot. We have no reason we'd ever hand over user data, and we don't keep any extra data we don't need to operate the site.

If we got censored, we'd change server companies. We've already done it 3 times in the last 3 years.

We're prepared, don't worry.

magnora7 · 2020-11-25T00:51:05+00:00

I agree, the statement was that 6% of covid deaths were covid-only with no other conditions present. That doesn't mean the other 94% had nothing to do with covid.

Although it does show how important a preexisting condition is to cause death over covid. Which is similar to the flu, just with worse numbers.

The real tell is the number of total deaths per year, imo. There is an excess compared to other years, but it's like a 5-10% excess, not a 2x or 10x excess like some people are acting like it is. I think we should basically treat it as a very bad flu year. Not as the plague, that's too much of an overreaction.

magnora7 · 2020-11-25T00:38:43+00:00

I just simply apply our rules: https://saidit.net/s/SaidIt/comments/j1/the_saiditnet_terms_and_content_policy/

I don't judge the truth content of things, I merely judge the quality of discussion and moderate based on that, as per the site rules.

magnora7 · 2020-11-25T00:37:36+00:00

They're run by Cambridge Analytica, aka actual paid Trump shills. There's some good info there occasionally, but it's extremely biased, and they will ban you if you say anything against Trump. 90% of the traffic and votes there are faked with bots and shills, unlike here on saidit where we fake no traffic

magnora7 · 2020-11-25T00:35:28+00:00

That guy himself was just banned for breaking the rules repeatedly, he was probably here to participate in destroying the quality of the forum, given his frequently violent posts that often attacked and harassed other users, and in just one day too

magnora7 · 2020-11-25T00:33:13+00:00

You can just post in /s/coronavirus maybe

Unlike reddit, we allow both sides of the discussion on a given topic, so you can actually just use the main subs for that topic

magnora7 · 2020-11-25T00:32:31+00:00

Yeah I'm not even anti-mask or anything, I just want to have the discussion about what is actually happening. You know, the actual science.

But instead I'm censored, called an insensitive hateful person, and banned from the platform.

So broken. Reddit is literally anti-science, and it's disturbing

magnora7 · 2020-11-25T00:31:07+00:00

Welcome! We strongly value people who drag the quality of discussion upward on the pyramid of debate! https://saidit.net/static/PyramidDebate.jpg
