The news@lemmyworld mods admins have been banning people for criticizing the MBFC bot, so yeah, let’s just keep using bans until this place looks like Reddit again.

Edit: mods, not admins

Say anything negative about that stupid mbfc bot in !news and you’ll get a ban.

If they do, it’s pretty funny since .ml has been the only instance I’ve had comments removed from and they were a small joke and asking a legitimate question.

Ah yes, those incredibly fair and balanced mods in worldnews@lemmy.ml, who remove my small joke comment but let the tankies brigade the comment section with propaganda. Yeah, they’re doing a great job.

My money is that OP is from Russia. That government wants as much division and dessent as they can get, and they have a professional cyber ops organization.

These ships aren’t running a little electric prop that you can just route power to: it’s a massive diesel engine that needs to be capable of outputting thousands of pounds of torque constantly. It’s also a ship, in water, dealing with tides, currents and wind. There is no turning it or altering course without main engine power to move the ship relative to the water to make the rudder effective. Some large ships have steering screws that they can use to slip the ship sideways, but they are meant for minor corrections and maneuvers in calm water and have limited uses.

Helldivers 2 wins. You get to drop orbital strikes, launch ICBM nukes, call in cluster munitions, etc.
