Welcome to the Melbourne Community Daily Discussion Thread.
I know some people get angry when they hear Donald Trump talk but I can’t help but laugh. He’s a hoot. 😂
I hate him so much.
It will take generations for his bad influence on society and criminality to be repaired
The colesworth organic butter block is delicious and cheaper than western star.
thank fuuuuck I keep a spare PSU about. 'nuff said.
Can I ask for a little mod help from the lovely people here?
I have a report for the “Gigi Hadid TARGETED By ISRAELI STATE Online” video sitting in the worldnews community. I’m at work and not in a position to review/moderate it. It has been downvoted, but anything about Israel/Palestine is currently likely to get brigaded by either side. You can’t actually trust the votes alone.
Both the poster and the report are non aussie.zone users. The poster looks like a human (not a bot account). The video looks like it might be a legit news source, but I can’t download it here.
We don’t remove stuff for being controvertial if it’s legitimate. We remove for being lies/misinformation - or if it’s showing dead bodies or something on that sort of scale.
It is almost moot - sitting at -5 votes, nobody who doesn’t visit the worldnews community directly is even going to see it. But, should it be removed?
Side note: This is exactly the sort of reason I name communities something insular to Australia. Someone is posting to all the “news” communities, including ours. It’s why our music community is not called “music”. An outside will never find it and spam it all up promoting their soundcloud.
It’s a YouTube mirror of a legitimate four-day-old video from The Hill, which is a centre to left-leaning news source.
The video contents itself contains mild criticisms towards Israel and this is why it’s getting reported. I don’t think it promotes lies or misinformation.
I have not heard of this YouTube mirror tech they are using, Invidious, not sure if it’s above board, but that would be me only concern if it is not.
I’m not sure why this was reported. It’s a seemingly legitimate news source with a video involving two presenters discussing US first amendment rights in relation to the current conflict in Gaza. No depictions of dead bodies or the like. It’s a bit of a flashy post title but that’s about it really. I wouldn’t delete it (although that would be ironic given the subject matter)
Sydneys metro FUCKING ROCKS
