Minds continues to get worse

Minds continues to get worse published on

So now Minds is literally telling us what we can and can’t spend our money on. I tried to boost my latest cartoon, and it was rejected after they labelled it NSFW. What bullshit. Who the hell is going around making sure workers aren’t reading cartoons with the word “fucking” in them? Nobody, that’s who. As i see it, this is just another sign that Minds is becoming part of the corrupt Establishment. First they blackmail people into getting Minds Plus by reducing rewards to those who don’t have it, then they get 10 million from venture capitalists, now they are coming up with excuses to not promote content they don’t like. I recently dropped out of the Minds Plus con, and encourage everyone else to do the same. Otherwise, you are just giving money to the Jack Dorseys of tomorrow.

Edit: My speculation that this is just a roundabout way of censoring has been justified. I got an email telling me i have received a strike, with a link to their Orwellian definition of NSFW…

“NSFW (not safe for work) is defined as content containing nudity, pornography, profanity, violence, gore, or sensitive commentary on race, religion, or gender.”

There it is, folks, Minds admitting it won’t let you make fun of the trannies and other freaks sacred to the SJW mob.

Thinking of joining Mastodon to avoid Twitter tyranny?

EDIT — Looks like the instances are all completely independent of one another so this applies, perhaps, only to Mastodondotsocial.

Don’t bother. They appear to be even bigger fascists than Twitter. I joined their biggest group (or instance as they call it) a couple of days ago and have ALREADY been banned! Not even Twitter bans its political opposition that quickly! No warnings, no one day suspensions followed by seven day suspensions followed by a ban. No, at Mastodon they go straight for the ban. Note also that they use the Orwellian term “suspension” to describe a ban. “We don’t ban anyone, we just permanently suspend them.” That kind of crap. And what horrible, horrible thing did i do that merited this ban? This…


What an evil, evil piggy i must be! The excuse would probably be that i used the word “retarded,” but i suspect that if i had said the same thing about Qanon followers there would have been no ban. And this is an “instance” run by the guy in charge of the whole Mastodon thing, so it’s unlikely that the rest of the place is any better. The fish rots from the head down, as the saying goes.

As for the site itself, it is virtually dead. The “instance” in question is the largest i could find and has only 500,000 members so it’s not exactly thriving compared to even the other small social media sites. On that alone you might think they would be less eager to hand out bans, but i guess they are just too rabid to help themselves. Note also that they are keeping some of my data, supposedly to stop me getting around the ban.  They obviously know that anyone can get another email, so i suspect that what they are storing is my IP address. Yes, that seems quite likely for their kind. Too bad i used a VPN.
