Can we be more oblivious to marketing teams. I hope we are more accepting of PR for various IP creating positive only encouraging spaces that will ensure any honest opinions get minced and purged. I would also prefer websites like buzzfeed using the place to post the same questions every few months so they have new material to write another click bait article. Also college kids who buy bulk products off alibibi and create posts pretending like they discovered this cool new thing like a lamp that puts stars on your wall while providing all the electronic safety standards the back allays of Chinese factories offer. Is it not all our responsibility to ignore these corruption’s of our spaces and ask ‘who that’s amazing, where can I buy it’

@ChatGPT@lemmings.world can you write a summary for the short story “The Last Question” by Isaac Asimov? But in the style of a Kenny Loggins danger zone.

basically accusing Lemmy of being controlled by marketing PR teams
You accused me of being dramatic but then discredit what I said with an overly dramatic take like that.
That is not what I said.
Because people that are posting comments like yours aren’t adding anything
That also is not true. They do add their thoughts and observations which is what I thought these forums were suppose to be about. These are communities that should be for users. What I said I observed is suspicious because it happens only in places like r/marvel or other sub reddits that are heavily controlled by PR teams. Posts are made, people give their honest opinions, posts get deleted. I have been seeing it more and more.
These marketing teams are the reason all these social media sites fail. Lemmy is unique right now because lots of us learned from reddit. The issue isn’t posting a sale you like. The issue is censoring and hiding what the community really thinks and manipulating these spaces so its favorable to whatever marketing team pay the most.
You said other users have said similar. It tells me there might be something to pay attention to if people really want Lemmy to stay as honest and community focused as it is right now.

Hey so I’m not the only one. I was saying in another comment that I saw hype posts for sales were people didn’t get hype. The posts got deleted. I think Lemmy is starting to get marketing teams controlling content like reddit.
- Comment on Steam Autumn Sale 2023: Official Trailer 11 months ago:
I’m worried Lemmy has the same marketing teams in it that destroyed reddit.
I’ve been seeing posts promoting stuff that get filled with honest opinions. Then the post gets deleted. I assume because we all weren’t swooning
Not sure if people are not bothered by that type of manipulation of these platforms or not but it bothers me so much to see legit opinions and views get crushed by PR teams.

I’d like to get into this but I just didn’t find the initial gameplay good enough to get me into the game loop. I’m sure one day I’ll give it time. But right now I didn’t get what was fun

- Comment on I've been wondering for some time 11 months ago:
No, a bribe is an illegal form if lobbying. It is not lobbying. Do you agree? If not I can give you examples of lobbying that is not bribery. and if you can’t understanding that then you’re not reasonable and just a waste of energy.
- Comment on I've been wondering for some time 11 months ago:
That is a bribe. That isn’t what lobbying is exclusively. Lobbying is bringing your issue to politician to influence them to fight for you. Corrupt lobbyist will bribe to influence the politician. But you’re mixing up a subset of what it is with the whole. Lobbying is what groups fighting for abortion rights and civil action do every day.

- Comment on I've been wondering for some time 11 months ago:
I remember in the 80s how often the FBI got in shit by sending in agents under cover to flirt and bang all the chicks. Many got pregnant. The goal was to get information at the start. But eventually turned into subterfuge of the groups to direct them to do such radical shit they couldn’t grow and become actual threats. I can’t imagine the shit they get up to now. I assume any group big enough to get attention isn’t natural

Why not crowd fund your own lobbyist and think tank. Do what the rich do.
Think tanks create a strategy. They create bills that interest your interest. They tell you what politician to target.
Hand the package to lobbyist who target those politician and start pushing change they it ia supposed to occur. Keep your issue in front of the politician. Show them through your research that if they pass and fight for (x) that they will stay in power or gain popularity and it will benefit the country.
Or call them Nazis and throw food at works of art. Not sure the best route.

Why is everybody here behaving like a bunch of cunty redditors.
All I’ve said is I know a lot of golfers and every city I’ve lived supported multiple courses. And that some battles aren’t worth fighting. One guy called me racist.
