MODERATORS
I would’ve expected that they’re the ones who did this
4Chan is a mixed bag and rarely ever good, but they’ve absolutely fucked over scum who abuse animals like this multiple times in the past.
The kiddie porn guys? Draw the line at animal abuse? Ironic
4chan has a history of hunting down animal abusers.
Nooooo, 4chan has a serious soft-spot for animals. They will absolutely find you and ruin your life if they think you're abusing them.
4chan isn't really a monolith.
Sure, they'll do the "we are anonymous" thing and track someone down, but they'll also share videos of animal torture for entertainment.
I feel like this is closer to kiwi farms schtick nowadays, what with them being very useful in tracking down the zoo sadists a couple years back.
Kristi Noem?
Keep the reward; just give me the name and address of the perpetrators.
Seriously what monsters
Once they find the person, I'm offering an open field in a fly over state and a barbed wire baseball bat.
Thoroughly grease the inside of a dried up well, lower them into it, and give them a lighter to choose between starvation or immolation.
Jesus christ. 13 puppies. I can hardly begin to think of what punishment is fitting for someone who would do something so horrific.
They should be disemboweled and left to burn on the side of the road.
I DID NOT need to see this as I was scrolling through Lemmy this afternoon. What the fuck is wrong with people? I'd happily burn this person alive.
My cat has kittens in her spot, I am going to go tell them how good they are.
Jeff, you have several people, including me, outright calling for death in descriptive ways on your own post… yet you don’t moderate it. I can only guess it’s because you don’t disagree. But I find it pretty hypocritical that you only moderate people you disagree with, rather than enforcing the rules
We generally only remove targeted threats. One comment in this comment section was removed because it had a name in it. Feel free to report anything else you see (weirdly enough, I haven’t processed any reports today. Maybe it’s timing and other mods handled them or maybe today was a low report day)
