FlyingSquid is a Zionist who actively censors content critical of israel. In the past this was using false claims of anti-semitism but after acquiring mod powers he has started banning anti-israel posters.
After acuiquiring mod powers on /WorldNews FlyingSquid bans me by making up lies about defending the usage of child soldiers which never happened:
Recently he tried to defend himself by lying about it
After being called out for lying FlyingSquid pretends to act in good faith for a little as if he was just confused that day. Let’s see what happens when we play along:
When pointed out the he was lying the crybully instantly paints himself as the victim who is “about to be insulted”. FlyingSquid is clearly trying to bait an insult to use as an excuse for a reban:
Despite not being insulted, the crybully still claims he was. The Zionist victim complex is a sight to behold. He now demands to be acknowledged for his abuse of mod powers likely hoping to bait an insult:
After failing to ragebait insults the Zionist crybully “changes is his mind” and starts tacking on random extra conditions as an excuse to reban me. He now starts demanding acknowledgement for how amazing he is for falsely banning people.
At this point it is very obvious FlyingSquid has no intentions to unban me from WorldNews and is just trolling:
Subsequently he lies one more time in his ban description.
Edit: JordanLund has joined in and claimed that if you support any action of a group or individual, you fully support every action that group or invidividual has ever committed. Meaning that anyone who supports Joe Biden forgiving Student Loans actually supports the Genocide in Gaza and is a Zionist.
Edit2;
Your comments defending the Houthis are still up in the thread that got you banned:

Houthis attacking all three imperial superpowers at once holy based.

As one of the other mods of World News, who has personal connections to people who have lived and been abused under Israeli occupation, even I looked at some of the things you posted and went “Yeah, that goes too far.”
You’re obviously passionate on the issue, I get that, but arguing in favor of the Houthis just because they’re against Israel is not a good look.

That is what got you in trouble with Flying Squid, not because they’re a Zionist.

So you admit that according to your own logic you are a Zionist and you fully support the Genocide in Gaza?
Calling people you don’t like a Zionist is absolutely in horrible taste.
You treat people badly, you get caught, and you get bans. Hell, let’s let the people decide.

TL;DR - you believe you should be able to post what you want, where you want, and attack anybody who disagrees with you by labeling them “Zionist”. Read the rules (and the room) when posting/commenting, and you’ll have less push back.
Now, in fairness, a lot of those community bans appear to have been in error and were reversed. Nobody should hold that against them.
Thank you for this.
Off-topic but how does the modlog work? Apparently I’ve been banned somewhere for extremism but I can’t see why? https://dubvee.org/modlog?other_person_id=4130492
dubv is a weird one. You can ignore that one, as it does it to everybody. I think it’s someone’s self-hosted instance. Being banned there means nothing.
The mods comment was defending israel by claiming the Houthi’s were not blockading the red sea to prevent the Genocide from israel, but because they are just violent bad people.
This alone would not be a problem if Squid did not make up false accusations and banned me when his pro israel claims were challenged.
Just like with the MBFC bot I always support my accusations with evidence. I do not randomly start calling people Zionists for no reason.
Let’s start with that one. NONE of the moderators of [email protected] are Zionists. Throwing around baseless allegations can only lead to strife. I’m a staunch defender of Palestine, and hate what is happening to them.
We use MBFC because we need SOMETHING in place, and there aren’t many alternatives. There’s no perfect solution, and there are many topics, ASIDE from the middle east, as hard as that is to accept.
(emphasis added) - you love to call people you are arguing with Zionists.
For a person that claims to only attack with facts and data, you really love attacking us with neither.
Sorry to be this guy, but out of those 3 links, only the 2nd one was posted by FlyingSquid, are you sure you posted the correct links (might be a crosspost issue or something)
It very well could be a crosspost issue. Checking…
some were comments, and I grabbed posts. sorry

I know get server error. Not a big deal per se, thanks for checking!
apparently I can’t Lemmy today. Maybe I should eat something :(
Respond to that one. Show me the evidence of me defending the usage of child soldiers as was claimed by FlyingSquid.
I do not care about his posturing and virtue signalling comments.
The behavior of Squid and him lying for israel and crybullying users away which disagree with him debunks your entire
Once again: If FlyingSquid is not a Zionist show me the evidence of me defending the usage of child soldiers.
You don’t realize how arguments work. The onus falls on the one making the claims. Furthermore, I’ve given you chances when the rest of the mods have begged me not to. I believe in allowing all viewpoints to coexist, but you chose to attack the same people that defend you.
I’ve shown you what you asked to see. I sent you articles posted by FlyingSquid doing just that, but if it doesn’t say EXACTLY what you expect, I get “ah ha! but they didn’t say my exact magical incantation!”
Going forward, you’re on your own. You’re no victim. You’re the bully.
How about you explain calling me and the other mods of News Zionists?
So show me the evidence of me defending the usage of child soldiers.
I didn’t make that claim. Why would I? I NEVER had beef with you, but you fucking call me a Zionist.
Nope, I never said that, and anyone reading my non-mod comments in World News can see that:
https://lemmy.world/comment/11610979
Your problem is you can’t see how anyone can disagree with you and not be a Zionist.
Your problem is that you fail to use your own logic on yourself, and falsely accuse people of defending the use of child soldiers without evidence.
You are still doing this.
Read my previous comment again and do some self reflection.
I read it, you endorsed them and got banned for it. Sources are all cited above.
Either you are incapable of reading or you do not understand the difference between endorsing an action and endorsing a group.
Did you, or did you not, in fact use the word “based”?
It’s right there in the comment.

“A word used when you agree with something; or when you want to recognize someone for being themselves, i.e. courageous and unique or not caring what others think. Especially common in online political slang.”
Yes there it is Jordan. First definition in the list.
The Houthis attacking an American ship transporting oil from Russia to China and thus attacking all three global imperialist superpowers is an ACTION.
Do you understand the difference between endorsing an action, an actor, and every single action a group has ever committed?
Or are you pretending most users on .world were endorsing “The usage of child soldiers”?
“The Houthis actions in this conflict pertaining Gaza are absolutely stellar…”
Emphasis mine.
Not once, but twice. You’re endorsing war criminals.
You can keep denying it, but we have the receipts. You need to pick and choose your battles, you’re on the losing side with this one.
No one supports genocide, except maybe people who actively encourage voting against the only party that can defeat trump.
Because you’re wholly unconcerned about the very real threat that Trump is to Palestinians, your fake ass sanctimony rings HOLLOW as FUCK.
Dude… seriously. What the fuck is wrong with you?
