The Brooklyn woman accused of leaving a brick scrawled with a swastika and the word “Nazi” on a parked Tesla is a super-woke family therapist who was involved in criminal justice divers…
Wait so are you saying you had bans from telling people not to live; as a conservative or?
No, I’ve been banned because some liberals on Lemmy think there’s only one acceptable way to live. And it’s their way.
The same people who preach about “diversity,” “tolerance,” and “open dialogue” are often the ones who shut down opposing views. I’ve been banned just for posting news articles that lean conservative, and in some cases, people assumed I was someone else entirely.
A lot of users think I’m a guy called Universal Monk, even though I looked him up and he’s actually a socialist—and not even banned from Lemmy. He still posts on Lemmy, yet they think I am him. But with a different name, political slant, and interests. Ok…
Anyway, because some users think I’m him, and disagree with his views, they ban me. Feel free to right-click my name and see “moderation history.” You’ll see all my bans are because they think am an alt of “UM.” I’m not, but meh, it’s fucking Lemmy, so it is what it is. :)
Even though I’ve never advocated violence, never pushed intolerance, and only post content to relevant communities. I’ve even been banned from non-political communities just because I posted conservative news in conservative spaces. That’s literally banning someone for posting appropriate content where it belongs. They are looking my post history up, decide that since i post conservative news articles to conservative news communities, that I must be evil and ban-worthy. lol
It’s hypocritical. The very behavior liberals accuse conservatives of—intolerance, censorship, gatekeeping—they’re guilty of doing themselves, especially on Lemmy.
I’m just clarifying for my argument though. In the end, none of this matters in the real world. And it doesn’t really bother me that much.
This is just an online forum that other people seem to take way too seriously though.
Same kind of mindset I think these protesters are in. They are taking shit way too personally. As in, “Hey I hate Trump. Trump likes Musk. Here’s a Tesla. Let’s fuck it up!” It’s cringe and stupid.
What if republicans started fucking up cars that had a “Harris” bumper sticker on it? Would that be celebrated? lol
Meh, I think Lemmy would celebrate. Look at how much they celebrate Luigi. And that dude committed murder!
But back to subject of article, I think these protestors who get caught, pretty much regret their choice immediately.
I protested something when I was in college. I was protesting them shutting down a diversity program that I was actually co-lead of. I 100 percent expected to get arrested for it and even had plans for my mugshot. lol
Nothing happened tho. No arrest. And the program wasn’t saved. My point being, if you are gonna do something like this, then proudly take the heat. Don’t hide your face and say you were just going through a rough time like this woman did.
What got you to change, or had you changed from supporting those diversity program?
I haven’t changed at all. I still support diversity. Many conservatives support diversity. There are conservatives of all colors. My neighbors are black and they all love Trump. I’m bi-racial myself.
What do you mean that it should be wrapped on diversity.
I’m saying that diversity wraps up the the entirety of DEI. It’s all the same thing in modern context. If you support diversity, then that means you support equity and inclusion. If you didn’t, then you wouldn’t be accepting diversity.
And yes, regardless of the narrative that Lemmy likes to put out there, most conservatives are not against diversity. LIke I said, there are many diverse conservatives. Minorities, gay, etc.
Did you think that only straight white guys were conservative?

It was just budget cuts.
I have no issues with equity/inclusion. It should all be wrapped under diversity.
