Comment and thread in question: https://lemmy.world/comment/23138585
Ban from that community, memes@lemmy.ml:
Rule 1 of said community: Be civil and nice.
Rule 1 of said instance: No bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia. Code of Conduct.
I was clearly not bigoted in any manner, and I believe more civil than the way I was treated, was it the Code of Conduct? Excerpts:
Please be kind and courteous. There’s no need to be mean or rude.
Respect that people have differences of opinion and that every design or implementation choice carries a trade-off and numerous costs. There is seldom a right answer.
I think I was kind with the people I disagreed with, even if they could not be in return, yet those comments (some including ableist slurs) remain. I think this is enough to demonstrate it is merely a difference in ideology which motivated the ban. Well, bans, because it seems they copied and pasted the same ban in all the communities they have access to:
It’s not a general lemmy.ml ban, just those in particular.
I understand this kind of behavior in safe space communities that don’t want outsiders bellyaching about the pragmatism of electoral politics, but that’s not the case in any of the communities I’ve been banned from, nor is it a part of the instance rules or CoC.
PTB or triggered shitlib? Not an exclusive or, of course.
You must log in or # to comment.
Guy came here to complain about how he was banned for electoralist garbage and he ended up getting banned for electoralist apologia. YDM troll.
@calmblue75@lemmy.ml explained why your comments were being perceived as problematic but you didn’t didn’t read the room. You might actually be in agreement with the community, but your choice of words reads as “a little genocide is acceptable.”
All genocide is unacceptable. All mass murder is unacceptable. Putting the unacceptable onto a scale of better or worse is a liberal propaganda tactic that doesn’t fly in leftist spaces. Your mistake was conflating the concept of “voting to minimize harm in a captured system” with “my genocide is more ethical than their genocide,” which is a fallacy. No genocides are ethical.
isn’t making the minimally harmful choice always ethical?
i think it’s about morality than ethics but ethics and economics (ironically) used to be connected, and part of the same discipline. Economics being quantifiable theories, and ethics being unquantifiable.
In this case, you could easily say any genocide is infinitely bad. So comparing one genocide to two genocides isn’t really possible… it’s an unquantifiable loss.
however in this case, in the captured system where two parties are pretty much the only possible winner, we can make an ethical argument for voting for the “lesser genocide”, but really only because they’re both propping up the same genocidal regime, but one is much more into it, wants to develop buildings where the people were, as well as wage other genocides.
besides, it’s much better to be able to protest without being labeled a terrorist and disappeared to some secret, third world torture prison (like cecot and liberia).
it’s really hard to think of a worse president.
i don’t see how “i want to stop this genocide and others” translates into “a little genocide is okay”. Or normalizing genocide…
i remember shortly before they switched from biden to harris, harris released a statement about protestors calling them all antisemitic and completely ignoring what they were actually protesting, and i hate her with all of my heart for that.
but she never wanted to arrest them and deport them to a foreign torture prison for life.even in math, some infinities are greater than others. I’ve seen interviews with palestinians that said they’d prefer Harris for the same reasons.
like if someone said they’ll either shoot you or stab you and you get to choose, you wouldn’t say nothing because that makes a little bit of stabbing okay.
I think the problem is that certain users chose to scape goat voters. In the end, not voting for genocide and voting for less genocide can both be seen as ethical. In either case, what followed is entirely the fault of the party that pushed the genocide as their main platform point even if it was clearly deeply unpopular and frankly ghoulish.
I think it’s also wrong to assume the dems would have done the genocide “better” than trump, and kind of silly to even present as an argument. Both are clearly in Israel’s pocket and even a little genocide (it would have been a lot under both imo) is really messed up.
The scapegoating also minimizes the genocide. Implying it should have been overlooked is softening it and what I consider Israeli propagada. It turns it into a voting issue, something we can decide on instead of what it is, essentially the world’s greatest evil.
I guess the best is to understand that it was a complex situation, but that it isn’t up to voters to change what they can stomach but up to the dems to take the genocide out of the equation. Blaming voters sends the opposite message.
This is the best response I’ve ever seen in relation to the constant voter-blaming.
I agree. In this case I think it was unfortunate wording that was perceived to carry a different meaning than intended. With discussions like this, especially among leftists, “less bad” or “less harmful” is preferred over “better,” since that carries some implied support.
1000% YDI.
After seeing your reactions to mild criticism to millionaires who don’t care about you, you deserve more. Fuck off you diet fascist.
Edit: VGA, if you’re going to downvote everyone here, you could explain why you think people are wrong.
Here’s your medal for being banned from .ml:
You can get it in 2 and 5 too, they tend to stack up.
I 100% get that we elect our opposition not our leaders. and in the US we are only given “lesser evil”, and not voting isn’t helping. OP was basically bootlicking dems and being ok with their atrocities.
you normally do have primaries though, you can gate keep the worst shit stains then.
The democratic party successfully argued in court that it doesn’t have to run honest primaries. It selectively protects centrist incumbents like Henry Cuellar, but not progressive incumbents like Cori Bush or Jamaal Bowman. And that’s when it deigns to have primaries at all.
I’m telling everyone to go participate in the primaries. you can’t sit on your ass, skip the primaries, then complain why all the candidates are bad
I vote every year, local, state, and national as well as primaries. In my state, you have to be associated with a party to vote in their primaries though so it ensures one party will not represent you essentially.
yhea, that should be the standard. good job. I mean voting in local state federal and primary elections.
You should be able to vote in multiple parties’s primaries.
Nope, again, how my state does elections. To be in the GQP primary have to be registered for them, for Dems a democrat. If you independent you get the wonderful not able to vote for anyone’s party line in the primaries.
I mean “should” as in an “ideal society”. not as in “you can do that in the current system”.
Oh, thank you for the clarification. I ultimately believe though there shouldn’t be parties, it’s all ranked choice voting for candidates not party systems. I wish to plant that tree.
I wish we had a comm just about this. My gut feeling is the media is purposely burying talking about the primaries so most don’t go vote.
this, if only a fraction of progressive people would hit the primaries, the entire democratic party would change. not in a slow reformist kind of way. but as in a radical change like they had when Republicans and Democrats switched sides.
the media doesn’t want that. the state doesn’t want that. but we absolutely need it.
What does it really matter if they can just use superdelegates anyway or have half the race drop out and endorse the annointed candidate.
I think superdelegates are only for presidential primaries.
for every other candidate there aren’t superdelegates. and every elected officials that isn’t bought be AIPAC counts.
Yeah I am talking about the presidential election
"you can’t sit on your ass, skip the primaries, then complain "
stop me
no need, you already said you’re doing nothing. that’s already stopped.
I didn’t say I’m doing nothing.
have a nice day
lemmy.ml is an instance well-known for being, shall we say… unreasonable when it comes to politics.
The admins and a large portion of the user base are tankies— people who claim to be extreme leftists/communists but really worship the likes of Stalin, Xi and the oppressive authoritarian government of regimes, such as the Soviet Union, China, and North Korea. They are very much intolerant any criticism whatsoever or anyone else’s political views. Unfortunately, the administrators of that instance are also the main developers for Lemmy itself.
This is why
the code has been forked to another platformalternatives to lemmy have been developed, such as PieFed, which is federated and interoperates with Lemmy, and is not dependent on the crazy ass developers. It also has better mod and admin features. but even if you don’t wanna switch to PieFed, you can at least avoid communities on Lemmy.ml. I have the whole instance blocked.piefed is not a fork, it’s a completely different codebase. with plenty of its own problems.
oh, my mistake. with a quick google, I see that it’s python, not rust, so yeah, obviously not a fork. my mistake!
did you also see the opinionated parts? if you enable the default filter list piefed hides all meme and 4chan communities and enables built in image recognition specifically to prevent people from posting greentexts. it also keeps an internal tally of user “quality” based on what communities they post in.
truly everything is political.
Oh, damn, that “user quality” metric is really messed up
It’s also fake.
It’s a misunderstanding of a setting admins can enable that makes it so meme communities don’t add to your karma. That way, you can’t karma farm by posting memes.
I’m a piefed admin and My instance has that setting disabled because I like memes.
Not fake when it’s in documented code anyone can read, and the creator explicitly states it’s fine.
yeah, I don’t really consider those to be the “problems” others do, especially since instance admins can simply disable those features.
Same. And like you said its easy to remove for instances. I think its like the third screen when you set up the instance. Im having a wonderful time on piefed and a couple of my PRs were accepted no fuss.
of course they can, just like how the ml admins can choose not to have their weird swearing filter that nobody else uses. but it’s still in there and that’s what they thought communities wanted. eg, that’s what they wanted for their community. point being, no codebase is neutral and i don’t know the intent of the piefed dev either.
ok, but, again, I don’t view what the piefed dev did as problematic. the lemmy devs? I do find them problematic for many reasons, including the ones I’ve already mentioned.
so, enough with the whataboutisms
it’s not a counter-accusation trying to paint one in a better light than the other. i want none of it, and the fact that the bias is apparently okay as long as the politics are aligned feels pretty shit.
piefed hides all meme and 4chan communities
Fake news
built in image recognition specifically to prevent people from posting greentexts
Based
keeps an internal tally of user “quality” based on what communities they post in.
Fake news.
I’m a PieFed admin and I’ve read some of the source code, ask Me anything.
so have i, it’s in there. again, the filter is not on by default but the preset blocklist includes those communities. and it’s called “reputation” in the code.
https://piefed.social/c/lemmyshitpost@lemmy.world
This is lemmyshitpost, a meme community, as viewed from piefed.world. It is also proof that piefed doesn’t hide meme communities.
it’s only proof that that specific instance hasn’t enabled the setting to do so.
Piefed isn’t a fork, it’s a completely different piece of software using the same protocol.
I don’t think the Lemmy Devs have much to do with the bans on that server, it’s mostly the community mods.
Dessalines does bans like this all the time.
I’ve said before that if Dessalines spent half as much time developing the platform instead of banning people for wrongthink, Lemmy would be a much better platform.
Lemmy donations are a scam. People give them all that money, and they use the money to hire full time developers, who spend all day banning people instead of writing code.
I’m not sure where I heard it was a fork, but I’m obviously misremembering.
fixed
It’s an easy mistake to make, I only know they’re different because piefed is python while Lemmy is rust.
I’m sure I forgot because I’m pretty baked right now, lol
I thought that was more limited to lemmygrad, sad to see.
oh, no… lemmygrad is just much, much worse. also avoid hexbear. it’s like lemmygrad x 4chan
Removed by mod
Yeah just avoid communities on that instance and you’ll be fine.
OP got banned from this community for “Bad jacketing and electoralism”, and while I aint reading 125 comments to see bad jacketing, including electorialism as a ban reason is wild af.
Regardless if PTB or YDI, I think grass touching might be in order for multiple parties here for taking online politics LARP too seriously. It’s a beautiful spring weather, perfect for a walk.
they were calling people who they think didn’t vote nazis. seems like a pretty good reason to ban someone. they were also banned from AN because they wouldn’t stop calling me honey.
all in all, a rather unpleasant liberal, who was given the chance to find posting opportunities elsewhere.
they were also banned from AN because they wouldn’t stop calling me honey.
Ugh. I hate it when shitlibs add an inappropriate pet name to the end of their condescending apologia for genocide.
they wouldn’t stop calling me honey
Gross
Look I’m not saying op was right but like at some point we have to acknowledge the elephant in the room. The non-voters/moderates/apolitical/silent majority/whatever the fuck you want to refer to them as is always simultaneously the biggest roadblock to progress and the biggest enabler of authoritarianism. Read and listen to what former Nazis had to say on the subject, listen to the survivors of their attrocities who were the moderate/apolitical group until authoritarianism kicked in their own personal door.
“We must take sides. Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim. Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented."
I’m curious what you mean by this quote, as it feels a bit both sides doesn’t it?
The first half seems to indicate one should just vote dem because lesser of two evils (not voting being “neutrality” in my reading) so then in the second half…
You had a lot of leftists rightly pointing out Kamala would not commit to ending support for Israel’s genocide, and we were told to shut up and just vote the lesser evil anyway.
So… Silenced and then what happened
For all their corpo-friendly faults, Democrats are demonstrably less oppressive than Republicans. Vote for the lesser evil, then don’t be silent about the support of genocide. But keep the greater evil out first.
Vote for the lesser evil, then don’t be silent about the support of genocide. But keep the greater evil out first.
So it turns out that wasn’t a convincing argument for enough voters.
And we’re all paying the price for their terrible judgement.
Voting for Democrats is not voting for success. IDK why we have to keep telling people that. At the very best, voting Dem is a vote for maintaining the decades of fascism and civil rights abuses by them. It’s a vote for the status quo, even at the best of times and during the best years. Usually, however, voting for the Dems is voting for the erosion of civil rights, genocide and human rights abuses in Asia, and the proliferation of corporate and Israeli control over the nation. They aren’t the “lesser of two evils”, they ARE the same evil, and anyone who says otherwise is an entitled white person who doesn’t have to live through the human rights abuse they gleefully take part in.
The only difference between them and Trump is that finally, Americans like you are having to actually live through the shit you put the rest of the world through. Hopefully you reflect on the experience and see what a horrible country you live in, and actually start voting for somebody who will change that.
I highly doubt that though.
It took me too long to get this, but man when I did, I was fuming. People like to point the positive of what Dems may do but I point out what negatives they OFTEN do. Biden was pro police, bipartisan, even said we NEEDED republicans. “Both sides” he called it. I’m done compromising my morals for fetid waste that is the Democrat party. Does the vote blaming carry over through most of Lemmy because if so, I have about 6 accounts I haven’t blocked I need to report.
So you don’t live in America but you somehow know exactly what it’s like to live there under every variable across every administration? Congratulations, you are as American as the most devout maga.
I do live in America. I was born here. But I have no loyalty to this fetid country. So you’re right, I don’t consider myself American. I would never willingly associate with such a murderous terror regime.
Exactly. And especially so when its “Dems are just as bad”.
No they the fucknare not.
Dems suck ass, but there is absolutely ZERO path towards progressive policy and a net positive through the GOP. Zero. They are an agressive, regrrssive, boat anchor, dragging everyone and everything backwards. Dems at least pay fucking lip service to and throw a bone to progressive policies. A bone that can be turned into a seed for actual positive change.
The GOP would rather grind thst shit to dust and tell you id doesn’t exist.
Dems at least pay fucking lip service to and throw a bone to progressive policies.
And then find just enough no votes so they can block those policies, like with the public option and every tangible individual benefit in Build Back Better. Or we need the parliamentarian on board like with minimum wage. Or we need to ask every federal employee until we get the “no” we’re looking for like biden did with cannabis rescheduling.
The left saw a party that they suspected was ineffectual on purpose.
Then they turned around and proved it by getting out of their own way and ignoring actual laws to sell weapons for genocide. They could have found an excuse not to. They’re amazingly adept at finding them when they don’t want to keep their campaign promises.
Dems suck ass, but there is absolutely ZERO path towards progressive policy and a net positive through the GOP. Zero.
And what progressive policies have we had with them in office?
No they the fucknare not
Tell us you have no idea what happens outside of the US without telling us you’re an uneducated American who has buried their head in the sand to avoid thinking about how the democratic party has a long history of supporting human rights abuses in Asia.
Removed by mod
Yeah, let them solve their own damn problems.
how is the US supplying bombs to Israel so they can bomb Asians their problem? the fuck?
Because they don’t realize the USA has been imperialist from the beginning and still easy. That it’s corporate imperialism mostly with a lot of defense companies running it.
A lot of the problems other countries are facing are because of US!
Yup. If two rapists walk up to me and tell me to choose between them, I’m choosing the one who will give me medical care, education, improved economy for the working class instead of investing class, public infrastructure, nature preservation, and a tease of corporate regulations instead of the one who will empty my wallet and return nothing. Either way we’re getting fucked, may as well get fucked like an old housewife instead of a slave.

The problem is that neither made a convincing case that they were interested in doing any of that.
We get minor improvements to everything I listed when Democrat terrorists are in office, Republicans destroy existing policies for everything I listed every time they get power. Nature preservation alone makes the Democrats a million times better of an option, we are fucking the planet exponentially less with them in office, this is a fact.

So their apologists keep saying to people who are suffering. Rejoice! Prescription drug prices are down! (For 10 drugs! Available only to boomers on Medicare!) What do you mean you can’t afford groceries?! Have you seen how great Bezos is doing? The economy is great, now shut up!
Genocide always gets the front seat at the trough. Where you want it. And netanyahu didn’t have to listen to excuses about how everything was slightly better for billionaires so he should be happy.
Here’s a thought. Throw the rapists out and elect somebody who isn’t a rapist, you fucking weirdos.
Yeah,you are right, but we don’t get there without passing through the “friendly.housewife rapist” first, so we can at least get back to a “normal” level.
Oh yeah I’m sorry I guess I just imagined that literally every single government on the planet is assisting the pedo ring run by my elected pedo rulers. You’re literally acting like an American rn… even demonstrating the same levels of willful ignorance and blind ego as the most red of Maga. Congratulations you’re more American than 1/2 of their own population!
I like how you’re doing your best to make giving up and deciding that you’re just going to have to pick between pedos from now on seem like the smart choice. That’s pretty disgusting, not gonna lie. And worst of all, you don’t seem all that bothered by it.
OP went from being just a person with some passionate political views, to being an argumentative dick real quick.
But your point stands. Spring here. Beautiful out. Going out for a walk right now!
What is bad jacketing?
coming into an anarchist instance and telling people you get to decide if they’re anarchist or not.
Its absolutely hilarious that there are two types of people in this thread, people who read your comments and people who see ml so assume it must be a PTB. How about you make it easier for everyone and post those offending comments?
People would rather just say ml bad then do any reflection on what’s going on around them. Especially when it requires them to change views
You could convince the vast majority of .world users to unilaterally agree with a hardcore Nazi if you said “look these evil ml tankies just censored a poor innocent liberal”
I mean, it works well enough for the liberals. I’d say about 60% of band from .ml are deserved, and the 40% is bullshit.
But .world and MWoG think that if you were banned for advocating for America to invade places to “liberate” them, you’re actually a victim.
Or simply say nazis shouldn’t exist. They come out of the woodwork to say stop calling those you don’t like nazis on posts saying nothing but no nazis 🤷🙃

you don’t need to be here. you can just leave.
But then They couldn’t troll for a response.

The mods didn’t seem to think so.
The source was based, the meme was not.
DNC are subhuman trash that promote zionist supremacist first rule over the US for 90% of their candidates. True demonic evil that also serves corporatist/oligarchist power. GOP are far worse. Total zionist supremacists with added focus of Zionist first christofascism and white supremacism. Corporatist/Oligarchist supremacism is even stronger than incumbent power protection. All in on dead ender climate terrorist energy, and overt war goals to increase oil profits in complete lockstep with deranged lunatic in chief.
There absolutely is a big difference in voting block power, and in minimizing the oppression level of Americans. You should still vote for the lesser subhuman demonic zionazi evil.
There is strong potential for primary campaigns to oppose Israel supremacism of candidates, and even if opponents get 100x more funding, their demonic zionazi allegiances could theoretically harm their vote totals.
whaaaat the fuuuuck
oh, then there’s this bit from you:
why would Democrats not be the clear superior if only because they don’t cause needless suffering to interior minorities?
tell us you’re a white male without telling us. you are so out of touch with reality, it’s a wonder you can tie your fucking shoes.
PTB or triggered shitlib?
motherfucker, YOU are the triggered shitlib.
I don’t know what people expect will happen when they go into leftist communities or even just communities run by leftists and start spouting shitlib electoralist apologia.
The same thing the DNC expects when they trot out their chosen candidate at the behest of the donors instead of a popular progressive
Removed by mod
i’m not gonna dignify this nonsense with a retort
Yes, assuming Democrats and Republicans have 100% identical foreign policy, and the only difference is less oppression on marginalized groups, why does that not make them the clear superior choice in a two party election? Why are you willing to let more suffering happen because the lesser evil isn’t lesser enough?
If every election is a decision between the lesser of two evils and both evils become more evil over time then harm isn’t actually reduced in the long run.
The Democrats lost because they were genocidal. The Democrats are to blame for that, for being genocidal, not voters who refused to support genocide.
Do you want genocide? If not, you cannot in good conscious vote for a genocidal candidate. If you vote for genocide, and genocide happens, you got what you voted for.
Don’t like it? Take it up with the DNC.
and both evils become more evil over time
Has that actually happened though? There are certainly many issues Democrats have been improving on since Clinton.
The Democrats lost because they were genocidal
Irrelevant, I don’t care why they lost, I’m asserting that they would have been better. Thank you for your soapbox though.
The Democrats are to blame for that, for being genocidal, not voters who refused to support genocide
Sure, but those voters are also to blame for the non-genocide issues which get worse when the Democrats lose.
Do you want genocide? If not, you cannot in good conscious vote for a genocidal candidate. If you vote for genocide, and genocide happens, you got what you voted for.
This is simplistic thinking which ignores the reality of the situation. The only thing a voter can do in a general election is pick the party that more closely aligns with their values, that does not mean ALL of the party’s values are the voters, but simply the more palatable one.
So yeah, genocide sucks, but not doing your electoral part means all the extra bullshit Republicans do[1] is what you voted when you abstain.
1: since clearly the people who have problems with what I say don’t care about minorities being harassed, kidnapped, and killed, I’ll keep it simple with “doing nothing about the climate catastrophe” and “being egregiously pro-business/anti-consumer,” maybe with a side of “overwhelmingly anti-labor.”
Don’t like it? Take it up with the DNC.
Oh thank you for asking, I have actually.
and both evils become more evil over time
Has that actually happened though? There are certainly many issues Democrats have been improving on since Clinton.
There’s no way you can be serious. How sheltered are you?
Are you like some rich white guy who has no working class friends or something? I genuinely don’t understand.
mate. i appreciate you being open and proving that banning you was the correct choice.
who exactly began the mass deportations? how I live the free healthcare that Biden gave us instead of funding a genocide.
people like you is exactly why this nation is now a fascist shithole.
who exactly began the mass deportations?
clinton. obama started the concentration camps that trump is now sending families to.
what, you thought democrats were somehow better on immigration? clinton deported two million more people than bush did. obama changed the system to favor speed over fairness, resulting in record numbers of deportations. most of whom were not dangerous to anyone. every time we get a democratic president, they use the tools republicans created to drastically increase the suffering of minorities, and increase state surveillance of americans while decreasing civil rights.
the whole system is rotten to the core
I think you might be replying to the wrong user, though OP got instance banned, so I think they can’t hear you anyways
sorry, I might have misclicked.
There’s no way you can be serious. How sheltered are you?
How sheltered are YOU? America is a conservative country and things change slowly, but they do change. Some thing have improved in my lifetime, I don’t think that’s a controversial statement. Just because capitalism hasn’t been completely overthrown yet doesn’t mean there is no change.
I’m a union rep, so not sheltered at all. I have a front row seat to the degradation of society. Things have been consistently getting worse since the '70s at least.
Sure, some things have improved, nobody is denying that. Some things have improved, but many more significant things have gotten worse. The thing is, the stuff that has improved is like +5 improvement, and the things that have gotten worse is like -100.
TVs are cheaper, but food, rent and childcare are more expensive, all relative to wages, just for an example.
I want to go back a step, and try to understand you here. What do you do for work?

Thanks for your work! I was in a union all the way up until I retired last year. They are becoming more and more rare these days, sadly.

Well, except the acceptance of queer people, of course. Women’s lib is also much more widely accepted, if we’re going that far back.

lmao shut your fucking mouth about suffering, you piece of shit. you don’t get to lecture people about suffering after saying shit like that, you disgusting liberal asswipe.
Cope and seethe, you dehumanize people for ideological purposes, your boos mean nothing.
which is why you ran here to complain about getting banned, you shitlib. you need our sympathy for your assnine takes in order to make you feel good about being unconcerned with the suffering of minorities.
you will never be a good person.
Wow, what an insufferable goof.
Hope things get better and/or you grow out of it.
grow out of hating fascists? not likely.
The person you’re being an asshole at is clearly not a fascist.
It seems like you’re angry, want an excuse to shit on people and are wrapping it in politics you don’t seem to understand.
Like I said, hope you grow out of it or things get better.
Wanting things to be better for marginalized people does not a fascist make.
you need our sympathy for your assnine takes in order to make you feel good about being unconcerned with the suffering of minorities
Umm honey you’re the one unconcerned with minorities suffering. Are you feeling okay? You’re clearly having issues projecting.
don’t call people “honey” unless you want to catch a instance ban. I’m not your fucking honey.
Oh my bad, shitlib motherfucker. How many marginalized lives have you made worse today?
What did you expect by going to .ml instance and try to set a point that goes against the community’s ideology? You thought you’d change their minds? Convert them?
To put it simply, what would you expect to happen if you would go to Star Wars forum and told them that Star Wars is shit and Star Trek is better?
They like many others wanted to get banned to show how terrible it is they won’t allow op to be awful to others
I can’t actually see what your [deleted] comments say but even if they were objectionable to their rules in that community, revoking your access to other communities entirely irrelevant to memes@lemmy.ml seems completely PTB.
Especially as you’ve got BrainInTheBox there running rampant, as usual.
IIRC, on lemmy instances, there is no actual “instance-wide ban” feature. to do a ban like that, you have to get banned from all of the communities you’re subscribed to via some scripted tool, so this is how it shows up. this is one of the improvements the platforms like mBin and PieFed have included in their code. apparently, it’s still “coming soon” in Lemmy’s code.
Yes, it is possible abbotsbury copped an instance ban and thus was banned from all lemmy.ml communities they had previously posted to. Note that the weird way instance bans are handled has been solved on Piefed.
I didn’t know Mbin also did it though.
Lemmy 1.0 addresses the issue, when it comes out instance bans on Lemmy will work the same way they do on Piefed now.
Lemmy 1.0 will come out the same day China achieves communism.
That’s nearly as far away as the day the Democrats listen to non voters
exactly. as I have never run a lemmy instance, I don’t know what the admin tools look like, but I read someone describe it in a comment here several weeks ago.
Yeah BitB was pretty crazy, seemingly waiting around to reply instantly up and down the thread even when I was replying to others.
