I fled Reddit due to the authoritarian mod craziness, but Lemmy.world seems infested with too much Communist craziness. I’m leftist, but communism is idiocy. Is there an instance that leans more democratic socialist but refrains from going off the deep end?
I mean let’s not pretend that there aren’t a lot of psychotic mods on world. It’s gets pretty bad. Hell I got banned from a community for criticizing a New York Post article once. Which I mean shit, how do you not?
I never pretended otherwise. But I gotta tell you the same thing I said in another comment where someone was allegedly banned for basically nothing: I highly doubt that’s the entire story
You can go look it up if you want it was like I don’t know 8 months ago. Literally all it was. That’s why it’s stuck in my craw. Didn’t give two shits about the community, I wasn’t a member of it. Just so weird that that Jeff guy banned me for criticizing the New York Post.
That’s another red flag right there 🤷♂️
All right I’ll bite, why is that a red flag? This is Lemmy. Not so big that you don’t end up in communities you’re not a part of all the time. Hell I’m not a part of this community.
You’re so certain you did absolutely nothing wrong, but that requires you to understand the community rules and be certain you didn’t violate them. But you admit you not only aren’t a member but don’t give a shit about the community.
Do you really not see how this comes across?
Can you show me one community on all of Lemmy in which it’s rule says you cannot criticize the source of a post? Also I don’t know why you think I’m incapable of checking the rules of a community, extremely insulting for no reason whatsoever. If you’re so positive I did something wrong you’re free to prove it. You can go back and look it up.
Do you not see how you’re coming across though? You say you’re not pretending that there isn’t a massive moderation problem on world and here you are tying yourself in knots when people tell you of massive moderation problems on the world.
We are way off in the theoretical right now and you are asking me to defend a point I didn’t make.
You said all you did was criticize an article. You have given no other context other than 1) you weren’t a part of the community and 2) you don’t give a shit about the community. Now you’re off talking about theoretical nonsense.
I am responding to what you wrote. This is your story, it’s supposed to be favorable toward you and frankly it isn’t. You don’t owe me an explanation but if you’re going to defend yourself you’re going to have to do better than strawmen and sounding disrespectful towards a community you allegedly did nothing wrong in.
Disrespectful to a community you serious? And no other context? I told you it was a New York Post article. If you need more context than that then I can’t help you. You are just not a serious person.
You have backed yourself into an impossible situation to defend. That’s why you’re resorting to personal attack and hostility here. There’s entire communities, which apparently you don’t respect I guess, dedicated to mod abuse in World in particular. Yet you seem to think it’s impossible for a mod to be unreasonable. As I’ve said before if you’d like to show me how my comments were unreasonable you may do so.
