    Yeah, I’m kinda surprised to see so much memery about how lemmy.ml would be whisper quiet after this.

    I’m still seeing the same propaganda from them - no measurable drop.

      Kinda makes you wonder if the memes about .ml are completely unfounded bullshit. Or maybe it doesn’t, since evidence clearly isn’t necessary for people to believe what they want to.

        I do love the irony of your comment when I’m actively in the process of appealing a ban for being an imperialist troll when I am clearly neither but committed the high crime of disagreeing with an .ml in an .ml community.

          Sure, that’s what irony is.

          How the hell would I know what you clearly are or aren’t from two comments where essentially all you do is whine about .ml?

            You misread my comment. I’m not saying you should know I’m clearly not an imperialist troll. I’m saying they had no reason to believe that when they banned me.

            But again ironically you kinda add fuel to my point about .mls anecdotally confirming stereotypes at virtually every opportunity; you leapt to a conclusion and used that to immediately become hostile, which is often my experience with .mls

            Giving the benefit of the doubt, you lot are proactively defensive of what you view as an ideology above reproach, and anyone who even appears to disagree with you must therefore be evil and any measure of negative action against them is justified as a result.

            In other words, it’s a mix of arrogance and an Ends Justify the Means philosophy, kinda like fascists. In your defense, you differ from the fascists you so famously hate because at least your arrogance is founded upon much more ostensibly moral grounds - the desire to protect and advocate for the vulnerable of the world. Fascists obviously make no such claims about the foundation of their philosophies - they openly seek to oppress and destroy everyone but them.

            In sum, I get along with .mls more than I get along with fascists, but when I politely disagree with .mls, they make no qualms about resorting to all manner of bad faith tactics against me and people like me, so they progressively earn my contempt with virtually every interaction, this one included.

              My dude, I didn’t leap to any conclusions. I said quite explicitly I had no way of knowing anything about your ban because all you’ve done is complain about something completely tangential in a reply to my comment.

              If you’re so upset about this ban on your account named “throwaway” why don’t you just make another disposable account to harass complete strangers about irrelevant moderation decisions?

                Did you not read my first four words of my reply? I never said you did. Want me to write that in a different language? Different font?

                Sorry to hear you dislike how conversations go from tangential topic to tangential topic. Might I suggest deleting your account so you never have to suffer such horror again?

                If you’re so upset about this ban on your account named “throwaway” why don’t you just make another disposable account to harass complete strangers about irrelevant moderation decisions?

                My username is a pun. If we’re talking about irrelevance, why do you want to talk about usernames?

                Classic .ml behavior - good faith arguments are frowned upon.

                  I think maybe, given the dearth of evidence you’ve provided to the contrary, your ban may have been justified.

                  Good luck with your appeal, and goodbye.

                    Nah, I’m neither an imperialist apologist nor a troll.

                    It’s pretty easy to tell that it’s not the case because you cite absolutely nothing (because you’re right, there is a dearth - a total lack - of evidence). It’s probable that y’all just don’t like dissent and ban people for it.

                    Here watch, I’ll do it to you:

                    You, [email protected], are a racist. There’s tons of evidence to support that, but I won’t be citing any of it.

                    Goodbye.
