There was a very recent post requesting a defederation with lemmygrad.ml.

The post was requesting it due to a large amount of anti Israeli posts and celebrations of the deaths of Israeli citizens both military and civilian.

I’ve checked the modlog in hopes of understanding why those actions were taken, but no note was left. I’d like to ask why those actions were taken. Thanks!

      I don’t remember seeing that.

      What I do remember seeing was quoted statements with links at the end of the quote to the exact comment.

      I’ve already seen one person mistake the quotes for actual statements from the user, could it be this was the situation?:

      Op made post with the quotes. Commentor A read the post and mistook the quotes for statements Commentor A response as a normal person would “hey stop saying shitty things” Op responds with more negative quoted statements

      It feels weird but I’ve seen people be obstinate for no good reason on Lemmy before.

      Lemme know what you think since I missed that comment thread.

      Also, looks like the ban was updated to a 24 hour ban with a message “stop the hate speech” which I feel adds weight to my recollection of the situation and theory that OP’s post was misread.

      Update: misread or not, OP is doing a lot of what looks like ban evasion. Even going as far as creating accounts on other instances.
