They said it’s “threatening violence”, breaking Rule 1

      I certainly believe them. I have been banned on reddit for some of the mildest shit. If you call out lying scumbag right wingers you will be banned on any corporate social media. If you lie and spread right wing hatred, you will be left alone as long as you stop short of breaking specific rules.

        I rarely see right wing nonsense outside of twitter and substack. Everywhere else it’s just “leftists” (actually FEDS trying to set the tune in a violent key for people left-of-center) inciting violence on “nazis”.

          Doesn’t sound like you’ve used Facebook in the past ten years or reddit in the past couple. I quit Facebook five years ago and it was a cesspool by then. Reddit is fucking awful now too, I recently saw after the Charlie Kirk killing. I won’t be going back.

    Reddit’s AI banbots are basically killing the platform leaving nothing but scrapbooking and macrame subs.

    My very first suspension was agreeing that it is always okay to punch a Nazi. That’s how I first found out that there is some controversy about intolerance of Nazis.

    I wish it went both ways. I’m all for being able to say Nazis should be punched, even if I think it’s a stupid statement. But I also said LGBTQ politics should be kept out of Pokemon communities and got banned for that. Free speech for all or none at all

        The person you responded to is a liar though. No one was sympathizing with Nazis in any way and they came in telling people to kill themselves. They were banned completely justifiably.

          You would definitely say that. You haven’t ever suffered from the failure that is humanizing fascists. Humanzing them is sympathizing with them. They choose to not be human. Heck theyre proud to not be human.

          It’s more insulting to them to call them human, as that implies youre on the same thing as them, something they objectively do not believe.

            This is so stupid I don’t even know where to begin. Dehumanization is what leads to disgusting cruelty like Nazis engage in.

            You do realize it’s possible to support the execution of Nazis and still think they are humans? Such a bizarre world in which that would ever need to be said out loud.

              No, I personally do not think we should execute humans under any circumstance. However fascists are not human.

              They, again, choose not to be. And as the paradox of intolerance states, we cant really accept them in human communities.

              Dehumanization is something they voluntarily did to themselves. You cant even say they were tricked or duped into it. We’re in the information age. Practically all adults in the us have made it past 8th grade. They chose to believe they weren’t human like us. I’m simply honoring their wishes and beliefs.

                This is just a semantic trick you think you can use to stay holier than thou and also kill people who deserve it. Doesn’t work that way. Humans can only become not human by dying and becoming dust again. Semantic tricks don’t change that. I sense this conversation will go even more poorly from here so I’m blocking you for my mental health.

      Continuing the lie that calling out dehumanization being wrong is “sympathizing with Nazis”.

      I specifically said Nazis are pieces of shit but still human and you told me I’m scum and to kill myself.

      What an innocent fucking victim.

    You say banned but you only get banned after repeated violations if what you say is true it was the straw on the camels back. Here on some community I was racially profiled and I told the person to go fuck themselves and my post was removed but not theirs.

    We are all just at the mercy of some very insecure and weak mods who feel strong spitting on expression. Reddit is actually better in some regards because there is a degree of accountability, no one is holding these scat instances accountable.

      More than anything, your comment was removed for the homophobic/misogynistic aspect of your insult, it wasn’t just telling someone to fuck themselves.

          Telling someone to “suck your dick” is generally homophobic/misogynistic, and draws on societal shame towards heterosexual women and gay men performing those acts, and submitting to you, for doing so. Being rude doesn’t get removed nearly as much as those kinds of insults.

              I am not being misogynistic nor homophobic. The only reason dicksucking is usable as a pejorative is to draw on historic sexism and homophobia, and telling someone to suck your dick draws on that social trauma. Telling someone to give you a haircut, for example, is still a service but doesn’t have that social trauma to make it a pejorative, and thus it doesn’t hit like one.

                You are saying givers of oral pleasure, generally heterosexual women and homosexual men, are doing something that is shameful and traumatic? That’s homophobic and misogynistic.

                  No, it isn’t homophobic nor misogynistic to state that there have been generations of bigotry and sexism. Again, if you meant oral sex in a positive, liberating way, then it would not be a pejorative. That’s why telling someone to give you a haircut isn’t insulting, even though it’s a service.

        You say you had multiple accounts banned for pro palestine content but you mean your accounts got banned because you were creating multiple accounts to bypass rule enforcement… lemmy.ml is famous for its political censorship are you just doing this to distract from that?

          All instances do political censorship, Lemmy.ml is “famous” for it because instances like Lemmy.world that censor leftists defederate from the communist/aligned instances except for Lemmy.ml. Instances affirm and reinfirce certain stances and viewpoints.

            No they do not and if they did it is a bad thing join me in calling it out. Famous because when researching what lemmy to join .ml was heavily warned against because of the strong political censorship.

              I’ve been banned for calling out the DNC’s support for genocide of Palestine, calling out transphobia, etc. Lemmy.world is pro-liberalism, and censors dissent. It also blocks the 2 most active communist instances, Lemmygrad.ml and Hexbear.net, meaning it censors them absolutely.

              Lemmy.ml is pro-communist and anti-liberal, yes. Hate speech and right-wing apologia are removed. The people complaining about censorship on Lemmy.ml are largely those who go against that. Lemmy.ml is more broadly federated than Lemmy.world is, though, so we can see more diverse viewpoints.

              All instances censor, be it overtly or through soft means like defederation. All instances have political bias in some manner.
