They said it’s “threatening violence”, breaking Rule 1
Yes, that is why I am here now. Got the ol’ perma ban on Reddit. Also rule 1 against Trump’s SS.
You should be in another similar community and type “tankies should be punched” and see if you get the same ban
In what world is punching communists equivalent to punching Nazis?
You deserve it by grossly understating what Nazis deserve. /s
lol yeah that was also one of my three strikes for getting perma’d from The Old Place
Welcome to the club. I said, “Remember, if you see a Nazi, punch a Nazi.”, as a play on if you see something, say something.
I decided not being able to comment or post is not a big loss, but I do still read over there.
I don’t believe you.
For real?
🤷🏻♀️
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.
Wut?
NAZIS SHOULD BE PUNCHED.
I mean, my grandfather would probably have said they deserved worse.
Removed by mod
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
No investigation, no right to speak. Homophobes should be censored.
first time?
reddit finally decided to shadowban me
The left: Maybe we have to do violence?
Liberals: How dare you!
Nazis: We already did some violence, it was awesome. We have every intention of doing more.
Liberals: Well they already did it, so let’s put it behind us.
“Look forward, not backward”
Are you insinuating it’s not the right wing influence on reddit causing this, but rather the “wrong” kind of left wing …? Lemmy is weird.
Both can exist simultaneously and share blame.
Yeah, I suppose. It’s just vastly more an issue with the right.
Cause isn’t so simple. One enables the other.
Look at how neo-Nazis abuse liberalist values to demand a protected platform. “Tolerance”, “free speech”, “anti-violence”, you know they don’t believe in these but they’ll always demand it from you.
I think he’s insinuating that libs enable fascism
There is a trend on this platform for people to be just as mad at center-left people as the fuckin actual Nazis. And it’s counterproductive as fuck
Nazis aren’t going to change, they have to be defeated. You defeat them by changing the liberals.
Fine – spraying hatred on the “liberals” won’t do that though.
Pointing out a double standard is not hatred
I’m referring to a sentiment I see all over lemmy quite often. I don’t think you get to dismiss all those cases are politely pointing it out. Plenty of other users here notice it too, and point out how counter productive it is. I mean even just the term “liberal” is seen as a proxy for evil here. My guess is that plenty of “liberal” people don’t even conform to the views they are presumed to hold, and plenty of “liberals” are very much on board with most of the same leftist ideas as the ones claiming ideological purity over the liberals. The biggest difference is that some of the purists may know more history than some of the people they hate and claim are the problem.
Liberals are not center-left, and the reason why that’s important to recognize is because in the struggle between socialism and capitalism, liberals by definition side with capitalism. Historically, liberals have sided with fascists over leftists, because leftists affirm systemic change.
Their ideology is literally violence against the vulnerable.
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.
Yes it’s a temporary ban. I’ve had previous accounts fully banned for pro-Palestine content
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? Don’t bullshit a bullshitter.
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.
More than anything, your comment was removed for the homophobic/misogynistic aspect of your insult, it wasn’t just telling someone to fuck themselves.
Oh cool so I can tell you go fuck yourself? Go fuck yourself you lying dog telling someone to suck it is neither homophobic nor misogynistic. Because if it was go fuck yourself would be too…
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.
What shame? What submission? You are being misogynistic and homophobic.
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.
And that is also some false equivalence. I mean go fuck yourself was right there.
Not as directly homophobic/misogynistic
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.
Nazis should be dead. Punching is the compromise
Nobody ever said you should stop punching
Punching is just one method to achieve the goal.
Letting Confederate live is how Trump happened
Reminder: The Capitalists won the Civil War.
