Banned by corrupt mods at Political Memes for being anti-fascist
I want to make this VERY clear. I am extremely progressive, way far left. Kamala Harris is the only sane choice, I'm voting for her. BUT we still have to try and get her to change bad policies like her promise to continue funding genocide. Apparently, that way of thinking will get you kicked out of certain echo chambers ran by corrupt mods like WrenFeathers and JonsJava. The first comment was in response to someone praising Biden like he doesn't also have Palestinian blood on his hands. And I apparently always have to reiterate that Dildo Tramp is 1000x worse and might actually kill us all by accident or on purpose.
I mean, have you ever heard the meme phrase "you're not wrong, you're just an asshole"?
You have a very solid point, but you ruin it by rage baiting and being a jerk by over using inflammatory accusations.
You might get less blowback if you just chill and approach posting and comments from a stance that isn't essentially a rant.
I get it, shit is frustrating when we're forced to pick the lesser of two evils (in the political sense, I haven't seen any actual evil from the democrats up for executive office in my lifetime. But, I've also seen only one evil candidate on the republican ticket in that time either. Sociopathic disregard for human rights, yes; evil, no. And there is a difference). But you gotta pick the time and place for rants.
Even here, you're so deep into hyperbole that it approaches banworthy levels based on that alone
Like, we share the same basic outlook on the need to be realistic about what the democrat platform is, but damn. You went way too hard on the meme C/, and you're going a little too hard here. And I recognize that this C/ is inherently going to run heavy to venting spleen, so I'm not saying that lightly.
So, to summarize, an open and shut case of attitude policing. Being an asshole (according to some) in the delivery isn't grounds for a ban.
Depends on the C/. You gotta check the rules, do a vibe check. What works in one place won't work in others. You went to a meme spot and got all aggro. Of course you got banned. That's not the place for that kind of "attitude"
You gotta realize, any given C/ is not really public property. It's a curated space by nature. Whoever sets it up and runs it decides what kind of community they want to build. We don't have to like their rules, but if we don't, the answer is to bugger off and start/find one that we do like.
Some mods curate by consensus; the community plays a role in determining what the rules and norms are, but it's still not the same thing as a purely public space where anything goes.
We don't want every C/ to allow some aggressive prick coming in and ranting any time they want. If every C/ is like that, shit gets old fast.
Pick your battles, but more importantly, pick your battleground. Don't start shit on a community that's pretty clear about not name calling and being a douche. Find one that allows or encourages very aggressive language. There's plenty of them.
You're gonna do what you're gonna do. Just don't pretend you don't know you're being an asshole on purpose to start shit. And don't be surprised when you end up banned from places where you didn't bother to at least do a vibe check beforehand
If being an asshole forces your hand while it breaks the (very public and fair) rules, you're gonna have a bad time.
Sorry you're behaving this way
So, OP isn’t going to see this, because they have us blocked- but I gave them several chances to explain their accusations of our community being “controlled opposition.” They refused to do so.
So they got a temporary ban.
Then, they took it to private message to insult and accuse both of us, then block us. The ban then became permanent.
We did not in any way punish them for their views as you can see in our community- there are many different viewpoints. They were removed, then banned for breaking the rules.
Simple as that.
Keep lying out your ass, buddy. You banned me from the community and then took further steps to harrass me after I blocked you and went and cried to admins to get me banned from the instance. You should be banned for falsely reporting me and unjustly banning me because you didn't like what I was saying, that had nothing to do with breaking rules.
How pathetic that you come here and lie while you thought you took away my voice to defend myself.
Youre trying to prove that you're not controlled opposition by banning people who make vague comments implying that you might be controlled opposition, and not because any rules were broken. Then come and admit that you did, in fact, ban someone for no legitimate reason.
Genius. People like you are dangerous, especially for public forums, when put in positions with any miniscule amount of power because you only abuse it.
Keep lying out your ass, buddy. Need to repost pics up here cuz troll hijacking comment to try and push the evidence lower.

The "friendly warning" was given 2 minutes after the first trigger happy mode already banned me.
I'm locking this thread because I'm now bored by it.
I'm so sorry that happened to you.
Update:
OP continued get themselves banned
Americans moralizing and calling everyone terrorists, while a trail of blood and brown bodies lays behind them is kinda hilarious in a fucked up way.
Feather dude with his petty comment applauding the accusation that the facts i presented in my initial comment were propaganda.
What you’re all not seeing here. Is that the person that I was responding to a was pointing out that the comment OP made was exactly 5 paragraphs complaining about people who write up, and this is not a joke- five paragraphs of propaganda.
“Feather dude….” was commenting on the fact that they made exactly five paragraphs that was nothing but both sides rhetoric.
Essentially pointing out the fact that they called themselves out.
Hence the “some gifts wrap themselves” comment.
You mean what everyone can see, as that comment is the main one attached to this post way at the top. Good lord, and somebody let you mod... People like you are dangerous to Lemmy and other public forums.
Your posts were pretty mild lol. The mod apparently loves genocide.
Thank you!
