Banned last night and all my comments removed for calling out a Zionist troll who FREQUENTLY posts comments trashing Palestinians and celebrating death in the name of Israel.
But I’m the one that gets banned for Checks Notes “Rule 3: No Nazis, QAnon or similar”
What a circus, mods did ZERO due diligence before banning and the Zionists comment remains!
So, one of these 4 is a certified Power Tripping Bastard
*Edit: NOT TO MENTION the frequency with which I am in the Ukraine comm in support of Ukraine and correcting false comments and shit, THE KIND OF SHIT A MOD IS FOR.
Edit 2 I will concede that maybe I posted in haste. I was seeing red for a moment there because how the fuck is a user like that still just out and about commenting.
I would just like anyone who reads this to start being more aware of WHO you are interacting with on Lemmy and be more mindful of the scum around here that have popped up more and more as reddit migrants come in. We should NOT be “tolerant” of these people, they can go fuck off to X and Meta and their other fascy platforms.
interesting considering the upvotes then. Perhaps it encouraged SOME people to maybe dig into the comment history.
People on Lemmy need to keep their eyes open and stop taking each and every comment at face value and start keeping a working memory of who these users are and how the behave, or else we may as well just let the communities turn into new reddit.
You cannot seriously expect everyone to keep track of hundreds of anonymous handles.
I can probably name like 4 Lemmy users and I only remember those because I like them.
Who are they? Genuinely curious
(All 4 are me)
Me, myself, and my alt.
My short list (most memorable, but not necessarily because I like them) is PugJesus, Yogsoth, return2ozma, and yourself. I’d add db0, but it feels like cheating since it’s the instance name as well.
Thanks!
N… Not because I like you, or anything… Baka!
Use a client that allows you to make tags. Not that difficult to immediately label the shitty people like Zionists, Racists, Transphobes, etc.
Label them to yourself, sure. Go around shouting ‘ZIONIST!’ everywhere and you come off a loon.
Guess I care too much about this platform that I’m willing to call out the scum when I see it and not let it spread bringing us all down in the process
Are there nuances to the word Zionist? I don’t know enough about the culture in the Levant. If you call someone that, you’re assuming other people know what you’re talking about. I strongly suggest you stay away from labels, but call out what they’re actually doing.
The problem is, nobody else can see the tags you apply to a user. So to everyone else, it just looks like you’re calling someone a Zionist out of the blue if they’re not already familiar with that user’s history.
Nope. I upvote that user’s comments when they seem reasonable, downvote when they aren’t. We learn from each other and rethink our own positions when called out by each other. If that user chooses not to rethink their position, that’s on them.
No thanks, I’m not willing to wait around for a Zionist to “change”. Again, perhaps go read his comments elsewhere.
I’m not waiting for them to change. I’m busy with my own stuff. People are telling you to modify your behavior. You are rejecting that. Do you.
