This comment was in response to someone expressing regret about joining .ml if I recall correctly

Edit: I’m convinced all this guy does is camp out in front of his computer and wait for an excuse to abuse what itty bitty power he has.

    1. No bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia.

    I’m not seeing it, unless website admins are a marginalised class.

          They won’t see it because they censor no-no words.

          These same people insist that like-minded adults talking things out will produce a stateless utopia. It’s funny, from a distance.

      The lemmy.ml admins who do this kind of thing are proud tankies. Pro-Russia, Pro-China, Pro-North-Korea, authoritarian “communists” are a marginalized class, dontcha know?

        I can somehow understand pro-China and less so, but still conceptionally grasp pro-Russia. But how on Earth can you really think NK is not a brainwash concentration camp?

          Tankies operate on a very simple belief system.

          US bad > Russia don’t like US > Russia good

          same for north korea, cuba, anything

            they’re also all twisted up in pretzels now because russia and the us are aligned. most are going mask off and revealing they’ve always been pro-russian shills

              that doesn’t surprise me. All extremists love Russia because they’ve become brainwashed by them. It’s really amazing how effective the brainwashing is. Ask a tankie, ask a nazi, any extremist, their views on Russia and they’re amazingly positive

          Basically, “capitalism bad = anything anti-capitalism good.” And that’s pretty ironic to both support both NK and China for that reason, since China is an authoritarian capitalist state operating under the name of communism.

          I remember seeing to mod in the post commenting on someone’s mention of North Korea. First he posted an image detailing the deaths caused by the US and South Korea during the Korean war, and that was it, no mention about NK specifically. Later he said that there was no proof that NK is brutally repressing its citizens. Then when someone said how everyone who fled NK said so, he said how they only do it for the shock value to get stories out and make money out of that, or something like that.

          Basically people like that find anything anti-US as good, and if you say anything bad about those countries, they’ll ask for proof and then call whatever you provide fake.

    They banned me recently since I was writing a comment talking about how many “memes” on [email protected] are oftentimes not even memes and just unfunny pushing communist agenda and how I was thinking about blocking the instance. It got a bit too many upvotes from them and I ended up getting banned. So in response I made this meme and posted it to [email protected]

    I dunno if scaring people off of their instance’s communities is a deliberate attempt at building an echo chamber or just genuine dumbassery.

    Honestly thank god the Lemmy devs made a platform that makes it so easy to avoid them.

    Yeah, I’ve stopped any participation in any .ml community. I’ll use any other instance version even if it’s smaller. I haven’t personally blocked the server yet, but it’s getting closer.
