Is "how can anyone support countries like these WTF?" really your idea of a fair question?
You're a troll who got banned for trolling. You weren't even creative with your trolling, just "hurr durr China bad". Do something more productive with your time.
Firstly, if you're going to just blanket defend tankies, the least you could do is pay attention, Im not OOP and this is MOWG not YPTB. MOWG is where anyone can and should post documentation of the tankies behavior, agenda pushing and biases. YPTB is where, by comm rules, only OP can post their issue.
Secondly, are you claiming OOP didn't post something truthful? Was there something incorrect? Is Russia actually LGBTQ+ friendly?
Admins of .ml love to claim that they don't censor like the "Reddit-like .world/.ee" instances, but this flys in the face of it. The mods of that comm didn't even decide to remove that post, it was davel, an instance admin that's not listed as a mod for that comm
Jesus, the guy just asked a fair question and got banned. You know what it smells like? It smells like tankies shitting their pants and calling mommy for help.
Ive seen .ee mods ban people for just as little
If things get censored you can never have a discussion about them and I think that's bad.
It's an accusation framed as a question.
But ya. The banning has gotten out of hand.
A critical mass of precious ideologues? Seems unlikely. I actually think somebody is trying to split up lemmy.
Have you not been in the same world I have for the last decade or so?
I mean you got the "pointless conspiracy theory when behavior can be explained as humans being human" part down but...
We must be familiar with a different species of human. Normal people aren't this touchy... and, I dunno, "tribal".
I actually think somebody is trying to split up lemmy.
I doubt it
It's it all political posting? Has anyone tried a similar post with a pro Russia slant?
I did. On Reddit. And got banned. Now switched to Lemmy, because I thought that mods are normal here, but it seems that either Reddit mods caught up or Lemmy is Reddit in blue. Hope not so!
Lemmy isn't a centrally controlled entity. Each instance has its own rules...
.ml for example is a Russian controlled propaganda instance. Even thinking something bad about China or Russia while browsing there is enough for a ban :p
Thanks for the hint and advice to be aware of potentially changing rules among Lemmy instances. At least there is the possibility to stay in an instance with lesser restrictions.
PS How can the mods in the .ml channel see what I think ๐ณ
They can only see if your instance hasn't defederated. There's also lemmygrad and hexbear for increasing levels of auth commie lunacy.
-2 demerits
How can anyone in good faith support the west?
/s ofc.
Rule 1 strikes again.
Literally!
OMW to spam world everyday with post like
How can you support US humhum they are very bad here's a list of all bad things US has done in history and is currently doing.
I'm a very big human defender you see humhum I don't understand how you can be an American citizen and still haven't revolted it must mean than you support every bad things that has been done by US gov..
Are you seeing all these guys minimizing US action instead of revolting ?? They are not even caring to learn they bomb middle east for no reason I guess they all support bombing Yemen.. omg US conception of human rights seems a bit barbaric, are there schools in USA ?
-16 and what's that? You're not banned ๐ฒ
"Oh, this is calamity! Calamity! Oh no, he's on the floor!"
Welcome to MoG!
Meanwhile On Grad
Documenting hate speech, conspiracy theories, apologia/revisionism, and general tankie behaviour across the fediverse. Memes are welcome!
What is a Tankie?
(caution of biased source)
Basic Rules:
Sh.itjust.works Instance rules apply! If you are from other instances, please be mindful of the rules. โ Basically, don't be a dick.
Hate-Speech โ You should be familiar with this one already; practically all instances have the same rules on hate speech.
Apologia โ (Using the Modern terminology for Apologia) No Defending, Denying, Justifying, Bolstering, or Differentiating authoritarian acts or endeavours, whether be a Pro-CCP viewpoint, Stalinism, Islamic Terrorism or any variation of Tankie Ideology.
Revisionism โ No downplaying or denying atrocities past and present. Calling Tankies shills, foreign/federal agents, or bots also falls under this rule. Extremists exist. They are real. Do not call them shills or fake users as it handwaves their extremism.
Tankies can explain their views but may be criticised or attacked for them. Any slight infraction on the rules above will immediately earn a warning and possibly a ban.
Off-topic Discussion โ Do not discuss unrelated topics to the point of derailing the thread. Stay focused on the direct content of the post as opposed to arguing.
You'll be warned if you're violating the instance and community rules. Continuing poor behaviour after being warned will result in a ban or removal of your comments. Bans typically only last 24 hours, but each subsequent infraction will double the amount. Depending on the content, the ban time may be increased. You may request an unban at any time.
