Ban from that community, memes@lemmy.ml:
Rule 1 of said community: Be civil and nice.
Rule 1 of said instance: No bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia. Code of Conduct.
I was clearly not bigoted in any manner, and I believe more civil than the way I was treated, was it the Code of Conduct? Excerpts:
Please be kind and courteous. There’s no need to be mean or rude.
Respect that people have differences of opinion and that every design or implementation choice carries a trade-off and numerous costs. There is seldom a right answer.
I think I was kind with the people I disagreed with, even if they could not be in return, yet those comments (some including ableist slurs) remain. I think this is enough to demonstrate it is merely a difference in ideology which motivated the ban. Well, bans, because it seems they copied and pasted the same ban in all the communities they have access to:
It’s not a general lemmy.ml ban, just those in particular.
I understand this kind of behavior in safe space communities that don’t want outsiders bellyaching about the pragmatism of electoral politics, but that’s not the case in any of the communities I’ve been banned from, nor is it a part of the instance rules or CoC.
PTB or triggered shitlib? Not an exclusive or, of course.
the irony of right-wing liberal scum calling a leftist a shitlib.
No leftist would dehumanize marginalized groups like you, I actually care about things being better for people.
says the person who argued the dems were better because their genocide was nicer. sure, you care about people, when black history month or pride month comes around and you want to earn brownie points on twitter. too bad all that theatrical posturing doesn’t make you a good person.
strawman. projecting again? who can tell. well I can for sure tell that you’re desperate for someone to tell you you’re a good person
I mean I’m the one here actually advocating for things that would make black and queer lives better, that’s more than you can say. How sad, you’re out-done by a pathetic little shitlib.
somebody heard a term online and think using it makes them look smart. just because something is a fallacy, doesn’t make it a bad argument. like, when I say your opinion isn’t worth considering because you’re a fascist piece of shit, that’s an ad hominem. it’s also the fucking truth, because the only good nazi is a dead one.
Sorry, but the shoe fits. Not gonna waste my time explaining how I’ve been misrepresented when I can just signal “that’s not what I said” instead.
