Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Ban log? Where can I look at that? Never been banned anywhere as far as I can tell. Seems you’re making things up. If you’re referring to the Mod log, yeah there are some boneheaded mods removing 3 of my posts/comments for random reasons that — to my view don’t make any actual sense. Even if they did make sense, it’s 3 out of hundreds of comments, so I think I’m doing fine.
What ban log? There is no such thing… there is a mod log. I have not been banned anywhere per the mod log. So, it seems you’re making things up.
Also, when I look up your mod log entries, I actually see more removed comments and posts than myself, so I guess take your own advice?
I saw that too, and decided Lemmy was correct in displaying them as such, and that they were comments linked in some way to your account. I can only assume that is correct, as I do not work with the Lemmy code.
What? You make no sense.
IP Address linking, etc.
Sorry, okay yes.
It's a mod log that has entries in it when you're banned or have comments removed. My bad for using the word ban.
But regardless, the log exists.
And the log says nothing about me being banned or evading bans, so you’re lying.
I'm assuming the filtering is working correctly and Lemmy is showing all the entries that are related to your user id.
If you have an issue with with how the mod log is filtered and displayed to users, I would suggest you go speak with the Lemmy mods.
Go ahead and DM me a screenshot of that entry then cause I don't see it.
I'll do one better. I'll just delete some of my previous comments on the subject, as it's not worth the time of day we are both putting into this.
I'll just assume at this point that Lemmy web mod filtering is problematic, if I'm seeing things in it you're not.
That’s not better, I doubt Lemmy filtering is problematic. I think you filtered incorrectly at first and now can’t reproduce it.
Typing in somebody's name and choosing their name from a list is not rocket science.
Yep, I’ve done that. Nothing about a ban. So why not prove it and send me a DM with what you’re seeing? I don’t see it. Let’s see what you see.
