The first 6-12 months here (during/right after the Reddit API drama) were great. After that....not so much.

.world, from what I’ve seen, basically says “don’t be a dick or deny atrocities, which leads us back to point 1. Also no piracy.” .ml says “avoid criticizing Russia, china, North Korea, communism, communist figures, or cursing at our special little gremlins who will spew vileness at you entirely unprompted. But also don’t be a dick or deny atrocities, unless doing so interferes with any of the previously stated rules.”

I can’t see how you’d have a grievance with both, unless you’re moving politically rightward. Which I have strong opinions about.

If only! To be pedantic though, what Lemmy.ml actually says is:

A community of privacy and FOSS enthusiasts, run by Lemmy’s developers

and

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

Which (somehow?🤷‍♂️🤪) translates to what you said, except... no wait, it does not? Hence it says one thing (my quotes) while doing exactly the opposite (your quotes), in point of fact.

On the other hand, there's the "trust me bro, i iz total1y relaibles" defense, otherwise known as "nuh-uh, I know you are but what am I?"

Because while it is human nature to be wrong sometimes, it might be best not to actively wallow in it? (See also: Hexbear, Lemmygrad.ml, and some smaller ones such as midwest.social)

Well I got an instant no-warning permaban from lemmy.ml

I think it was for a post in which I basically said there won't be peace in the Middle East until there's a lot less religion in the area.

I dunno, you never know who has an easily offended Sky Daddy LOL

Don't give them any attention, they're just attempting to manufacture consent for .ml is all.

They can say they only ban for whatever reason, but then just ban for whatever they like to. Just don't disagree with them, or say something they don't like and you'll be fine. Yeah. I've got major issues with that.

I’ve never had an issue with mods or admins outside of .ml, personally. And that’s while overtly being a dick. I can’t comprehend placing .world and .ml in the same sentence.

I must have pissed in an admin's Wheaties in their favorite community.

Having looked through your modlog, it seems like you had a bit of trouble adjusting to the only newly broadly accepted ways that men and women can characterize themselves. It’s an adjustment, to be sure. Particularly without context.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Mine is a fairly broadly held opinion in the general public. Not well represented in niche online spaces though.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I dunno, man. People just want to feel safe and accepted and it costs little to adjust

[–] [email protected] 0 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Cool, so why don't you adjust to me instead? It's just as easy right?

But to whose benefit? Not yours or mine, as far as I can tell. You’re already comfortable, and so am I. The worst you’re going to get is this soft handed diatribe about inclusion
