You got banned, logged into an alt, said the same thing, got banned again…
And you were so surprised you had to make a post about it?
I got banned from the world news community on lemmy.world because I respectfully and politely disagreed with a moderator. https://lemmy.world/comment/12426224
That’s about right for flyingsquid. Seems like a nice bloke but has repeatedly shown he doesn’t have the impartiality required to be a moderator.
I don’t think he is nice, I think he acts like a mall cop on an ego trip. I had to block him
He’s nice when you agree and most his opinions are decent so you tend to agree a lot. But he tends to start acting weird/hostile when you have a disagreement.
I really appreciate his contributions to lemmy while thinking maybe he isn’t the best person to moderate a political community.
Semi-related, but how do you feel about my moderation? Being impartial is sometimes quite difficult
You didn’t politely disagree. He asked a direct question to which you earlier said to know the answer to.
What you kept repeating was not an answer to said question, and then you started playing stupid games against someone who’s shown time again to have no patience for them.
Imagine you are an expert in software engineering, and imagine I asked you, “How do you build an app?” How would you directly answer that question?
Moreover, if it was obvious to you that the person wasn’t really interested in how to build apps, but they actually doubt it’s possible to build apps at all and they just want to waste your time arguing with you would never get your app approved on the App Store or something like that, how much detail would you be willing to go into about how to build apps? Would you take them through the whole process, start to finish? Would you point them towards resources they could use to learn how to build an app?
I answered the question quite extensively, with explanations and caveats. It should be very clear that while he (and you) may disagree with me, I am not making these arguments in bad faith, I’m not trolling, and I’m not being particularly rude or breaking any rules.
I’m definitely not playing any “games”, I’m just explaining my position the best way I can, but I’m also not trying to waste my time arguing with people who have zero genuine interest in taking what I say seriously.
It was a message I accidentally submitted before I had finished writing, then deleted so that I could continue to write it, but by the time I finished it, I was already banned. It was something along the lines of “I don’t really think you’re arguing in good faith here, because as you said, you “knew” before even starting this conversation that I wouldn’t have any practical ideas”, or something along those lines. If there’s any way to un-delete it I’d be happy to do that, if you know how I can? Or somehow recover the original text?
Edit: Never mind, figured out how to undelete it. Original comment is restored. I accidentally submitted just that fragment instead of a longer message I had intended on replying with.
Based. Get wrecked Zionist troll.
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pinkwashing_(LGBT)
Origin of the term
In April 2010, Queers Undermining Israeli Terrorism (QUIT) in the Bay Area, used the phrase pinkwashing as a twist on greenwashing, a practice where companies claim to be eco-friendly in order to make profit. Dunya Alwan was at a talk with Ali Abunimah, editor of Electronic Intifada in 2010, when he said “We won’t put up with Israel whitewashing or greenwashing” and she thought “or pinkwashing!”
In 2011, Sarah Schulman used the term pinkwashing in a widely read The New York Times editorial arguing that Israel used the tactic in its public relations. Schulman saw pinkwashing as a manifestation of homonationalism, the processes by which some powers selectively agree with the claims of sexual minorities and exploit them to justify racism, xenophobia (rejection of foreign people), and aporophobia (rejection of the poor);
Thanks for the definition. So basically they got banned for “pretending” to support LGBQ? That’s definitely interesting coming from a tankie.
Also, why are you posting to world news@Lemmy.ml? I think we have established that it is not a good community
Because Lemmy.World news communities are ran by Zionists which ban users for criticizing israel.
Just because Israel is using this for propaganda, doesnt mean that it isnt true(or important). The USSR used american racism against black people for propaganda but that doesnt mean that there was no racism in the US or that racism wasnt important(or relevant to the discussion between 2 global powers).
When someone tells you “gay people should be killed”, i think it is relevant to the discussion you have about that person.
Yeah we heard this one in Gaza. The only group people throwing Palestinians off roofs is israel.
Probably in relation to the blue maga name calling. Many of the low intelligence or high self radicalization people rely on as a crutch. Any time someone points out the vitriolic and illogical parts of their rhetoric. Ole Linky seems to be banned from most the communities I visit. Or at least don’t post there anymore. Kinda had forgotten about them honestly. But linky was definitely the one to say things like that.
IDK, hes marked down as the gEnOcIdE/Maga guy (Connect is great for that :-).
Quite annoying anyway, maga or not.
Wikipedia is worth shit-all ever since Tides took them over.
Try some more reputable articles than a propaganda outlet by hedge funds.
To be fair Wikipedia has problems with editors continuously promoting bias or incorrect information.
The thing that makes you a hero is killing a terrorist.
That is a matter of perspective.
If someone kills the leader of a genocidal country, they are a hero to the genocided and a terrorist to the genocidal country. The leader of a genocidal country is a terrorist to the genocided and a hero to the genocidal country.
“America bad therefore all adversaries are good and all adversaries’ actions are good.”
Is resistance to Genocide good? No this is a nuanced complex issue and anyone saying it’s not is an America hater! (Because israel = America right?)
Resistance to genocide is the only moral position. That’s why it is so repugnant that you want more genocide in Gaza, more killing in Ukraine, and pogroms in Ohio.
Resistance to genocide is the only moral position.
Because endorsing Genocide and voting for it is ‘resisting it’. 8K projector in full force.
