I was just perusing the modlog when I noticed something interesting. Apparently posting news about Gaza/Palestine is not allowed on !worldnews@sh.itjust.works. I decided to check the side bar and didn’t see anything. The only pinned post also does not indicate that this is not allowed
edit: the mod in question is @Eyekaytee@aussie.zone . sorry for not originally tagging. i hadn’t realized it was a rule that this must be done. i thought it seemed inappropriate since i was trying to initiate a conversation about a community’s rules and culture rather than start drama about an individual
My modlog show that i critsized victim blaming the people who got abused by Israel and called to remove victim blaming
It shows you generally being a dick to people you disagree with. One line even said “scums like you should be iced.”
I only insult people defending objectivly undefensible things like victim blaming, not people who simply disagree with me about subjectivd things. People like that are scums and i will not be politically correct about it. The other guy said i should be iced first and i simply repeated his rhetoric
Escalating when someone slights you can certainly have no parallels to current events, no sir.
Prioritizing civility in discussions about a genocide is indefensible
Especially in the high stakes world of Lemmy comment sections.
“It’s just the internet” is a pathetic excuse
…a pathetic excuse for not flinging insults at obvious trolls?
The internet is great for activism. You should try, you know, some focused activism.
A pathetic excuse for prioritizing civility over morality, duh
