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
goat loves to lie, it’s like their primary method of engagement
And then say us documenting their actions (that they then go back and edit) are the real liars.
Screenshot Goat, they’ll remove their posts to make you seem like you lied.
it’s that or straight up gaslighting. When I called out the widespread use of ‘degenerate’ on meanwhile on grad being used to dehumanize whatever ‘tankies’ that they were sneering at, I provided 3 examples of different users doing that; one of those users in a direct reply to goat.
none of the posts in question got removed
goat has since said that ‘oh it was only one user’ - never mind that it was only the most egregious user out of all the examples I happened to provide (not an exhaustive list).
But he got banned for a week after months is dog whistles! That’s totally being fair! Just accept months of insults and dehumanizing.
Also what dehumanizing language have we used on him? I’d love to see the full context.
I linked the post; according to goat ‘a lot’ of context is coming soon™
From the context that exists it sounds like the dehumanizing language is calling them fascists? I would love to have them elaborate so it can be addressed rather than vaguely gesturing.
