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

    There are no racists or nazis within my community, I moderate very strictly. And you’re comfortable hanging out with Tankies, you’re even one yourself. So don’t lecture me about bars when you’ve bought the tankie bar drinks.

    perhaps you should fall for another fake post and then have to backtrack?

      I would like to introduce you to the concept of satire. Two examples of making fun of the contrived and ominous-sounding name your crew came up with.

      Also in my defense the post about you sending hairy asshole pics to harass people was extremely funny and fits with the character you put forward online.

      I moderate very strictly.

      lmao

            i really don’t care what it’s called. Are you not mad that you’re being called a tankie?

              I’m an anarchist, I really don’t care what centrist extremists decide to call me though.

                If you are an anarchist, which I personally doubt, why do you call yourself a tankie?

                  you are being intentionally obtuse, I’m making fun of the labels that you apply to anyone you disagree with

                    Seven months ago, which is when the screenshot was posted, I never called you a tankie. And why would you even call yourself a tankie even as a joke? That’s like calling yourself a Nazi as a joke.
