What irks me the most is the spinelessness of a lot of mods. Shadow banning and banning without an explanation just striffling free speech without acountability. Freedom of expression should not be subject to the whims of individuals!

If this gets me banned than you are worse than spez

      I think its mistake to simply play these folks off as people who want to say racial slurs or something.

        I’m not.

        But I am starting to get the feeling that they, let’s put this gently, do not play well with others. And that subsequently they externalize that experience.

        Since this is a recipe for recidivism (you don’t learn anything if you always think the others are at fault) and eventually you get banned and it ends up being a self fulfilling prophecy.

        I refuse to let Lemmy become the place where people banned from other services go stink up the place.
