Welcome to the Lemmy Drama community!

This is a place to share and enjoy drama across the fediverse. Grab your popcorn, and dive in!

Rules:

1. Don't bring your own drama.


If you are a part of the drama, don't post it here. We're here to enjoy drama, not see it brought to this community.


2. Be civil.


No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.


3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.


Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.


4. No ongoing drama.


if there’s been a comment in the past 3 days, wait until it’s settled down.


5. No interacting with the drama you find here.


That means no upvotes, no downvotes, and no commenting in the original thread.


6. Keep the drama focused on Lemmy and/or the fediverse only.


If it’s Kbin or Mastodon drama, it must be a quality effort post.


7. Don’t piss on the popcorn.


Inciting brigades is an automatic ban.


8. Mod Perogative


We reserve the right to enforce the rules however we like.

Original comment chain

FlyingSquid is a Zionist who actively censors content critical of israel. In the past this was using false claims of anti-semitism but after acquiring mod powers he has started banning anti-israel posters.

After acuiquiring mod powers on /WorldNews FlyingSquid bans me by making up lies about defending the usage of child soldiers which never happened:

Recently he tried to defend himself by lying about it

After being called out for lying FlyingSquid pretends to act in good faith for a little as if he was just confused that day. Let's see what happens when we play along:

When pointed out the he was lying the crybully instantly paints himself as the victim who is "about to be insulted". FlyingSquid is clearly trying to bait an insult to use as an excuse for a reban:

Despite not being insulted, the crybully still claims he was. The Zionist victim complex is a sight to behold. He now demands to be acknowledged for his abuse of mod powers likely hoping to bait an insult:

After failing to ragebait insults the Zionist crybully "changes is his mind" and starts tacking on random extra conditions as an excuse to reban me. He now starts demanding acknowledgement for how amazing he is for falsely banning people.

At this point it is very obvious FlyingSquid has no intentions to unban me from WorldNews and is just trolling:

Subsequently he lies one more time in his ban description.

Edit: JordanLund has joined in and claimed that if you support any action of a group or individual, you fully support every action that group or invidividual has ever committed. Meaning that anyone who supports Joe Biden forgiving Student Loans actually supports the Genocide in Gaza and is a Zionist.

Yeah I'm not a fan of the MBFC bot or censorship. An article about first-hand accounts by some survivors about the school bombing earlier this week was removed because it was Mondoweiss

Although tbh, I think when you insult people, even Zionists, it puts you in a bad light. It's better just to source and debunk.

I've seen both FlyingSquid and Jordanlund advocate for an end to the genocide and Apartheid, I wouldn't call them Zionists. I don't think the ban was deserved, but neither of you were that civil in the DMs

Hamas, Hezbollah, and Houthis have all done terrible things. They're all right wing reactionary resistance armies that formed under violent oppressive foreign intervention such as colonialism, occupation, or blockades. That kind of violence doesn't come out of nowhere, but both need to be solved
