Wonder why all recent posts are so downvoted?
Oh I know why they are all downvoted. Because many people on Lemmy identify themselves by their politics and since I'm not Democrat, they follow me around and downvote everything.
I'm used to it and it doesn't bother me. Just sad for them.
Huh?
Yeah, he kinda proved my point, didn't he? I posted an article about calisthenics in this calisthenics community. And the guy comes in here and talks about politics and calls me an idiot. LMAO
For some people on Lemmy, they make politics their identity. And if ya happen to disagree with them, they remember, follow ya around and just keep calling you names. Regardless of what community you're in.
Some people take Lemmy way too seriously. As the guy's posts show.
I'm just as confused about it as you are. It's strange.
Yeah? How so? Because I didn't vote the way you do? Nice namecalling...
Dude, this is a calisthenics community. I posted a calisthenics article. But because you're mad about me not voting the same way as you MONTHS ago, ya came to this calisthenics community, decided to talk politics and call me names.
That says WAY more about you, than it does me.
One of the rules of this community, which you have broken: Kindly be empathetic and kind to others.
I don't "design" anything. I post links to news articles. If you don't like them, don't read them. It's that simple. I also haven't called you names.
Not everyone thinks the same as you do when it comes to politics. That's also why we have a president that you don't like. Lots of people disagreed with you. Get over it.
That has nothing to do with me, or calisthenics.
The fact that you can't move on, or refrain from calling pepole names, shows just how sad your life is.
You went on a political rant in a freakin' calisthenics community! LMAO
I'll keep posting wherever I want to, not matter how mad you are about a president you didn't vote for. None of that was my fault.
Name calling again. Breaking the rules of this community again. Ignoring that this is a calisthentics community again.
Reported for trolling.
Temp ban for repeated name calling. Please take time and reflect. You're welcome to come back to the community after temp ban as long as the discussion stays focused on fitness.
?
I'm not a monk or religious at all. I haven't posted any religious news articles, so I have no idea why you would think I'm religious. You seem to be confused about where you are. Calisthenics is a body workout. It has nothing to do with religion.
You broke multiple rules for this community and you brought politics (and now religion) into it, even tho this community is just about calisthenics. There's just no reason for you to bring your politics to this non-political, non-religious community.
I don't know if it counts as universal, since I don't think Lemmy is quite that serious of a platform just yet, but people should follow the rules the communities they're in.
And one of the rules here is: Kindly be empathetic and kind to others. Trolling and spamming will not be tolerated. Making the community a friendly & supportive place is our goal. All of us are here for a short lifetime. Hope u have a nice time here :)
Which is a great rule!
But thanks for your support and hopefully everyone can stay on topic now.
I don't what that means, but thank you, I guess. :)
No, you didn't see that at all. You saw me saving a dead community and bringing it back to life, while making sure that the existing community guidelines are being followed.
This is a great instance, with great admins, and I took over this unmodded community so that it could live up to the standards that the rest of the instance has.
The temp-banned poster brought politics and name-calling into a fitness community that is non-political. The poster repeatedly broke the rules. Hopefully they can take the time to reflect and calm down.
For proof of what they said, the modlog is public.
Moving foward, please keep comments in line with a fitness focus. Off-topic posts will be removed.
Thanks for your support and let's keep Lemmy awesome!
I donβt engage in political targeting though, and I donβt support that kind of behavior either.
This is a fitness-focused community, and politics donβt belong here. Regardless of usernames, personal beliefs, or what other communities users post in.
If some users feel the need to bring political grudges into this space, that reflects more on them than anyone else.
Iβm here to contribute positively and stay focused on fitness. Letβs keep this community respectful and on-topic.
Thanks for your support and feel free to add your own posts to this community if you want to.
Not sure why you are talking about Nazi stuff in a fitness community. That seems...weird. Please keep topics to fitness. Thank you!
I don't have to think on it. This is a fitness community. Please stay on topic. Thank you!
Again, please follow Rule 1: Kindly be empathetic and kind to others. Trolling and spamming will not be tolerated.
Please take a day off and think about your negativity. You're welcome back here as long as your posts stay fitness focused. Thank you!
