And for the record, there was nothing even remotely racist in my comment. Dessalines just can't accept being wrong. ๐คท๐ปโโ๏ธ
UPDATE : I am (almost) sad to report the ban only extends to [email protected] !
Also, I found the original comment, here it is (and if you see what's racist about it, please tell me, I'm open to being wrong about this, although I really doubt it) :
( Update 2 : cropped the second image properly )
"Oh, this is calamity! Calamity! Oh no, he's on the floor!"
Welcome to MoG!
Meanwhile On Grad
Documenting hate speech, conspiracy theories, apologia/revisionism, and general tankie behaviour across the fediverse. Memes are welcome!
What is a Tankie?
(caution of biased source)
Basic Rules:
Sh.itjust.works Instance rules apply! If you are from other instances, please be mindful of the rules. โ Basically, don't be a dick.
Hate-Speech โ You should be familiar with this one already; practically all instances have the same rules on hate speech.
Apologia โ (Using the Modern terminology for Apologia) No Defending, Denying, Justifying, Bolstering, or Differentiating authoritarian acts or endeavours, whether be a Pro-CCP viewpoint, Stalinism, Islamic Terrorism or any variation of Tankie Ideology.
Revisionism โ No downplaying or denying atrocities past and present. Calling Tankies shills, foreign/federal agents, or bots also falls under this rule. Extremists exist. They are real. Do not call them shills or fake users as it handwaves their extremism.
Tankies can explain their views but may be criticised or attacked for them. Any slight infraction on the rules above will immediately earn a warning and possibly a ban.
Off-topic Discussion โ Do not discuss unrelated topics to the point of derailing the thread. Stay focused on the direct content of the post as opposed to arguing.
You'll be warned if you're violating the instance and community rules. Continuing poor behaviour after being warned will result in a ban or removal of your comments. Bans typically only last 24 hours, but each subsequent infraction will double the amount. Depending on the content, the ban time may be increased. You may request an unban at any time.
Ahh yeah they call the pooh comparison racist since pooh is yellow
That would be a very bad faith interpretation (so it's probably it), I said that because comparing Xi Jin Ping to Winnie the Pooh is a thing his Chinese opponents do to make fun of him, because he kinda does look like him.
I've been banned from grad and ml for telling them to "stop throating authoritarian cocks" and the reason was "homophobia."
Which is bigoted on their end to assume the gender of the person throating the cock. Also what is a metaphor?
There's a bit of a bad faith feedback loop where they started using it as a litmus test for users who are just trying to provoke instance bans, etc. At this point Rule 1 is pretty all encompassing to oblige those users. But it's very easy to catch strays. In some of those communities it's like those classroom lists of banned Gen Z words that get posted around.
