Remembering to look for and ignore folks with that telltale indicator has made the fediverse so much more enjoyable.

My .ml experience:

  • Have a different opinion
  • Get banned for rule 2
  • See what rule 2 is
  • Respect other opinions

    I'm pretty sure I'm banned from .ml.

    Badge of honour.

    Yep. They’re afraid factual reality might infect their little flock of frightened chicks so they inoculate the entire hen house with “Rule 1” bullshit. Meanwhile, they have no problem allowing vitriol and hatred to spew from their own loyalist goons. And those goons are able to take advantage of the free speech that all the other instances practice because they know that lemmy admins are flaccid an ineffective tools.

    .ml needs to be defederated. Let them cry about it in their own little echo chamber.

    "evidence"

    A 150 page conspiracy theory ain't a prove. Also defending Israels crimes against humanity is not the same as advocating for a reasonable solution.

    "Conspiracy theory" for libs is anything that deviates from western state propaganda.

    To paraphrase Michael Parenti: teachers and farmers, when they unionize they meet in rooms, and discuss their interests, goals, their plans and their actions to reach these goals, what propaganda they need to create, this is obvious to everyone. But when I suggest that the rich and powerful do the same, they call me a conspiracy theorist.

    See how Zionists don’t get banned despite defending an ongoing genocide

    Are they really Zionists, though? I've been accused multiple times (twice yesterday and once today) of allegedly supporting genocide. I can actually point out people in the comments here crying Nazi at everyone they disagree with.

    This whole "you genocide sympathiser!" shit is getting old. It's cheap mud-slinging without basis.

    To .ml users, being for a two state solution or even a one state Bosnia and Herzegovina type solution, while acknowledging that there is a genocide against Palestinians going on, still makes you a Zionist. Even being non-Zionist stills makes you a Zionist in the eyes of a .ml user.
