Guy defends neo-nazis, gets banned, whines about it.

I never defended them. I just questioned the publicly stated outcome of a report that nobody was supposed to see from a court that is subject to directives from the existing government. Nothing more. Have you ever heard of "question authority"?

EDIT: To add to that: the point is more about the shadowbanning people from one of the largest Mastodon instances for discussing something related to the “wrong” political party in Germany. And even without any opportunity to challenge that ban.

Yeah, this being the context of your abrasive toot in question, it was very much a defense of the original toot, which roughly translates to:

does one automatically become a right-wing extremist just because one is right [about something]? Is a judge a right-wing extremist just because he judges about what is right [law]? Why is a party right-wing extremist it it wants the right thing?

Also, as you post something like this here

I’m all for survival of the fittest. If people are too stupid to stay on the pavement, it’s on them. Why let drivers suffer to protect those idiots that blindly run into traffic?"

and double down on it when challenged, even if the mastodon.social admins may not have seen it, you absolutely deserve to be shadowbanned.

Really sickening to see people saying people deserved to be shadowbanned. Shadowbanning for people that may not know is a concept of rather than suspending an account, which is what normal people do, that you instead let them keep posting & secretly prevent any of their content from being seen. Therefore, the person may end up wasting substantial time continuing to post on a platform so you can laugh at them knowing that you're manipulating the platform to prevent their content from being seen outside of their account.
