Nice speedrun strat.
/straightens tie
Thank you
Just don't contribute to their communities. There is another privacy community that's more discuss permissive
That's a good point. I appreciate it.
[email protected] is a good one :)
thats why you block the triad of extremism, lemmyml, hexbear, and lemmygrad. these people are delusional to think russia and china are actually on the left, they are more to the right than anything.
They aren't left or right, just straight authoritarian. Policies only serve to saciate the masses and maintain control.
The terms left and right are terrible terms anyway. They do away with so much nuance.
Do you mean the Privacy community on lemmy.ml?
I got temporarily banned there after criticizing the Russian invasion of Ukraine, and a moderator proceeded to remove most of my comments from the thread. Only the ones with >0 upvotes, interestingly. I give the ML mods brownie points for technique, at least.
(Regarding if "off topic" is PTB: I'm not sure if AI generation specifically regarding Tianmen square is on-topic for privacy, but I imagine it would be at home in communities discussing technology, AI, even free speech. But let's be fair, it's definitely pretense for an unwarranted instance-wide ban. Far more PTB than BPR.)
Yeah, both ml comms.
You're losing me with the abbreviations though.
You'll find most of those in the sidebar (except AI, but I figure you're good with that one)
Browsing on app, this gives what?
Some acronyms you might see.
-
PTB - Power-Tripping Bastard: The commenter agrees with you this was a PTB mod.
-
YDI - You Deserved It: The commenter thinks you deserved that mod action.
-
YDM new - You Deserved More: The commenter thinks you got off too lightly.
-
BPR - Bait-Provoked Reaction: That mod probably overreacted in charged situation, or due to being baited.
-
CLM - Clueless Mod: The mod probably just doesn’t understand how their software works.
I posted this is Privacy, and News.ml.
Well, there’s your problem right there.
Unfortunatly it's the instance with the most vocal about the genocide in palestine. Their video communiry allow political videos unlime lemmy.world one which consider human right activism as political
They literally practice anti-freedom of speech. Just because they're anti Palestine genocide it doesn't make them good guys.
That's like saying "oh but hexbear is gay inclusive" when in reality they're a toxic cesspool of hate.
I am not saying that they are good guys. Jus that i follow palestinian news on some of the communities on ml
Check out Lemmy.ca.
We are (mostly) a more tolerant and progressive people on most issues.
I can't even post stuff on the community
I tried to redirect my cross-posting stream there, but it's locked to mods only
There is more posts in one day on ML Palestine sub than a whole month in .ca
Not anymore there won't be, especially since now I have to redirect my work there because the actual second biggest c/palestine comm is [email protected] on ee sad lol
Redirect to lemmy.ca?
It's locked to moderators lmao ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
If the mod doesn't want to unlock for whatever reason, there's also [email protected] that can be built up
And the way to change that is.....
Maybe start allowing others to post

This is a community in the spirit of "Am I The Asshole" where people can post their own bans from lemmy or reddit or whatever and get some feedback from others whether the ban was justified or not.
Sometimes one just wants to be able to challenge the arguments some mod made and this could be the place for that.
Posting Guidelines
All posts should follow this basic structure:
- Which mods/admins were being Power Tripping Bastards?
- What sanction did they impose (e.g. community ban, instance ban, removed comment)?
- Provide a screenshot of the relevant modlog entry (don’t de-obfuscate mod names).
- Provide a screenshot and explanation of the cause of the sanction (e.g. the post/comment that was removed, or got you banned).
- Explain why you think its unfair and how you would like the situation to be remedied.
Rules
- Post only about bans or other sanctions that you have received from a mod or admin.
- Don’t use private communications to prove your point. We can’t verify them and they can be faked easily.
- Don’t deobfuscate mod names from the modlog with admin powers.
- Don’t harass mods or brigade comms. Don’t word your posts in a way that would trigger such harassment and brigades.
- Do not downvote posts if you think they deserved it. Use the comment votes (see below) for that.
- You can post about power trippin’ in any social media, not just lemmy. Feel free to post about reddit or a forum etc.
- If you are the accused PTB, while you are welcome to respond, please do so within the relevant post.
Expect to receive feedback about your posts, they might even be negative.
Make sure you follow this instance's code of conduct. In other words we won't allow bellyaching about being sanctioned for hate speech or bigotry.
