I got 2 comments removed and a 1-day ban from lemmy@lemmy.ml (of course it's .ml 🙄) for violating 'rule 2', which doesn't exist, at least not in the sidebar.

I'm willing to consider that 'rule 2' is about discussing .ml, but the second comment was a definition. nutomic@lemmy.ml got his fefes hurt by a dictionary.

Thread in question: https://lemmy.zip/post/62996430

Edit: fucking lol I didn't expect everyone here to be a fucking hypocrite. As I've been told, Rule 2 on .ml is be respectful. Was OP being respectful when they insulted LW? Bunch of backpedalling ignants.

Edit 2: I've now been banned for 'trolling and genocide apologia,' from several dbzer0 communities. First off, wow, what part of me is trolling? Just cause you don't agree with me doesn't make me a troll. Second, at what point did I ever claim genocide is okay? Ironic that YPTB is run by PTBs.

You came into a thread about anti zionism and called ml users sanctimonious.

In that context, redacted

    There was nothing anti-zionist about the post. It was using zionist as an insult/slur against LW, not that I'm fond of LW either, but it's pots and kettles enforcing the idea of 'rules for thee but not for me'.

    lemmy.ml isn't zionist, so it's not "pots and kettles"

    It's pots and kettles when they ban someone for doing the same thing that OP did but to them.

    the same thing that OP did but to them

    they didn't. they called LW a zionist cesspool. that's not being rude, zionists are no different than nazis and nazis deserve nothing short of a bullet. you certainly don't need to be nice to zionists, so any rules about rudeness wouldn't apply to them. the only one breaking a rule here was you.

    YDI.

    Don't you have a LW admin to fight?

    why would I be fighting him? I don't care about LW, I just wanted to call him out for doing yet another shitty thing.

    besides, he's getting a reaming from his own users on his own post, I think they can harass him enough, I don't need to heap more trouble on the pile for him. when he's had enough he can issue a public apology to me and I'll consider accepting.

    It's a slur in the same way that nigga isn't a slur until the R on the end. If you use it to antagonize, it's a slur.

    Post: Wow, this admin just banned a ton of people for being anti-genocide. What a cesspool.

    You: You're a bunch of sanctimonious circlejerkers. Genocide is cool and good, actually.

    Also You: I did not violate any rules! Rule 2 doesn't even exist! It definitely doesn't say, 'don't be an asshole; especially not a contrarian asshole,' and if it did, I didn't break it.

    i-love-not-thinking YDI. YDM. Get banned, nerd.

    At first I thought PTB, after reading further context YDI, this comment was responding to the criticism of Zionism.

    You are calling people are against genocide smug!?

    There are, broadly speaking, plenty of things I disagree with .ml and hexbears on. This sure isn't one of them.

    It used to have rules. I don't know why they was removed. Maybe the rule was civility, i don't know

    Then why was OP allowed to insult the entirety of LW? If we're supposed to be respectful, then why is OP allowed to disrespect LW? I don't even care about LW to be honest. But this hypocrisy is fucking dumb.

    Edit: downvote me if you want, it doesn't make me wrong.

    Lemmy world admins have been continously caught not taking action/ defending nazi/zionist apologia. This wasn't namecalling, and on top of that, your response wasn't questioning why they were being labelled zionist, but to insult the ml community as a whole.

    Just like OP was insulting the LW community as a whole. Yet somehow I'm the bad guy for turning it around to them. Don't throw shade if you're not prepared to catch shade.

    Hypocrites all.

    I just reread the sidebar, and per the first sentence, my comments were not against the rules.

    Everything about Lemmy; bugs, gripes, praises, and advocacy.

    My comments can be considered a gripe, which is explicitly allowed.

    I just reread the sidebar, and per the first sentence, my comments were not against the rules.

    rule 2 specifically states:

    No bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia.

    zionism is bigotry. specifically, it is an ethno-nationalist religious surpemacy colonial movement that believes white Jews are a specific gods chosen people who were promised the earth (gods don't exist and all religions are myths). zionism advocates for the mass murder of anyone who is not zionist. it's one of the most racist and xenophobic ideologies on the planet, no different than nazism. by defending zionists (eww, that's fucking gross you weirdo), you are defending that bigotry and engaging in it yourself.

    you broke the most important rule of lemmy.ml there is. on top of that, zionism is also against the rules of all instances in the FAF, meaning it's against the rules of dbzer0, which is where this post currently resides. the rule banning zionism and defense of it was voted on by all the members, by the way, so don't expect many people here to be sympathetic to your right-wing bullshit.

    Assuming context of your screenshots, they look offensive for them, since they don't like the truth about themselves and their beliefs.
