Comment on Why was a defederation request post locked deleted and the poster banned?
toasteecup@lemmy.world 8 months agoIt definitely did, but it didn’t seem all that different from similar requests in the past. My experience has been that people will typically either agree or disagree and lay out reasons why.

The OP was saying some really shitty things about people and wishing for the deaths and how they’re not human and shit. I agree with them taking it down.

Nah homie, OP was quoting the things being said by the lemmygrad.ml users with links to the quotes. I’m honestly wondering if the mods may have misread it as you had.

That’s not true. Someone said that they’re not going to listen to someone saying shitty things and they double-downed.

I don’t remember seeing that.
What I do remember seeing was quoted statements with links at the end of the quote to the exact comment.
I’ve already seen one person mistake the quotes for actual statements from the user, could it be this was the situation?:
Op made post with the quotes. Commentor A read the post and mistook the quotes for statements Commentor A response as a normal person would “hey stop saying shitty things” Op responds with more negative quoted statements
It feels weird but I’ve seen people be obstinate for no good reason on Lemmy before.
Lemme know what you think since I missed that comment thread.
Also, looks like the ban was updated to a 24 hour ban with a message “stop the hate speech” which I feel adds weight to my recollection of the situation and theory that OP’s post was misread.
