Comment on The lemmy.ml Problem
Roflmasterbigpimp@lemmy.world 5 months agoPardon me but have you read the Post i linked? He talked about politics, granted, but banning him from non-political Communities (in fact, ALL Communities) is completely out of proportion. And that is just for reciting established facts!

Yes I have, which is why I’m asking. While I agree that the admin response was totally out of all proportion, this is not evidence of either of the things you claimed. What happened there was that OP challenged the pro-CCP version of events in a political discussion and got banned from the entire instance.
If you’re going to justify defederation based on non-political communities being policed and injected with propaganda, you need to provide some concrete examples of that happening.

First and for most my main reason for defederation is that they straight up lie and mislead.
If you demand prove I will unblock ml again and will try to find it.

I’ve seen it in the obvious communities like worldnews@lemmy.ml, sure. But in non-political ones? Not once.

Here are three posts from the memes-community. They got downvoted to oblivion (from the Users) and contain false information, but were not removed or anything from the moderators or admins.
Here is a Comment from someone who tells about his own experience in communist Hungary. His Comment got removed for violating rule 1 “Be civil and nice.”. Why does this comment of his own experience get removed for being not nice, but posts which contain propaganda and clearly insult people in an non-political Community like Memes did not?

This Comment ( even though I disagree with its content) got removed for “Bourgeois Bootlicking” despite having Rule 2 in place, which states: “Be respectful, especially when disagreeing. Everyone should feel welcome here.” His Comment was as, if you ask me, maybe not totally polite but still acceptable.
