I get that some communities want to curate their content and contributors, but pre-emptive bans and such aren't going to be an effective method. It's usually net counter-productive, as we see playing out here.

Most people won't understand, care, or even notice. The few that do tend to take it as a provocation than a lesson, anyway.

YDI - Why do you care if you're banned in a comm you never post in? The only reason to care is because you want to start drama.

You're an anti-communist and you got banned from a communist instance. Aren't you happy you're away from the tankies now? Proud you've proven their authoritarian nature?

YDI.

You've equated communists to Nazis and said "tankie fucks deserve to get their heads bashed in." Extremely aggressive 100% of the time whenever you encounter a Marxist of any sort. With that context, it isn't unreasonable to ban you when it would already be a clear misfit for you to participate in a Marxist community, be it via voting or otherwise. It wasn't an instance ban, you're still free to comment on the socialist comm, anarchist comm, etc as far as I can tell, just not on the communist comm.

As for the bit on antisemitism, the comment was removed and all you said was "fuck off," so myself and presumably others made rash assumptions. This isn't ill-founded though, you had posted Nazi apologia for Nazi collaborators released from prison that went on to lynch Jewish people and communists on the very same thread simply because they opposed the soviets. This is well and truly beyond the standard left-punching the post was for. I feel that this context is necessary because your post directly calls my reputation into question in the post body.

Getting banned from communities you don't even post on, Lemmy really is a full featured Reddit replacement.

PTB, it was probably because you keep triggering them in /c/leftymemes. Also lol at the hexbears in here calling YDI because their feelings are constantly being hurt.

EDIT: Omegalul at all the salt below.

Amazing display of left unity today by Hexbear.

We can't call out bad faith actions and active spamming to tire people out, but they will gladly jump down your throat.

They can ban people for asking too many questions but if we ban them we aren't leftists.

You call them out it's a tirade and a rant. You give them links to show they have a bias, you're the bad guy.

Rules for thee not for me is what Stalin wanted after all, it's just praxis for them. Can't wait to see how many are angry at us for not obeying their rules on another instance.

Blah blah "but muh all" blah blah "post hog" blah blah "you just hate us for causing a mess and cleaning it up". Hope you guys have jobs and interact with real humans and stop LARPing as the revolutionaries Stalin would have shot when they stopped being useful.

Amazing how to some we're the Tankies when we didn't say Stalin wasnt Christ reborn and we get spammed with it. I come back from work and I have more messages than when I upset someone with a bot farm.

Left unity my ass. We can't criticize you but you'll kill Makhno and say you did us a favor. Can't wait until Hexbear circlejerks about this and swear this time for real they'll defed from us.
