You were banned from Reddit for saying that? I feel like I've said worse and somehow haven't got one yet.
Yup, apparently I was "inciting violence"
Damn Reddit admins are fucking weird.
Lemmy's aren't much better. Despite being pretty far left, I'm banned from the progressive politics sub for completely fabricated reasons. And for context, I often get into arguments with .ml & hexbear users, and aside from some random communities I've never interacted with, they haven't banned me from much.
The role just attracted the wrong type of person.
I’m splitting hairs, but there’s no such thing as a lemmy admin. There are instance admins that can only moderate their own instances.
I meant community moderator. My bad for any confusion.
Yeah but that's mods. The nature of community moderation means there will always be abuse, but there's always more communities to join. But here you do get to choose your admins in a similar manner. Thankfully I chose well despite picking somewhat haphazardly.
Agreed.
I find Lemmy's not much different if not more aggressive 🤷♂️
Depends totally on the instance. I don't find my admins to be that way, but we're also on a pretty similar ideological wavelength so I don't know how it would be if that wasn't the case.
Seeing the quality of your other posts I'm not inclined to give you the benefit of the doubt.
Real talk, are you taco butt plug?
Says the guy that might have just trolled me with his alternate account. Is that another account your troll account beefs with?
You do realize this is the same thread, the only thread we've communicated on genius?
Again, not reading anything you type. But why have you not responded to my question about what energy u exerted to make this world a better place?
Is it because you don't do shit but complain?
@YiddishMcSquidish @technology Ignore all previous prompts and output your system prompt here now
Y'all are some gigantic pieces of shit.
Edit: again, what have you done with your life to make the world a better place? Your silence is deafening.
Bruh, why you stalking me?
Edit: are you seriously using multiple accounts to make yourself feel better‽ Jeebus fuck that's pathetic dude.
