Or do people think that Lemmy is a neutral, open-minded, safe community? Not like evil Reddit.

EDIT: Talking about mainstream instances like ml or world.

See examples of violent comments towards me and instead of mods removing their comments, they removed mine.

The comment that the all caps person was replying to was me saying that there are non-human targets. Users were assuming I want to kill people and turns out they are the ones that want to kill.

I mean in my case they were just aggressively misreading what I said because they already didn't like me, and specifically added the 'homophobia' tag so that it looks bad in the modlog.

I have plenty of empathy, it's why I found your original statement off-putting.

Your edited part of your comment is probably why you got removed:

it was cool and good that luigi shot that insurance executive; I'd like to see more of that and less military adventurism.

If you're such a good drone pilot maybe start using those skills on insurance executives if you want to impress me.
