Memes.ml mod davel@lemmy.ml, shockingly, did not hold up to infromed disagreement.

(I think I’m on world.ml, I don’t even know, I had no idea how this place worked at the time. Not a tankie, though. Obviously.)

Edit: Holy shit! He be TRIPPIN ON POWA!!! HE’S >9000!!!1!111

Edit II: I’ve been informed that just an instance ban because I point blank called him a coward in his DMs for this bullshit.

    You interacted with one of the always-online .ml trolls who every mod in the fediverse gives a finger shakes and wrist slaps to. And you got baited in to the exact interaction they set out to provoke for their optics project.

    The real PTB is the one here on this comm who keeps scrubbing your comments so that the fediverse broken stair doesn’t become too visible.

    PSA to anyone reading to start reading the modlog for mentions of anyone you’re talking to here, you’re going to get a lot more insight from that than you will from posting on this comm

    You’ve been instance-banned. The multiple comm banning is just how this is seen in the modlog.

    PS:

    This is a problem for everybody. How do we address this?

    Don’t use .ml comms unless you are OK with campist propaganda.

    Wow wtf I literally just read those comments. I thought they were great, so it was only a matter of time until they were deleted. I like how none of them addressed the questions

      THANK YOU! I felt I was being very valid, direct, and educated with what I was beinging to the table! I was 100% not trolling in any way! They simpmydo not homd up to informed criticism. No actual response, only accusations that I’m a supporter of the actions of the U.S. (I’m not.)

      I will say it here again! Tankies know only the status quo! They know only to obey! Rebellion does not exist within them!

      Edit: Notfixing typos. My big thumgs let you know I am all human. No vampires or sharks or “AI” in here! Just a kind of drunk guy.

        If you want to have a thorough, deep discussion with tankies about the Tiannamen massacre, there’s some who will debate with you about it without end. Just be prepared to go for days and dig deep into sources, and don’t try to do it on .ml comms as the tankies there consider all criticism of Chinese politics as “racism”.

    As to your edit, you got a one week site ban for harassment in DMs, which you sent immediately after getting a one week community ban.

    As to the one week community ban, BPR, for being a turbolib spewing every kind of tired nonsense and wasting everyone’s time; nonsense that we’ve responded to thousands of times, day after day, year after year. You didn’t even bring anything novel to the table, only the weakest, most repeated arguments, and a lot of them.

      Well, you gave him a one week community ban because .ml is packed with some of the worst Bad Faith arguments anywhere on the Fedi verse and .ml as a knee jerk reaction never responds well to being challenged.

      Can’t blame you for the site ban though, “eat my ass”? What did he think was gonna happen?

      I wonder why he forgot to mention the harassment in DM and made it look like they got banned from the instance because of the comments. Not suspicious at all.

        Because the point is to be mad at people not letting them troll terribly. Why would they actually admit the reason when they just want to continue the ml bad because they won’t let me troll.

        Was I supposed to be civil after being muzzled? I’ve already established that I’m not a tankie.

          If you think the harassment in DMs was justified (which I disagree with, but whatever), why did you make it look like you got an instance ban because of the comments?

            I clarified my edit. It’s up there. I stand by it. Sometimes you simply call a spade a spade, and a spade I saw, and I stand by that observation.

              Better, but

              I point blank called him a coward in his DMs for this bullshit.

              Doesn’t look like

              Eat my ass, tankie scum

              For which you get the ban.

                That was in response to the propaganda pamphlet robot, and the tankie scum robot can still eat my ass. I got banned for calling him out and I’m well aware of that, the robot was just an excuse. Or are you genuinely arguing that I offended the robot?

                And the fucker accuses me of baiting. HA!

                  I got banned for calling him out

                  You got banned for saying “eat my ass tankie scum” in a DM. This post is calling someone out. Sending a mean DM that just says to eat your ass isn’t calling someone out. You were not banned for calling him out.

                  I mean, you’re calling him a coward, yet you’re trying to whitewash your own behavior in the post. I guess “I got an instance ban because I called him tankie scum in DM” wouldn’t get you as many upvotes?

      And you brought nothing, and now you paint yourself as being suppressed and accuse me of baiting just because you had to defend your own argument and couldn’t. Pathetic. I stand by what I said in your DMs. Your inability to make a solid case for yourself doesn’t make me a troll nor a liberal. Learn to make an argument rather than throw insults, feign oppression, and literally ban people from the conversation in response to others pointing out logical disagreements with your flawed politics on a public forum, for fuck’s sake. Grow some skin.

      Hey, if they’re going to defend it that hard all the time they could at least come up woth a coherent response.

      I don’t agree with the actions of the U.S. by any means, but that wasn’t part of the argument, I wasn’t asking anyone to juxtapose two shitty ideas and only critique one, I was just trying to figure out the internal logic of one specific argument the post was making. Turns out there wasn’t any.

      Edit: I also brought up Taiwan and White Terror.

      From the responses I got, I can see why you would say that, but I was merely asking questions in regards to Tiananmen Square, Taiwan, and the White Terror that don’t add up for me in the face of the argument made by the post that tankies don’t support a hegemonic central authority. Another commenter here even said they thought I was asking good questions. They reacted like I was calling them the r-word for trying to figure how they square that with themselves. Turns out they just don’t even try to square it, they just hide their heads and scream at you to shut up.

      Edit: It wasn’t just Tiananmen Square, either, I also asked about Taiwan and White Terror.

          I wasn’t “just asking questions,” I was transparent with my disagreement, it doesn’t mean I was being antagonistic or wasn’t trying to have a real discussion on the moral and ethical contradictions I clearly outlined were my issues with the argument being put forward by the post in which I replied to. On a public discussion forum, at that. I wasn’t “just asking questions” I was directly questioning. If someone disagreeing with you and trying to further understand that disagreement and how/why you construct the decision process of choosing to have that point of view and internal logic and your response to that type of interaction after a certain point of scrutiny is to scream “shut up! Shut up! Shut up! Shut up!” and say they’re not allowed to play anymore that doesn’t mean that person pissed you off, it means your own internal logic and the reasons why you apply it pissed you off after you had to try to really look at and defend them for what they really are. It means you know you’re wrong.
