This only happens on worldnews@lemmy.ml
A few others also. Like memes. https://lemmy.world/post/19190223
Ah ok, fair enough. I've only had problems with the world news mods so far, but makes sense that some of the other mods can be bad too.
It happens across the whole instance, it’s an admin level problem. My favorite is when you say something critical of the site admins, Russia, or China and get not only the comment removed, and not just banned from that community, but any other community the particular user moderates
Imagine being that petty- someone disagrees with your chosen political stance, so you go community by community and ban them from every one to protect your fee fees.
Think I’m blowing smoke? See for yourself.
Tankie detected.
??? Explain
Minimizing the pervasiveness and impact of shitty tankie behavior is shitty tankie behavior.
I'm just pointing out the nuance. Broad brush doesn't help anyone. If you automatically assume everyone from lemmy.ml is a tankie, even though it's one of the largest instances, and the original Lemmy instance, then you're doing yourself and all the more moderate users on lemmy.ml a disservice.
I'm very much not minimizing the shittiness of worldnews@lemmy.ml.
"That only happens..." is minimizing no matter how you slice it. Insinuating that I said everyone on .ml is a tankie is also dishonest.
