Posting here for preservation’s sake

Image in removed comment was the attached Palpatine image. Curious to see if the same admin mod would remove these screenshots if I crosspost them to [email protected] , which they also admin and mod. Would I get a fair trial there or will my dissenting and others’ be silenced?

You can’t say you’re against disinfo if you’re knowing and intentionally promulgating it and abetting its usage. They also didn’t even remove the Reddit watermark.

This is why I don’t assign identities unto myself, because you criticize one action done wrong by leaders of an ideology or movement and bam! you’re shut out of it completely. They’ve lost the aid of an ally and progress is impeded by being shorted a participant trying to correct the course.

    Mmm, sorry. I agree in principle, but that was definitely outside of community rules.

    That makes it YDI, even though it seems a permaban was issued. That could matter, because this could have been your first offense, and that’s a heavy handed action with no malice in the comment removed.

    But if it isn’t your first offense, or it was compounded after the fact with comments, messages, or other events that exacerbate the original rule breaking, a permaban could be justified.

    While I understand that the concept of responding to a meme with a meme being rule breaking is one that isn’t exactly clear in those rules, I believe that a reasonable person could tell that the meme used in response is one that is commonly used in a dismissive and/or condescending manner. The subject of the meme image, and the “irony” that meme conveys is not close to the line, it’s a pretty blunt put down.

    Since it’s in meme form as well, it isn’t engaging, it’s just an offhand, smug response. Within the rules of that community, that is absolutely a removable comment.

    I rarely do this, but I disagree with a lot of the established rules of that community, and have it blocked partially because of their specific rules and moderation policies. While that’s off topic for this community, I want to make it clear that I would, on an emotional response level, have preferred this be power tripping. But it just wasn’t.

      Squorlple indeed has a long history of bad faith trolling, and Bad-jacketing. He should consider himself lucky he wasn’t given a permanent instance ban. I certainly would’ve had I been in charge of that descision and I can’t blame other people for having the same opinion. There’s only so much bullshit people can tolerate from someone before it’s clear that they’re 1. Never going to contribute anything in good faith, and 2. Never going to change. It’s why we have permanent bans in the first place.
