Banned for being: Too White, opposing Russian imperialism, using the word ‘authoritarian’, not praising the CCP, saying war criminals should be punished regardless of nation.
Capital offenses in tankieville, it would seem.
Slowly they will fade away. There are a lot of alternatives that are much more friendly and not, you know, tankie.
“Cunt” is misogynist
Mod has clearly never met an Australian
That modlog is a pretty hilarious read
Lmao at calling anti CCP “yellow peril”
Meanwhile “Capital W white behavior.”
Which, to pick just one failure of consistency, is not capitalized.
Hey, that’s me!
Nice.
Psh, you dirty anti-communist!
Well actually, here’s 27 links to sketchy sources and propaganda. No I won’t make any actual argument
And if you don’t read every bit of those 27 links and make a detailed response to each and every point they make, then I’ll smugly dismiss everything you say regardless of its validity because clearly you’re not here for REAL discussion. Oh, and throw in a few personal attacks and/or memes for good measure.
Hello, I am a third random user wondering what the original comment was, because the .ml admin in the thread deleted all the other comments
“Oh, China isn’t perfect? Hmm, have you considered outrageously biased news source ‘the Grayzone’ disagrees?”
OFF THE WALL ANTICUMMUNISM
Doing a kickflip “no state should own the means of production.”
Just got banned and finally decided to block this community. They clearly don’t want to believe their precious Russian shock troopers can commit war crimes and are disgusted when the Ukrainians do it back to them.
It took me about a month to ban ml and hexbear.
I was able, as an anarchist, to joke along with their memes, up to the point I mentioned Taiwanese elections.
Whooo boy, big mistake.
Like yes, capitalism bad, but China also bad? List a bunch of reasons why. Nope, those are all insane propoganda, despite me personally knowing people who’ve fairly recently fled Hong Kong, and its not because theyre fucking Kulaks or something, they are working class.
Much like QAnoners, they live in an alternate reality bubble, which can be fairly easily shown to them and then they just pull a bunch of absolute bullshit out of their asses, dubious claims with no sources which often strain basic logic given an even cursory knowledge of world or regional history.
Lemmy.ml is the new hexbear.
Lemmy.ml’s moderation has always been like this, unfortunately.
So this is how I find out I was banned for “anticommunist rhetoric”.
I will wear this as a badge of honour.
Good day fellow anti communist!

“banned for being too white”
Where’s the image of the white person from family guy wearing the “King of the Black people” ribbon? Because that’s what might be happening here
First time interacting with “totally real leftists”?
Totally real lefties breathlessly defending every action from totally actual leftist North Korea.
“You said the word cunt. Banned for a month for misogyny.”
If only there were a word for countries or other power structures that halfheartedly look for reasons to throw people who say things they don’t like in jail
This is a sad but hilarious read at the same time. Ml just digging their own grave to irrelevance. Also, what banning argument is “horseshoe theory”. They say it like its a completely invalid disgusting thing. They might just not wanna be associated with the right but the autocratic tendencies are the same!
