I agree. I've edited my statement based on thinking about the points you brought up.

What in the actual fuck is going on with people now?

~~Looks like piefed.social wants to be the new lemmy.world. lmao.~~ EDIT: Ok, so it's not that bad!

I was banned from piefed.social because I'm "Universal Monk," but they let a chucklefuck bro like this guy on there?! Da fuq?! lmao

I immediately felt compelled to go to the dude's community and say, 'Bro.' Then, just as quickly, I realized I don't give enough shits about the guy, the community, the instances, or even the entire fediverse, to do that.

PTB!

Even after the admins said they were looking into it because of other complaints as well. SMH

Was he banned or even asked to take a break for those 3 days, or was it just because he was busy or something? Did they take any action against him?

You all are just making up shit to be mad about now. Bro, if ya call people negative names, good chance you get banned. From lots of communities. How about you just make your point without name calling?

Try calling your boss a pussy. Then try telling that boss that you don't see it as a bad word. See what happens.

I'm not against calling people names. In fact, I love calling people pussies when I get pissed off. But I wouldn't fall over in shock if some mod removed me for it. And I wouldn't look into the history of the insult and try to find out why it's not insulting. Language use is fluid. Lots of things are insults for weird reasons.

Now you're using this community to try to redefine insult words?!

YDI

None of the other mods in the community have those badges in their profile though.

[–] UniversalMonk@anarchist.nexus 3 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Yeah, totally weird how that all went down.

[–] UniversalMonk@anarchist.nexus 5 points 2 months ago

Yeah, it's sorta extra that he has "community moderator" badges on there. Does he wear them as patches on his jackets too? lol

  • Specifically, with the MBFC bot, yeah, I thought, and still think, it's a good idea.

Ewww. You really need to just step away from modding, and just be a normal Lemmy poster. You're in too deep.

  • FWIW the most coherent theory I ever heard for all the MBFC insanity was that someone had a sponsorship deal with Ground News and they were getting paid some tiny amount of money because of the Ground News link that the bot inserted into its comments.

I 100 percent believe this is the scenairo. I always have believed it.

I haven’t strayed from my logic at all. I’ve always posted news from all political angles. I’ve never hidden that, and it’s easy to see. You’ll find recent articles I’ve shared from conservative outlets, independent sources, Green Party platforms, and more.

But here’s the key point: the overwhelming majority of my posts, my voter registration, my voting history, and my volunteer work are all Socialist. Plus, and this is what you should respect, I openly identify as a Socialist.

So people labeling me as conservative is simply inaccurate.

I know you’re careful not to outright call me conservative, but whenever I correct someone who does, you’re quick to say, “but you posted this…” and point to conservative articles links that I've posted.

What you never mention are the third-party articles I've posted. Specifically all the Socialist articles I’ve posted, or the Socialist communities I’ve created and supported. Or the Socialist pieces that I've actually written myself. I've been published in print in my local Socialist newspaper under my actual "real life" name!

Despite all the nonsense people on Lemmy say about me, and yes I believe you have helped stir some of it by your selective curation of my stuff, I have stayed what I have always been: a proud Socialist.

Hey, maybe they'll unban me if they do that!

Ok, so probably not. lol (I wouldn't want back on world, even if I were allowed to be back. Dbzer0 and anarchist.nexus are my forever homes now.)
