So I made a comment on worldnews criticizing Chinese activity in the south china sea and apparently got banned for it by the automod. This happen to anyone else? Is this Lemmy’s version of the need help post and the shape of things to come?
The instance I posted in was Lemmy.ml
It’s a bit extreme to block the entirety of Lemmy.ml, no?
This is what OP was banned for. It’s not just the world news community, the admins police wrongthink across the entire instance.
And the Streisand effect has carried those words to people who would have never seen them.
Hope you’re reading this .ml!
I wonder what the listed offence was, because what OP stated in the comment is absolutely true. Did they conveniently forget the 9-dash line? China is absolutely laying claim to waters that have already been declared to belong to the Philippines.
OP said the offense was “yellow peril”
What a BS reason
Yeah that’s pretty bad.
to join lemmy.ml you need to copy and paste a paragraph from a communist text, so, no
? Since when. I used to have an account there months ago when I migrated from reddit. I don’t think I would have missed that at the time
Yeah I had an account there too and I set it up like every other account. Found out later on that ml was Marxist Lennin so I setup shop at lemm.ee instead
I never knew whether that was true, I just drifted away from it. .ml just means it is on a domain designated for Mali, but they could have explicitly chosen that domain to use it for another purpose.
Damn, I guess looking back, the .ml wasn’t about Mali lol
This is blatantly not true. To sign up for lemmy.ml, you have to provide an email, name, and a couple sentences of why you’re joining. You should stop inventing false statements and spewing them on the internet. It’s not good for anyone. In fact, it makes everyone who dislikes lemmy.ml look like idiots.
It is they who are extreme.
Not at all. There’s nothing good that has .ml at the end of it here. You’re missing nothing.
I don’t miss anything there other than the Firefox community.
No
