The power trip / ban doesn’t bother me, but the misinformation does. They present as leftist, but flare up around US elections discouraging voter turnout via ‘bOtH siDeS’ garbage. that only ever elevates shit like MAGA.

In the linked thread, OP promotes rioting while discouraging voter turnout. My comments agreed with activism like riots, but pointed out that it’s not an either-or thing. You can riot -and- vote; and even if you don’t have it in you to riot, still do vote.

Banned.

You can see my removed comment quoted in the post after mine.

This ‘blue MAGA’ tankie shit is somehow worse than the loud-and-clear MAGA shit over on Reddit - at least those neonazis were honest about who they were.

Anywho, YSK. Spaces like r/conservative were clearly labeled and easy to avoid; LateStageCapitalism@lemmy.world presents as a cause worth rallying around, but only until you peel up the veneer and see that they’re the same fucking thing.

Also please vote. In addition to whatever flavor of activism tickles your fancy.

    I got banned for violating rule 4 (no “lessor evil rhetoric”) despite specifically writing a comment not to include “lessor evil” rhetoric and then having the audacity to call out the mod to show where I broke rule 4 in my comment.

    Fuck those guys. I was very motivated to report the channel, but I’m not 100% sure that I’m not just being a butthurt little bitch, gonna give it a few days to simmer, and to see if other people continue to have issues with their moderation. Still though, feels good to get a ban badge from them.

      lessor evil

      Lol. That moron mod doesn’t even know how to spell “lesser”.

      Yeah, I thought about posting on here after that idiot banned me, but didn’t feel like it was worth the effort. But at this point I’ve seen multiple others complaining about that fool and his sub so I’m glad they’re taking the time to post about it.
