    i’m banned for a few of Zir communities that as far i know i’ve never interacted with (including at least one that isn’t federated on my server). i’m unbothered by it because they’re not communities i’m interested in. it just struck me as odd.

    so we’re clear @MysticMushroom1776@lemmy.dbzer0.com , this is not an appeal. i don’t have beef. i’ve been noticing of late that i agree with a lot of your interpretations of how things are and how they go. i think your cool, and i just hope you see me as being more than just an anti-ai troll. if you do, i won’t try to change that view. i’ll just continue trying to live in a constructive manner

      I got pre-emptively banned too. I had never even interacted with them lol.

      I don’t care, and actually I defended mods right to do that in a ptb thread about it. I just think it’s rich they’re saying PTB

            i don’t think it’s constructive to call what @MysticMushroom1776@lemmy.dbzer0.com posts slop. you might not like it, and might not be interested in it (i’m i fill both categories) however, slop is ai generated stuff meant to influence political outcomes or to turn a quick buck to garner engagement on platforms with monetization. Ze is doing no such thing. Ze’re interested in exploring the space of generative AI on Zir hardware

                So if you hate the content, hate them, why do you complain about not interacting with them?

                Again, seems like you care a lot. Ze was right in banning someone who has such a tirade that they must interject anytime it remotely comes up.

                  They just want to be able to brigade communities under the guise of “expressing their own opinion”. This is the main reason people complain about being banned from communities they “never intended to interact with”. They fully intend to interact with them, and they’re salty and angry that mods can ban them before they get the opportunity.

                    Every time, without question.

                    It’s the same as when people complain about Blahaj being too strict or unfriendly to cishets/Tankies. They wanted to stir shit, got in a time out, and never second guessed why.
