I saw this post titled “Scratch a anti-harm reductionist and a fascist bleeds” (https://lemmy.world/post/33320759)

I commented that “harm reduction” apparently means sending billions in weapons to israel while they commit genocide and shutting down campus protests speaking out against that genocide. I said that seemed pretty fascist to me.

Within an instant, they downvoted my post and banned me. Guess it’s my fault for posting in a circlejerk community, but I’m still scratching my head on how that makes me a tankie. Something tells me this mod would be calling in the tanks to suppress any dissent if they could.

      I got into an argument with pug like 3 days ago (over an admittedly hot take of mine, which he screenshotted and shared in the same community)

      In came Phil to play the good cop but ultimately ended up being the exact same type of troll, as I interpreted it then. At least he had the exact same type of antagonistic bad faith interpretation of my words.

      Good to know I’m not the only one to think something weird was going on with them. If they aren’t the same person, they sure share the same online schedule and biases a lot.

      Personally my interactions with the two of them make me doubt this.

      Though with both the conversations did spiral into a huge thread, and although they do share a lot of opinions, the behavior in those conversations was different enough to give me pause on jumping to this conclusion.

        I find them all fucking tiresome and tell them to their face. Only on the drama shit tho, I love the effort they put into content generally. I should clarify.

      Nah, they have very similar worldviews and argument styles but I’m pretty sure they’re distinct people. I’ve pissed off PugJesus and gotten personally blocked by them but I haven’t irritated PhilipTheBucket to that point yet___ on this account.
