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.

    Yeah, I absolutely agree with you. !meanwhileongrad@sh.itjust.works allows Tankies to comment and engage, some of them do, but only if they follow the rules.

    Most of the time they don’t bother with the community though because their views and extremism don’t hold up to scrutiny.

      I’m sure it’s not because of the mods’ behavior.

        The modlog is open, and the majority of bans are temporary, you can verify it yourself

          I’ve interacted with your fellow mod plenty in the past to know everything he’s about.

          He shrieks “tankie” at everyone who disagrees with him, particularly at anyone who disagrees with his support for netanyahu’s genocide. And you made sure he got to keep his banhammer to use as a disagree button.

            And I’ve since reversed those bans and reminded him of the rules. if you have something with him, take it up with him.

              He’s not going to stop banning people for disliking genocide.

              if you have something with him, take it up with him.

              I have. Got me banned from most of startrek.website. He got super pissed off when I said that centrists hate communists so much because they’re still salty about the fall of berlin.
