Asking fair questions? On lemmy.ml?? That's a banning

Complains about communist censorship
Tankies censor them
Checks out

Rule 1 strikes again.

Well aside, I love indications that someone has never seen a word in writing. The visual equivalent of a bizarre pronunciation. English is full of these opportunities because it's a creole gone feral. Occasionally you get it both ways, where people never connect appetizers called "ordervs" to a menu section titled "hors d'oeuvre."
- How to pronounce hors d'oeuvres

It's an accusation framed as a question.
But ya. The banning has gotten out of hand.
A critical mass of precious ideologues? Seems unlikely. I actually think somebody is trying to split up lemmy.
- I actually think somebody is trying to split up lemmy.
  I doubt it
- Have you not been in the same world I have for the last decade or so?
  I mean you got the "pointless conspiracy theory when behavior can be explained as humans being human" part down but...
  
  We must be familiar with a different species of human. Normal people aren't this touchy... and, I dunno, "tribal".

If things get censored you can never have a discussion about them and I think that's bad.
- You can't argue with .ml people. They just want to praise their glorious mass murderer ... I mean, leaders.
  
  Which country do you live in where your leaders aren't mass murderers?

What is rule 1?
- Rule 1 is the lemmy.ml instance wide rule "officially" against bigotry, but unofficially and in practice, it's their catchall Rule for any speech they don't personally like i.e. speech critical of Russia/CCP/NK etc
  
  You see, criticism of China = sinophobia = bigotry = rule 1. Easy.

Literally!

It's it all political posting? Has anyone tried a similar post with a pro Russia slant?
- How can anyone in good faith support the west?
  /s ofc.
- I did. On Reddit. And got banned. Now switched to Lemmy, because I thought that mods are normal here, but it seems that either Reddit mods caught up or Lemmy is Reddit in blue. Hope not so!
  
  Lemmy isn't a centrally controlled entity. Each instance has its own rules...
  .ml for example is a Russian controlled propaganda instance. Even thinking something bad about China or Russia while browsing there is enough for a ban :p

OMW to spam world everyday with post like
How can you support US humhum they are very bad here's a list of all bad things US has done in history and is currently doing.
I'm a very big human defender you see humhum I don't understand how you can be an American citizen and still haven't revolted it must mean than you support every bad things that has been done by US gov..
Are you seeing all these guys minimizing US action instead of revolting ?? They are not even caring to learn they bomb middle east for no reason I guess they all support bombing Yemen.. omg US conception of human rights seems a bit barbaric, are there schools in USA ?
- You're defending the instance that said and supported "France deserves 1000 Charlie Hebdos?" From @jai.lai or whatever your french instance is called?
  Ok, well have fun with that.
  
  'The instance that said' Lmao just look at you
- -16 and what's that? You're not banned 😲
- I dont support any of them, what I support is better social policies on all of the planet
  
  Yes me too and anyone of good faith can admit the original post is not helping achieving that. It is doing the opposite, fueling useless clash created only to make people feel better about the place they live in cause it seems worse outside, and actually making them more dull and diligent because it seems worse outside.
- People already do that.
  They're not banned. You have to block them yourself.
- If you want people to know what you are saying you need to take the shoe leather out of your mouth first.

Is "how can anyone support countries like these WTF?" really your idea of a fair question?
You're a troll who got banned for trolling. You weren't even creative with your trolling, just "hurr durr China bad". Do something more productive with your time.
- Jesus, the guy just asked a fair question and got banned. You know what it smells like? It smells like tankies shitting their pants and calling mommy for help.
  
  Ive seen .ee mods ban people for just as little
- Firstly, if you're going to just blanket defend tankies, the least you could do is pay attention, Im not OOP and this is MOWG not YPTB. MOWG is where anyone can and should post documentation of the tankies behavior, agenda pushing and biases. YPTB is where, by comm rules, only OP can post their issue.
  Secondly, are you claiming OOP didn't post something truthful? Was there something incorrect? Is Russia actually LGBTQ+ friendly?
  Admins of .ml love to claim that they don't censor like the "Reddit-like .world/.ee" instances, but this flys in the face of it. The mods of that comm didn't even decide to remove that post, it was davel, an instance admin that's not listed as a mod for that comm
  
  Well at least the tiannemen square part is bullshit.
