And yet, here you are doing just that.

Now, let’s all take a moment and quietly imagine what would happen if someone should go to .ml and call out Putin for being a sad little coward that can’t take criticism without windowing someone to death…

call out Putin for being a sad little coward that can’t take criticism without windowing someone to death…

I do not think that would be an issue. Its not like Putin is even pretending to be a leftist, nor has he ever.

Seriously? The admin there refuses to answer when asked if they support Russia. And check the modlogs. They hand out vague “rule 1” violations that are critical of communism sometimes several times a day.

.ml isn’t just a safe haven for leftist trolls.

Criticizing communism isn't criticizing Putin, who is not a communist.

I've had posts criticizing capitalism be removed from .world... So, obviously, they hate the US, right?

Hard to do, when they are already deleted :)

Modlogs bud. Now… let’s see those deleted comments.

If its that big of a concern for you, go hunt them down.

But first, since you offered it: Where are the modlogs showing bans because of Putin criticism on ml? Or Hexbear?

Interestingly enough, in specific, I got banned from world for laughing about the mass murderer that was purportedly killed by Mangione.

Where are the .ml modlogs? I’d imagine if you check the .ml modlogs, you’ll find them there. But since you refuse to provide your own logs to support your bullshit claim, it’s probably safe to assume you have no intention to bother with any of this.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Oh, well I'm sure you can check the modlogs you're looking for as well. But since you refuse to support your bullshit claim, it's probably safe to assume you have no intention to bother with any of this.

[–] [email protected] -3 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

You made the claim. Burden of proof bud- learn what it means before you plan to troll others in the future. And a word of advice to supplement this:

Just because there exist things you don’t or can’t understand, that doesn’t mean others don’t also.

And since you predictably refuse to do any of the work because you don’t want to be proven wrong, your modlogs show that you troll communities by antagonizing people and you make ignorant declarations requesting violence.

Have a nice day.
