So I'm pretty sure my lemmy.ca account just got shadowbanned for telling someone that murder is NOT acceptable (lemmy.ml)

Meanwhile, another account is still out promoting murder as of less than an hour ago. Boy, lemmy sure is a great alternative to reddit.

Seriously, what the fuck?

Edit: not shadowbanned, but account lockout/suspension. Would be nice to receive some sort of notice.

I can see your post here? Why do you think you're shadow banned (I don't even know if that functionality exists yet)?

[–] RagingNerdoholic@lemmy.ml -3 points 2 years ago

Shadowbanned may have been the wrong term. I think it's actually just an account lockout.

Murder is not acceptable in any circumstance, but is defensible in some circumstances.

Whatever it was for it's only a temp ban

reason: breaking rule 1 & 2

expires: in 13 hours

So you should be unbanned in about 2 hours

Where do you find this info?

[–] Sami@lemmy.zip 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

At the bottom of each page on an instance is a link to the modlog from mods and admin of federated instances. You can see post removals and bans there.

Thanks, I didn't notice that before. Looking at the modlog, I'm guessing may have actually been for the use of a t*rd suffix ... I think? The log doesn't really get specific enough.

Yet, in the thread I presumed it was for, another user not only used a full-on r-word but also directed it at another user. They are still active and posting.

Hmm....

When I was a small boy, and I got in trouble, I'd want to know "why didn't Philip also get in trouble?"

You know what the answer was?

It didn't matter then. It doesn't matter now. And I grew up a bit.

[–] RagingNerdoholic@lemmy.ml -1 points 2 years ago (2 children)

By all objective measures, so did the person replying to me. They're still galavanting around lemmy advocating for murder.

Where?

[–] ram 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Presumably this comment in which they blame victims of abuse with no means to escape for killing their abusers.

[–] RagingNerdoholic@lemmy.ml -4 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Jesus christ. This is what's wrong with internet discussions. There is no room for nuance and everyone just assumes the worst of everyone.

I wasn't blaming anyone for anything. All I was saying is ... murder is, y'know, bad and you should maybe try not murdering. I can't believe this is controversial or ban-worthy.

Edit: downvoted for saying murder is bad. Cool beans.

How are you sure it was for that comment in particular?
