I recently got banned from [email protected] because I called out the moderator for crying about black people in God of War. The reason given? Racism, apparently, for telling the mod to stop being racist.
They deleted their account and locked the community, lol
Yea, haha. I still genuinely cannot believe the level of contradiction in their edit.
For context :
Edit: Well it seems like people here don’t agree with me. OK. I’m locking this post now as the very thing that I said happens has happened. Right here. I was called a bigot for being against DEI. Calling people racists or bigots and/or claiming harassment when those people call You out and then screaming VICTIM is simply unacceptable
Oh good lord. Do people not hear themselves? “Im not racist guys! I’m just against diversity, equity, and inclusion!!!1!” Sir, how in the fuck is that not racist?
Yep, they genuinely thought that immediately getting tossed the fuck out proved their point, that gamers are an oppressed minority. I haven’t seen shit like that since Reddit.
Remember to report problem content even if you get banned for it. The reports go to all relevant parties; the mods of the community, (who are going to be in bad faith and will likely laugh at your report) but more importantly the admins of both your and their instance. If the home instance does nothing it will signal to your instance that the admins are supporting that kind of behavior which can kick off diplomacy efforts.
The threat of defederation keeps instances accountable, as even a bad faith instance wants to retain their audience.
Oh, don’t worry, I reported them. Either way, the mod deleted their account or got permabanned, and as the sole mod [email protected] is now locked and dead for now.
This logic is what got me, for a brief period in my teens, to identify as an antisemite, because I genuinely thought that was just the word for people who think genocide is fucked and ‘never again’ sounds like a pretty good guideline.
And I’m terrified how many other kids bought into the Zionist propaganda since, and how many of them are going to be less willing to admit they made an oopsie than my dumb ass was. I’m terrified how many people are going to be hurt by second order Zionist violence, all over the world. I think when they start attacking language, a nuclear response is warranted.
Reporter: [REDACTED]
Reason: Fuck off with this racist, xenophobic shit.
Apparently decolonization is xenophobic.

I mean, racism was technically the reason you got banned. Just not your racism lol

It’s actually absurd.

I know, right? They really thought they were cooking, like a gamer martyr.
I love this response because thats still being bigoted.

‘How dare they call me a bigot for my bigoted views!’ it’s so tiring, would the fuckers just own it and stop crying all the time?
Oh hey! That was me! Nice to see you around!
That mod was a piece of work, hilarious little saga all around
Hey, fancy seeing you, comrade! It was wild, and it was hilarious to see them shut it all down. <3
Average PlayStation user, tbh.
Yea, unfortunately, but it was strange seeing such a Reddit moment on Lemmy
