I caught a mod at Late Stage Capitalism admitting they aren’t from the US, so they deleted all my posts and banned me.
Hahah their mods are in a cranky mood. Got banned the other day for saying that while you can easily say the dems enabled the Gaza genocide, it was a bald faced lie to say they were comitting it
(Well that was the claim. Pretty it was actually because i had a disagreement with someone being a dipshit who had claimed he owned the comm)
What constitutes “committing a genocide” according to you?
Action.
A political party in another country that protests, applies soft pressure against and criticising murderous acts is a milquetoast response but it is not the same as engaging your military with open slather to murder a population
So as long as the Democrats “protest, apply soft pressure against and criticize murderous acts” while at the same time providing political cover for Israel, and continuing arms sales and US financial support to the regime, then it’s not the same as endorsing genocide? Actions count a lot louder than
wordslies. The Democratic party has proven time and again it can’t be trusted to do the right thing. I think you are right that grassroots democrats are generally opposed to these things, but sadly the vast majority of the party establishment is not. Let’s hope the midterms in the US results in enough anti Zionist candidates getting elected that it will make some difference.Oi, i said COMITTING.
Wall of text there bud, and most of it strawmanning.
I freely admitted they were enabling in my removed posts on lsc. I had issues with people saying they were comittting genocide, which is a bald faced lie.
Watering down concepts and words is part of how we ended up in this fucking debacle of a timeline
If you are providing the weapons to kill people and providing the money for other people to kill them, you are actively committing genocide. And the truly evil part is denying there is a genocide happening whole actively participating
Well this is silly. The mod of that comm certainly seems to enjoy getting in fights. So modlog says you are banned for Rule 6 which relates to calling someone Tankie, Russian Bot, etc.
Be civil in comments and no accusations of being a bot, ‘paid by Putin,’ Tankie, etc. This includes instance shaming.
I think implying they were lying about where they are living does sort of fall under that, but its a reach.
That said, they also didn’t say they were not from US. Just that you wouldnt be able to see the point because you’re from the US. Nonsense, and obviously logically inconsistent, but not an admission. They also might be an immigrant of some kind, their post history mentions travelling in Texas and other states, so they have by their own words at least been to the US.
I would say its a wash. Ban was a bit of a powertrip unless they revise their rule 6 to explicitly include implications of false identity, but also this is right at the top of the rules and jumping to they’re a foreign propagandist is silly on a global platform.
That means any support for any liberal capitalist political party (like the Democrats) is strictly prohibited.
Why not just block the comm and move on? From what I’ve seen of your profile I can’t imagine a sub with that rule is going to be a good time for you.
OP was all over that thread spreading lib nonsense and directly accusing OOP of being a foreigner trying to manipulate US politics (for an implied ulterior motive). Especially being on .world, it’s a hard comm to keep clean, so the mods don’t have much tolerance before banning libs
I know a lot of people disagree with my politics, but he literally told me that Democrats are Republicans and that fascism has no definition. I mean, come on! That’s just denying objective reality.
There you go again parroting something that was never said. I said the definition is fluid and adapts to changing situations to remain in control, like a virus.
Fuck off. You literally said “Democrats are Republicans”. You are either a paid propagandist or a liar or both. In any case nobody should listen to a word from you.
In case I wasn’t clear, DEMOCRATS ARE RIGHT WING FASCISTS exactly like their republican counterparts.
Rule 6 was the last straw, they had a very long laundry list of rule violations
ydi. how is it relevant where someone lives (unless the comm is only for americans, which it isn’t), except to imply that because they aren’t american, they can’t be trusted? the blight on lemmy world isn’t the token socialists being critical of us politics, it’s the democrats who can’t accept totally legit criticisms of their party, and jump directly to mccarthyism, which helps prove the criticism is valid imo.
My problem with GodlessCommie isn’t that he’s not American. My problem is he is the sole mod of a relatively popular sub and tries to dissuade people from voting and bans anyone that doesn’t support his narrative.
He’s stupid, and dangerous.
You intentionally misinterpret don’t vote for Democrats or Republicans as don’t vote and then try to claim those are our only choices. those are the only chocies that you have locked yourself into
that’s not the problem, the problem is his distinct and repeated calls for people to not participate in the process - which is a great way to lose elections. do you want more trump? no?
THEN FUCKING VOTE
love all the fucking chuds ‘downvoting’ literal encouragement for people to vote lol, the irony is hilarious.
I would vote if there was a single candidate on my ballot that didn’t support genocide.
Down votes by those denying a genocide occurred during Biden but see it plain as day now
I’ve NEVER said dont vote, I’ve repeatedly said dont vote for POS right wing bourgeois candidates. Which includes democrats and republicans
It’s deeply entertaining how communists can’t even run an online community without resorting to bans and mass censorship of thoughts they disagree with.
Can confirm. GodlessCommie is a piece of trash that bans anyone not supporting his narrative.
You’re bitter because you were told that you not allowed to have a voice in a space where your voice and opinion do not matter
YES
I’ve been warning people about this dipshit loser and the Late Stage Capitalism sub, which he alone moderates, for the last few months.
Guy is a Grade-A loser who tries to dissuade people from voting and deletes comments and bans users who disagree with his shit opinions.
Do not feed this troll. Do not contribute to that sub.
What the hell were you even doing in a comm called “Late Stage Capitalism,” lib?
Did you all of a sudden just up and decide you don’t like capitalism any more? That would be quite awkward for a liberal, methinks.
That would be quite awkward for a liberal, methinks.
you fucks keep trying to redefine what a liberal is, and it’s hilarious how incompetent you are at the attempts.
utterly sad way to spend your life, but it’s your free time I guess.
LOL!
Are you being serious, Clyde?
You’ve been a bootlicker for capitalism all this time, and you didn’t even realise it?
What a joke a working class “liberal” is - at least fascists know there’s an unbrideable gap between them and the liberal elites that fund them.
Which makes you dumber than them… despite your pretensions.
LOL… FDR liberalism created the middle class, 40 hour work week, and so much more… what a stupid, silly take on ACTUAL HISTORY
FDR helped create the middle class to act as a buffer between capital and the working class/class solidarity. Give them a small stake in capital with the fear of potentially losing it to protect the interest of the capitalist class. That same FDR that you’re praising also locked up US citizens, and denied immigration into the US, something that I believe liberals are in an uproar with Trump doing right now.
