I just realised, I can't post anything on lemmy.ml

So, I checked https://lemmy.ml/modlog, there's a new moderator.

All posts and comments talking about China, Jinping, Russia, and Putin have been deleted and users banned

Their "anti-Orientalism" (read as pro-tankie) policy has been known for a good while.

Meanwhile dbzer0 is still federated to Hexbear, despite having a strict "no tankie" policy.

Go to !worldnews@lemmy.world for less censorship

Created my first account on Lemmy there before I know what the admins were like.

Just deleted that account.

Is this post just crying because you got banned? Why not just wait the 13 days to ride it out?

Lemmy.ml isn't even your instance, and posting in .world isn't going to reverse your ban.

.ML was always explicitly leftist, and run by communists. They're just nice and try for a reasonably ideologically diverse community.

You clearly aren't interested in following their rules (your use of the racist comparison of Xi and Winnie the Pooh breaks their "no bigotry" rule, and you can't seem to post sourced posts that fit their communities.)

Why aren't you interacting on instances you want to be on, and that want the kind of interactions you offer?

I understand it's offensive, but how is comparing Winnie the Poo to Xi racist?

[–] simply_surprise@lemmygrad.ml 10 points 1 year ago (2 children)

To be clear, I'm trying to communicate that it's considered racist/bigoted by Lemmy.ml's mods, and that's the reason the user was banned.

While I see it as bigoted, I understand that it's commonly used in lemmy.world (where we are) and I'm not going to police it's use, dunk on the user using it, or report it the way I would in .ML, Lemmygrad, or Hexbear.

The fediverse is an ideologically shared space, and I'm doing my best to reasonably interact on other instances!

With those qualifiers, would you still like me to share my reasoning?

It didn't immediately click with me when I joined that ML meant Marxist Leninist even I used to be one.

The Lemmy devs are tankies so of course the instance the devs run is gonna follow tankie ideology

[–] static@kbin.social 7 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (4 children)

Is this a mod or modteam of a few communities, or is it a global mod outside of community mods?

I'm not shure how to read the modlog.

[–] throws_lemy@lemmy.nz 10 points 1 year ago (5 children)

Currently only on world news lemmy.ml

[–] Terevos@lemm.ee 6 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I unsubscribed from world news on lemmy.ml as soon as I heard about them being tankies. Lemmy.world has the same community with mostly the same posts anyway.

Well, it seems to me that all of the removed posts seem to be accompanied by valid reasons as to why they were removed. Maybe it would help if people read the actual posts/post titles that were removed instead of bandwagoning on dumping on lemmy.ml.
