Yeah, I don’t know what’s going on here. Looks like a mod having a breakdown. I posted the rest for context and I’m in the middle.
I got linked to the comment chain from elsewhere. The comment had a link to a tech dude’s blog, supposed to point out his white supremecism. I didn’t see anything bad in that article, but stumbled on another one with nazi apologia, thought they may have linked the wrong article, posted it. That’s it. That’s all I did.
I guess it is called awful.systems and the culture confuses me, but man, what a dick move to call me a facist in the modlog.
If nothing else, I hope this drama is entertaining.
Edit: Because this is, well, the internet: I was not defending DHH. Another removed/banned comment said they couldn’t find anything bad in that link either, so I found one where DHH was being more blatant in his bullshit.
it bugs me. language is imprecise and sometimes you get banned and the ban reason doesn’t, in your head, map to what you were saying. and then that changes how anyone who looks you up thinks you think. i’d much rather have a system that makes it clear what exactly you said and what the problem was
It might be good to have the option of a right of reply in the modlog for the person being moderated, for each mod action?
Didn’t/aren’t the devs so anti accountability now that they don’t even want mods names connected with actions?
