Argument about why an instance doesn’t want to federate with another instance that’s devoted to political trolling. Apparently that kind of behavior is simply a core tenet of the belief system, and to criticize it is to reject the whole ideology.

      I did not misinterpret yerbouti. Based on a prior interaction, I knew exactly what they meant. CW: Extreme transphobia. Their “research” involved a suicide joke and invalidating the expressed gender identity of Hexbear users. Yerbouti was just being transphobic, period. I’m not at all confused by the censorship, Lemmy.world moderators and admins protect and foster that behavior.

      To respond to your point, myself and many other users’ direct lived experience has been Lemmy.world protecting transphobes and zionists, and banning those calling the DNC complicit in genocide. I’ve given you several examples of not just me but others. Certainly you can see the problem, right?

      The fact is, the vast majority of people I interact with do take me seriously. You keep referencing this “reputation” I have with “others,” but I largely am seen positively by leftists and negatively by liberals, and those on the liberal side often still respect my honesty and civility even though they disagree.

          You genuinely don’t get the connection between the suicide joke and the comment “cause 95% of you are guys lets be honest?” You’re bending over backwards for obvious transphobes that make no attempt to hide it purely because they share your anti-Hexbear bias. If you genuinely can’t come up with an explanation for the 95% comment yet find it not at all transphobic, then there’s no way you’ll ever admit to being mistaken anywhere else.

          Secondly, I have given evidence not just of myself, but other users directly being censored, where you even agreed with me that that’s problematic. I have never said Lemmy.world censors everything, just that they foster an environment by censoring particularly squeeky wheels and preventing leftists from federating, under reasoning they should also ban hilarious-chaos for if they were being consistent.

          Do you see why you’re getting pushback from people here?

              That’s one of the most mask-off instances of transphobia, referring to the userbase of Hexbear itself as “95% guys.” Yerbouti didn’t mention the people in the thread, but Hexbear as an instance. You clearly don’t care about an honest conversation when you bend over backwards to defend Zionists and transphobes like that. I’ve answered every question, I can’t give a number on something like that. You’ve clearly demonstrated dishonesty and bad faith, called me a liar numerous times throughout this thread, only to be disproven time and time again.

                As a. FYI, Phillip lied when he said he never knew about PugJesus, when he’s had accounts interact with him on communities he’s modded and talked before. He’ll feign ignorance and being a smartass when everyone with an once of reality knows his bullshit.

                I’ve answered every question,

                I can think of one you haven’t answered…

                There are a few more, actually. Another good one would be:

                What types of stories or comments would you like to be able to post on lemmy.world that you currently cannot, can you give me an example?

                If you send me an article you would like to post on lemmy.world, that doesn’t violate any kind of community rules but that you think will be banned because it is anti-DNC or anti-Israel, I’m happy to post it and see whether it gets deleted as part of their grand conspiracy to make sure that the postings are only 99% criticism of Israel and preventing you from securing that vital last percent.
