Cheezus Crust. Just because of one removed comment you got so fucking mald. Get some perspective. YDI. Don’t make every post in PTB about drag and neopronouns.

Just because of one removed comment
As long as his comment shouldn’t have been removed, your reply is utterly stupid.
You could reply with “just because one innocent had to spend time in prison…”.
Do you see how it works?
No comment should be removed on stupid suspicion of trolling (which in practice means mods don’t like the views expressed by a user) and mods who do that shouldn’t be mods.
You could reply with “just because one innocent had to spend time in prison…”.
Weak. You should have gone straight for the Hitler comparison.

Are you a little bit slow?
You told the guy that it doesn’t matter if you were right or wrong removing his comment because it was just one comment. This is a ridiculous reply.
If the comment shouldn’t have been removed, than it shouldn’t have been removed. If you admit you shouldn’t have removed it, than apologise to him rather than trying to ridicule his reaction.
That comment should absolutely be removed. I’m pointing out that even if they disagree with me, it’s just one goddamn comment
That comment should absolutely be removed
Quote the rule under it should have been removed, I dare you. Just not ridiculous arbitrary “trolling” as so far I see your comments as trolling more than his - in this thread anyway.
I’m not the kind of person who maintains a 300 page rules document for most to ignore and for a few dedicated others to dig for loopholes. Use your brain, common sense, and If you don’t like how the comm is run, feel free to open another. I don’t care.

No, you are definitely a kind of person who makes them up when you go along. In this case you even didn’t bother to make it up I see, you just blatantly removed his comment because you didn’t like it. You should have never became a mod.
Do a decent thing and apologise to him.
we won’t allow bellyaching about being sanctioned for hate speech or bigotry
actively disrespecting a user’s identity def seems to fit under that
actively disrespecting a user’s identity
Are you taking the piss? He was referring to a user with identity “dragonfucker”. Plus he wasn’t disrespecting it. Plus there is absolutely nothing in rule you quoted about disrespect, try to understand what you are reading next time.
Jesus piglets how many sockpuppets do you have??
Just your wife but she prefers more dirty names than that.
That’s gonna be a surprise to my husband
Don’t tell him, let’s keep it between us.
Are you a little bit slow?
i dont normally downvote but wow you get an exception
Of course you don’t, sweetie. I have seen your other ridiculous comments in this thread.
listen here sweaty i dont know what avoiding downvoting has to do with my other ridiculous comments in this thread but nothing justifies ableism except if youre being ableist toward a liberal but maybe not even then im not sure actually i need to reflect on my values a bit thanks for being a sounding rod for me
lmao here, spermaceti.

Try to think again. Slowly.

And yet, that discussion immediately devolved into a drag & neopronouns argument. See how that works? Use other comparisons and less trolly phrasing.
deleted by creator
Unfortunately I have to look the big picture, and some topics, like drag, tend to dominate posts and unnecessarily heat up discussions in PTB into flamewars. You don’t have control, but I do have responsibility to curate this community to be positive and not have every goddamn topic discussing neopronouns. You got one (1) comment removed, ffs. Just use a different comparison.
deleted by creator
I literally just removed one (1) comment because it’s causing this drama yet again. Not everything is meant to a personal affront to you! You really need to get some perpective and chill the fuck out.
I already explained the reasoning so I don’t think there’s anything left to say here.
But if this thread starts the neopronouns discussion once more, I’m locking it like the rest.

And you shouldn’t have done and he is well within his rights to raise your power trip. While his comment don’t make much sense, he is definitely not breaking any rules and therefore should not have been removed.

No, it is you who should get some perpective. You are not some infallible human being. You made a mistake. Apologise to him for removing his comment.
yeah we should be able to talk about that pronouns arent real and those who use them dont deserve respect it doesnt hurt anything
edit you said you wouldnt engage me but then did it anyway
also sorry db0 but tbf they started it

Try being more constructive. You begin to identify a genuine issue but you attribute it to some conspiracy that all the mods are trying to exclude leftists by making controversial rules. I think that is incorrect, they are trying their best even if their policy I wouldn’t fully agree with. It’s hard to get everyone to agree on anything, but leftists doubly so.
So, what is the moderation style that you’d want to see in a Lemmy community? Could you find or create a community on an instance like lemm.ee that might fit that better?
Just being salty about having your incendiary comment removed won’t accomplish much.

classic please pm me whatever that tactic is called where you can just avoid a good point by saying that kind of thing because id like to read up on that to use it myself
Buddy, thanks for backing me up, but there are better places to start a chain of sarcastic backtalk than here.

Guess what? This is just humans. This is your normal in-group/out-group dynamics. It’s tribalism, it’s always always tribalism.
It’s not some shady group trying to undermine you, it’s that humans by and large fucking suck at this stuff and recognizing when they’re doing it. It’s why I never felt much affinity for “groups” to begin with, because they always devolve to this.
And others are right, by bringing up the drag drama, you undermine your own point.
deleted by creator
Are you trolling right now? The mod thought you were.
People think and do dumb shit all the time completely genuinely. Just because something seems crazy to you doesn’t mean it seems crazy to everyone. We all have a different perspective.

If somebody asks me to refer to drag that way, I’ll just do it. Why not?
If drag’s fun to be around, I might hang out, if drag sucks or is boring, I’ll move on and talk to somebody else.
I wouldn’t take multiple days out of my life to scream about how “they don’t really mean it” or how it breaks a rule my first grade teacher taught me about grammar.
deleted by creator
And yet here we are days later and I see people apparently very upset about pronouns because they know drag doesn’t really mean it.
If drag is a troll, take a second to think about who is feeding the troll in these threads…

You have a point on the concern trolling, but fwiw I think you could characterize the vegan situation a bit differently - read e.g. https://sopuli.xyz/post/21265293/13960349. Whether we agree with their position or not, they do have one, and it behooves the cause of finding truth to characterize it as accurately as possible.

What? Actual vegans definitely talk like that. Not just online, in real life. I have personally heard vegans say the same thing. It isn’t even just a small handful. I know a decent number of vegans out here. Some of them are friends and relatives, so I spend time with them in restaurants, bars, and other shared spaces as well as private spaces.
The ones that are part of my life by choice are the sorts that don’t treat being vegan like a crusade, they make their life choice, and live it with strength and their own actions without making it about imposing their beliefs on others.
And I have personally been present when some of them were verbally attacked for that. By vegans. The exact phrase “you aren’t a real vegan” has been used in my presence by vegans to vegans. Also, “you’re just a vegetarian, you don’t really care about animals” because the target simply wasn’t willing to fuss and fight non vegans over a difference in belief.
Hell, you just drew a gatekeeping line by saying “actual vegans don’t talk like that”. So, if you’re a vegan, you just talked like that, even though it wasn’t the same gatekeeping.

It’s not exactly the same thing, imho, and I say this as neither a vegan nor entirely a fan of how that situation was handled. In large part not bc of what you are saying but the confrontational nature of how you are saying it. So now you call them an asshole, and they call you one in return… and at that point, regardless of whether you were initially right or wrong, wouldn’t that confrontation have justified the removal of your comment, from this community?
The latter point does surprise me a bit tbh - normally this community is quite open to challenges, even to the very mods themselves, e.g. you see that this very post is still up. Btw there’s also !fediverselore@lemmy.ca if you ever need it, linked to in the sidebar of this community. My point is that there is no shortage of spaces to complain about PTB mods, though your words will carry more weight if people are able to be more receptive of them, for which it tends to help to make less loaded statements as “they are all assholes” and more like “I highly disagree with their position, what about you?”
Look, I lived in the pre-internet days. I can tell you it’s fucking tribalism, because it was exactly the same in small community groups before the internet.

Okay, there’s no rule explicitly saying “don’t bring up old and divisive discussions, that are likely to derail the new discussions into off-topic”… but come on that’s a given innit?
