I thought FUD was a cryptobro term.

    I went and checked, was it on this account? The only thing I see in their modlog is you got a comment removed- this one:

    and like I agree with removing that, it just looks like you’re doing this:

    You didn’t even get banned.

    Like I’ve actually tried looking up every time I see someone complaining about draconian mod actions and more often then not it’s something that just someone stirring shit and getting their wrist slapped, rather than the free speech 1984 gulag that they go on to complain about elsewhere.

      My whole instance is defederated from Hexbear as far as I can tell. I can’t quite make sense of what shows in their “instances” page, but I’m not in “allowed.” Also, entertainingly enough they are apparently happy to make use of my RSS feed communities from rss.ponder.cat, although apparently totally uninterested in the actual news contained there. No one is subscribed to anything except for hackaday.

      Here, look at this: https://ponder.cat/c/art@hexbear.net – I am subscribed, but it hasn’t updated in 6 months ever since I participated in that thread.

      As I explained in that thread when someone sent me that same picture, I am not at all fantasizing about Trump sending pro-Palestinian or pro-migrant people to concentration camps. I’m not by any means happy about it. That’s why I tried to stop it from happening and was alarmed when they were uninterested in one particular way of stopping it. Surely that makes sense? Or yes it does, or no?

        weird, your instance is not defederated on the hexbear side, not sure what’s going on there, it definitely looks like you aren’t getting posts.

        As I explained in that thread when someone sent me that same picture, I am not at all fantasizing about Trump sending pro-Palestinian or pro-migrant people to concentration camps. I’m not by any means happy about it.

        I get that, but you can see how someone could read that and feel like that’s what you were saying?

        That’s why I tried to stop it from happening and was alarmed when they were uninterested in one particular way of stopping it.

        All 80+ mil people who didn’t vote aren’t on lemmy. Some powerless online anarchists/communists failing to tow the line on shit isn’t why the ruling party essentially got swept in an incumbent election. I voted in a blue state for the communist because I agree with what they had to say about things more than I do Democrats or Republicans. It had objectively no impact. Maybe if more of the Democrats who feel as strongly as you fell into line with me instead we could actually be in a position to be using this horrifying war machine for something positive.
