    Someone seriously needs to make a community called “Rule 1” that specifically calls their shit out.

    It can either be a place to document the abusive admins on .ml (I say admins and not mods because it seems from the logs, the mods are powerless pawns that are overridden by the authoritarian admins all the time there)

    Or it can be a parody community designed to illustrate the absurdity of admin abuse.

    (I’ll help mod it if someone makes one, but I ain’t creating that shit. WAY too heady for me. lol)

      1. !meanwhileongrad@sh.itjust.works
      2. !fediverselore@lemmy.ca
      3. This one, !yepowertrippinbastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com
      4. There’s surely way more places for people to post such content, like I see it on 196 a lot as well.

      Also, while it is indeed the admins that mass ban people from communities that they’ve never even heard of across the entire instance, the mods are not entirely unknown to Lemmy users themselves. There are many famous stories, such as the one who told a user that he wanted to kill them, bc they posted a screenshot of two people kissing in some kind of dating game claiming that it was “triggering”. Those mods are protected by those admins. In turn, nobody else across the Fediverse is protected from either those mods or especially those admins.

      This is their software, and we are on their platform, always remember.

        I meant a community that specifically calls out the mystery surrounding their vague .ml “Rule 1” removals.

        And while .ml is their domain to moderate how they chose, any other instance is feee to host a community that calls out their authoritarian rigidity.

        They have domain over their own shithole of an instance- not any of the others. So it’s not their anything. Ad If they wanted that level of control over it- to be able to dictate what others can and can’t do outside of their prison, they should have emulated their authoritarian ideology and locked it down.

        It’s too bad they underestimated the number of people capable of independent thinking.

          Except that they also write the Lemmy sourcecode. Hence you can begin to understand why we cannot receive notifications about being banned or posts/comments removed, nor appeal via a modlog, nor be able to DM a mod bc you can’t even see who to talk to when the modlog simply says “mod”, nor if OP violates a rule somewhere - even on some other instance & community entirely - can others continue their discourse when OP’s post is summarily removed or then banned (on Reddit the link to the post is merely removed from the list of links shown in the community feed, but the post itself remains viable and people can finish their thoughts, unlike Lemmy where even after typing something all out you may literally not be allowed to hit Send), nor was it a priority to allow mods to see reports and thus be able to effectively moderate from another instance, thus freeing them somewhat from the control of a single admin, etc.

          It’s not even a bad thing that I am saying - especially on their end: they develop the Lemmy codebase how they want it to be, bc it was their idea and they did practically all of the work. If we want different, then we would need to similarly put in the effort to create it (and before that, open our eyes to see clearly what is going on and where we might rather be heading instead). Many have already started, like K/Mbin, PieFed, Sublinks, Mastodon, Friendica, etc.

    They believe because pooh is yellow in color they it aligns with racist stereotypes about Asians. They refuse to accept the origin of the meme was xi and Obama walking in a fashion just like pooh and Tigger.

    But Obama is not a tiger, is not orange. The meme has nothing to do with yellow.

    Until .world gets around to finishing defed’ing from the last of the Tankie Triad, best we can do is avoid generating anything on .ml. No comments, posts or upvotes. If it’s a non-tankie post cross post it to the closest relevant non-.ml community

          Ask a Chinese person if Winnie the Pooh is censored. Or any Chinese source.

          It’s simply not. It’s a myth like the social credit score system. I sincerely don’t understand how you people believe the things you believe. If I say the government in america censors Oreos because some Americans call black people that are too white Oreos… You’d easily understand it’s bullshit.

                  Because the host you’re using, or the specific model, has those censors enabled to follow state law, just as all US hosted LLMs will have to call the gulf of Mexico the Gulf of America within the year.

                  Use the uncensored model and run it locally. Or better yet don’t use LLMs whatsoever since they destroy the earth faster than crypto while providing even less benefit.

        Thanks I needed a good laugh this morning! LMAO I’m no right-wing in any sense of the word, I just don’t suck the dick of authoritarian regimes like you and other Tankies do. The irony here is that you Tankies are closer to right-wingers because of your authoritarian tendencies. See: Stethoscope theory

        Oh also, you forgot to log into your .ml account because nobody is calling for defed from SJW lolol you’re still in your “I’m totally from China” week old account LMAO

          As often as you post outright racist memes, it’s truly a wonder you have the gall to claim the things you claim.

          You’re just a disgusting bigot, no better or worse than a MAGAt. You’re just content with state approved, democrat approved bigotry.

            You only feel this way because you agree in lock-step loyalty with Pooh that free speech and criticism of an oppressive world leader should be illegal. To everyone else that is capable of free-thinking and common sense-

            It’s a freedom worth exercising.

            I sincerely hope that when you’re free of the constraints of your edgy high-school angst and manufactured outrage, you’ll see how cringy it is to defend little Pooh Bear and hopefully come to your senses.

              “hurr durr Asian man yellow” is not criticism.

              Criticism is allowed and encouraged in China… But you have to back it up. Xi has a doctorate, all members of parliament have at least the equivalent of masters degrees. "Hurrtr duuurrrr China bad because of (insert something from 80 years ago from a completely different internal party)’ isn’t going to cut it.

              I hope you get better soon. Racists are the reason the US is actively destroying itself via Trump’s trade war. You need to be better if you want to survive.

                I checked your comment history and wow… you’re nothing without your false accusations, are you?

                I mean- I suppose with times being what they are, I can understand your hero warship of that coward Xi, your angenda-inspired rhetoric, and even the schoolyard edgelord insults, but accusing people of racism with absolutely no evidence to support it?

                That’s sad and desperate.

                And judging on the reaction you get, and your many mod/admin actions of removal- it doesn’t seem like it’s succeeded even a single time to achieve whatever result you’re after.

                But best of luck on your next victim. Remember. Volume is key.

                It’s interesting that the only people who think this is what the “Pooh” insult is, are the ones trying to claim that they’re trying to stop racism…

              No, racist bigotry is racist bigotry, like believing Chinese people are a hive mind and must just be too stupid to want liberal democracy.

              And no, people that disagree with you aren’t trolls. You people came to the Internet too late and don’t know the meaning of the word.

              Yes, 400 million people are totally hive minded and brainwashed into believing a party line that’s just so illogical to you, because obviously you have all the answers, and these 400 million people oppress a billion who are statistically higher educated and better trained with weapons than the US population, who trains with weapons outside military and special response police work. That’s completely believable. Just like ten million people being locked up with no satellite evidence of any prison.

                  Calling Chinese people yellow is racist regardless of whatever justification you give it.

                IDK what 400 million people you’re talking about, considering there’s more people than that just in the demographic that’s retired and taking a pension in China, but I do know for sure tankies are a brainwashed hive mind. The Soviet Union coined a term for people like you, “useful idiots”.

                  That’s the number of people involved in the CCP. That’s the number of people you believe are brainwashed, that you think have no internal dialogue, that you think have no critical thinking skills, that you think are either stupid or being forced to participate in what you call a dictatorship.

                  If you think 400 million people can, without a single desertion, maintain a conspiracy to control the other billion in behalf of one or truly any number of people… You’re a maga Republican, conspiracy theories, etc. your thought process is no different.
