It’s kind of disappointing how people tend to use the upvote/downvote buttons. Sure, if it’s an opinion you don’t like, then downvote it to hell.

But if OP is posting a link to a legit article. That’s not an opinion, that’s facts. Downvoting facts makes them less likely to be seen by others.

Use those buttons wisely. I don’t like it any more than many others, but I’m gonna tap that upvote in hopes it might help more people see the news!

Downvote me if you want, IDGAF.

    Nobody does. Mods here are also way worse here than Reddit. They’ll ban you without even telling you why, and usually it’s because your opinion differed from theirs. And because the mods here have zero checks and balances, they can act like fascists at the slightest hint of power.

      He likely only got the job because he’s black so it evens out

      That’s one reason you received a ban from !news@lemmy.world (Racism, as noted in the ban message).

      Ate shit like you said. Tasted like your mother’s pussy.

      That’s another reason you had a comment removed. Reason given: “Civility”

      My address is your mum’s bedroom

      That one caused a ban from !Funny@sh.itjust.works (reason given: “First rule of the community is Be Kind. Come back later and try again.”)

      Your entire Modlog is on display, so don’t say “They’ll ban you without even telling you why”

      Fascist: a far-right, authoritarian, ultranationalist political ideology and movement, characterized by a dictatorial leader, centralized autocracy, militarism, forcible suppression of opposition, belief in a natural social hierarchy, subordination of individual interests for the perceived good of the nation and/or race, and strong regimentation of society and the economy.

      Yeah. Removing content that is offensive is being fascist…
