These mods on their power-trips really need to stop (programming.dev)

I just got banned from linux@lemmy.ml, which seems to be the biggest Linux community out there.

For context, it was about the recent Vaxerski incident, where I shared my personal opinion about the whole gender stuff. I wasn't even trying to be hurtful against anyone, just shared my 2 cents in an already ongoing conversation.

Sure, ine might not agree with my opinion, and I don't agree with others, and this is totally normal. But at least we should be able to have sane and respectful conversations where no one is insulting each other, or anyone else... without having a mod intervening into the conversation

So to all the mods out there: Your personal opinion does not give you the right to delete comments and block users, just because their opinions don't align with yours!

If anyone wants to know why this user was banned.

As soon as I saw it was about "the whole gender stuff" I knew it had to be some garbage bigoted take lol

Lmao. So OP is unwilling to show others the simple courtesy of respecting their gender identity then comes running here to whine about dIsReSpeCt because their bigoted hot take got them a three day ban from a community. 🙄

Edit: Ooooh and they're on a three day old account too? In that case I give it an hour or two before they realize they aren't getting any sympathy here and run to r/RedditAlternatives to complain about "censorship" on Lemmy and lament the lack of freeze peach reddit alternatives.

On par for people complaing about a ban.

The funniest part is that privileged people get pissy about being called by their title all the time, it does sometimes materialize in jokes, but that's still punching up.

As a fun experiment I misgender bigots until they got mad about it. It doesn't take long.
