I (Julianus) simply picked a server from lemmy.ml’s own list when I tried to log in and saw I was banned. I don’t know anything about those other accounts. In fact, they were banned before I could even read whatever they wrote.
The modlog doesn’t specify who took the action. That seems like something that should be logged…
What is the point of these forums if you're banned for using it?
From the modlog:
admin
Banned @Julianus
reason: 3 week timeout for more constant bickering
expires: in 21d
There are admins with clear political bias and they are using their powers to suppress opinions they don't like. This isn't a ban for violating rules... but simply replying to their posts. What gives?
Bias of opinions, ok. But bias extending to censoring other opinions isn’t cool. If a mod doesn’t like my opinions, he’s free to block me from his view, just like anyone else. But banning me from participating for speaking my mind within the rules of community isn’t leftist, it’s fascist.
I’m just warning you guys. You’re making neat little tech demo that’s heading right to a dead end, if you allow banning people for speaking withing the posted rules.
