which means you have to look at the other accounts to see what the deal is.
What other accounts? My other main lemmy account was https://sh.itjust.works/u/UniversalMonk account. Posts are public there too.
And I recently started https://feddit.online/u/UniversalMonk And posts are public there too. I also have a xander science one. and I was on vegantheory before it closed down.
All are socialist-oriented and/or third party oriented. My posts and profile for .world is still up to.
Are you forgetting that everyone on .world was mad because I advocated third-party voting BEFORE the election. Back when it was traitorous to say so on Lemmy? It's cool now, but def wasn't cool to advocate third-party then.
So what alts are you referring to?! I've always advocated third-party voting and always said the duopoly sucks. I mention it in all of my profiles too.
The reason for the alts I mentioned is because you never know when an instance will shut down. Lemm.ee the 2nd or 3rd biggest instance is shutting down. Pefect example. And I used to be on lemm.ee too. profile is public there too.
Here’s a link to a call to action on slrpnk calling to ban UM.
Yep, and they gave in to the mob-rule and banned me. But look at every single post i made on slrpnk. Socialist or solar oriented. The mod actually reached out before he banned me, gave me the reasons (the mob-ruling people) and offered me time to switch my stuff over. So I have no ill-will for slrpnk whatsoever. They were totally cool about it.
I have a special place in my heart for disliking people who account-hop
Again, see the lemm.ee instance shutting down. The vast majority of my posts are from here and st.justworks. Both histories are public.
All you are saying is that people don't like me. Ok. We know that. I KNOW that people don't like me because I didn't vote for Biden/Harris/Trump. I have always said they are the same. And I always will. Proud of the fact that I advocated for third party then, before it was well-accepted.
I don't wanna turn this into a political thing, but let's face it. That's why you and others are mad at me: I didn't vote for Biden/Harris/Trump and was open about it.
Now having said all that. I have nothing to do with OP. OP isn't banned from any of my communities. You all turned this in to a UM fest, I am merely defending myself.
ALL my posts from every instance I have been on are public. People are fine not to like me because I don't worship the teet of the capitalist duopoly. Cool!
But don't go around making up shit that's not true like that I'm the guy who banned OP. I have never even heard of OP until this post today. Enough people hate me for real reason, people don't have to make up stuff. (not meaning YOU specifically, I mean the others talking about alts that aren't me.)
Also thanks for your posts about threads to ban me. I AM proud of those, because they show in black and white, for all to see, the mob-rule bullying that happens to people who aren't exactly doing what you want. That's why they are also in my profile graphic. I'm not trolling, I'm wearing the mob-rule madness as a badge because I'm glad I stood up to you all then, and standing up to you all now.
But I got nothing to do with OP's situation. I think this is all going off topic, and people should just concentrate on OP's complaint.
Also the AUK you are talking about uses a bot to ban from his community regardless of if you've never voted there, or posted there. The mod logs are full of his bot bans/unbans.
The admin during that conversation disagreed with him.
In fact, I'm not banned from that dude's comm. I checked just now. lol
Fuckin' well said!
What you are saying is true, just has nothing to do with me. My post history is public.
I thought it was just because I have a new bigger monitor and everything is fuckass small now on my computer. Looks like OP messaged the mod first. Looks like he was laughing and dissing the mod, then mod replied but I can't see for certain. Gave up looking looking and just cursed my monitor until your post.
Ahhh! Ok, yep, that makes more sense. Edited my comment, and I'll edit my others as well.
you’re singularly responsible for turning this thread into a you-fest
I didn't bring my name up tho! I only started responding to people who started saying my name--you included. I didn't start any of this drama. I'm not even in main OP's post! He's not banned from any of my stuff and I've never even heard of him
you just need to not reply.
So I shouldn't reply to a bunch of people making up false shit about me and my motivations?! Nah, I'll stand up for myself. Thanks for the advice, anyway.
But yes, I'm happy to move on if people stop bringing up my name when I have nothing to do with OP, OP's situation, and OP is not banned in any of my communities anyway.
I'd say by new, or just "views." Like the more people view something, the higher it goes? Not sure, but I just see voting being too onery lately.
Fair point. I was trying to keep from a slapfighting removal. It's a fine line between defending myself, and having the arguments just keep going on. So maybe saying "Let's move on" would have been more appropriate, I've edited comment. I'm not the subject of OP's post so I wasn't sure how to defend myself when people say it's me, but I don't wanna be accused of a slapfight.
The next day I see more of his junk and go to downvote but can’t because I’m banned. Sure it was a dick move to poke the bear about his lifestyle of only posting things that get downvoted,
Sounds like you were looking for a fight. From your very tiny low-res submitted example, looks like you dm'd him first. You downvoted a bunch of shit, got banned, then dm'd him to mock him. Then he replied. Now you're mad?
Don't go starting shit in places, dm them to brag about it, then come here and be upset about how he replied back. Based on info so far, YDI or at least BPR.
You can block/ignore me and you won't see any of my posts or comments. I had nothing to do with OP and he's not banned from any of my communities, so off-topic anyway.
No change of heart. All my posts are public here and on .world too. Take a look. You'll see that I was always third-party. In fact, that's how the hate started. I was posting articles about the Green Party candidate to the .world politics comm. Then switched my vote over to Socialist Party.
Back in the day, that was considered treason because I wasn't voting for Biden or Harris. Now Lemmy is cool w third party. Back then, they def were not cool. I was called a russian troll, said I'd disappear after the election, etc. One poster in particular who's posting in this very thread, used to say I was a russian traitor for supporting third party.
All my posts and comments are public. People are just holding grudges because I didn't vote for the duopoly. I was proud of it then. Proud of it now. Off-topic though. I'm not the person OP was talking about and OP isn't banned from any of my communities anyway.
OP never suggested that, and never mentioned any alt accounts, so it's strange you would bring that up.
Oh banned from way more places than just .world! I stand by every post though. I proudly stood against the duopoly before standing against the duopoly was cool. I haven't changed my mind: Third-party forever. Union forever. No regrets!
But off-topic. Let's not turn this into a UM fest. I had nothing to do with OP or his banning. He's not even banned in my communities.
No voting at all would be my preference. Piefed is awesome though.
It was always suspected that DJM was an UM alt, and then was confirmed when he posted one of UM’s rants word for word.
Word-for-word rant?! I've seen others say that too, but I've never seen it. Any receipts? I even looked on my own. I am not finding any word for word rant. You have a link to the rant? I have never DM'd any "heinous bullshit." Again, any proof or links or screenshots? OP is not banned in any of my communities. But if he went in my communites and downvoted a bunch of shit and as he admitted to, "poked the bear," then I'd prolly ban him too. Like others have been saying and doing.
Off-topic tho. I have nothing to do with OP or the post.
EDIT: Let's just move on. I'm not the subject of OP's situation. Unless you have proof of the word-for-word rant that the guy supposedly took from me--then we can keep going. I haven't seen any of that in his post history tho
Wow, thanks for the details. I never dove into it that deep. Great write-up!
Lemmy can be more authoritarian than even Reddit.
I think it's leaning that way. And I think it's hampering it's growth. I still like Lemmy way more than Reddit though!
And piefed is awesome!
. Got shadow banned from news
Can Lemmy even shadow-ban tho? I wasn't aware that was a thing.
Yeah, that's weird. I wish people would be more descriptive in ban reasons. As the story is so far, it sounds like PTB to me. I get the impression from others on Lemmy that midwest is pretty ban-heavy tho.
Feel free to look at my post history. I'm not new, different, or purged. My post history is public: https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/u/UniversalMonk?page=1&sort=New&view=Posts
