disclaimer i have no opinion on this “media bias/fact check”, site. i just think the “don’t outsource critical thinking” comment is hilarious
“Okay, sounds good. Here is my own critical thinking backed up with some primary sources.”
Believe it or not, ban, right away. We have the best users in the world because of ban.
Your mistake is citing western media. Also anything that isn’t state propaganda is western media.
Oh wow wtf
right! like i never post here but this was so blatant i had to share. 😅😅
Well seems like I’ve been avoiding the worst part of lemmy so far, and what i have seen is already makes me question to leave again.
join an instance like mine that defederates both ml instances 😉 i just check the modlogs on occasion for the popcorn & tea
I think mine does as well, at least i haven’t seen their shit.
Ok, note to self: .ml is evil
looks like they defederate you, actually 🕊️
lol well nothing of value lost apparently.
Tankies don’t like facts.
I’ve been getting truly bizarre bans from them for a long time.
My favorite one was “orientalism” because I was explaining the basic complexity of translation between Mandarin and English as an example of how bizarre and complex translation is between all languages.
I banned lemmy.ml finally, otherwise you have to copy paste media bias fast check and dictionary definitions constantly, and so few of them can read in the first place it’s barely worth it.
I banned lemmy.ml finally
A wise decision
I have quite a bit of patience (most days) to talk with someone who is stubbornly refusing to engage with the conversation in a way that would enable factual progress to be made, but when they are banning you / deleting you for making sense that they don’t want you to make, there’s not much to do but to look for the door.
Yea. I did have fun there for a while, because they’re all looking to spend time arguing about literally anything, but like you said, it’s extremely frustrating when the mod invades a thread about EV auto repair and bans you for a month because “[bigotry]this user hates commuting to work” or something equally absurd, baseless and unrelated.
They really don’t like mediabiasfactcheck over there
Lol let me guess lemmy.ml? Surprised we haven’t defederated from them yet. It’s pretty much the new hexbear
Big instances straight up defederating does run the risk of causing a mass migration like with Hexbear, throwing ultra mega instances like .world into further moderation turmoil.
So that’s a choice that has to be made with care, though not a terrible one in the long term so long as the short term repercussions can be handled.
In the meantime I like reccomending folks join small instances with a defederation list and mod team they like (like mine). 🙂
I’m not Canadian, the only reason I picked lemmy.ca was because they defederated from hexbear good and early :o
That does show good judgement.
That filth goes to wherever they can troll people. The minute we ban .ml you’ll see blahaj become the cesspit.
