All from in this thread in !world@lemmy.world about a chant at a British music festival where an artist said "death, death to the IDF".
After other users were quoting that chant in the comments and had comments removed and banned, the hero of our story, @theacharnian@lemmy.ca (appearing as "acargitz") pointed out that under international law, fighting an occupying force is legitimate. But apparently not under world news rules, as their removed comments and the many explanations from mods make clear in the thread.
Equally against the rules is the call for the eradication of an organisation or business, even without an explicit call to violence against individual members of the business.
In the same thread: user @DeathToTheIDF@lemmings.world had comments removed for being anti-American "(again)", though I couldn't see the first time. It's not even clear to me how the removed comments were anti-American.
Bonus points for the "DC Comics" removal reason. Though this seems to be incompetence, rather than malice.
A laudable goal. But one you are so clearly not actually attempting to live up to. If you were, you might have realised all the people telling you that you're being a lower tripping hastard have a point.
You can't ban a person for saying "get rid of genocidal institutions" and then claim it was a Just act on the basis of a no violence policy.
If you were a good mod, you'd say "mea culpa. I made a mistake. Let me reverse it and unban the user." But you're not a good mod, you're a power tripping bastard who has doubled down every single time you get called out—except for all the times you've chosen to try to deflect the conversation into irrelevancy.
They don't have a point. Look at their modlogs.
They are whiny kids, or people with the emotional intelligence of whiny kids, who just can't stand authority and being told "No, you can't do that."
Lemmy has a large anarchic element, it's really no wonder.
And compare what they're saying with what you banned them for.
Yeah, like the guy I literally just banned for pro-Israel propaganda:
