This post is “FYI only” for blahaj lemmy members. It is not a debate, and is not intended for non blahaj lemmy users to weigh in and offer opinions.
I recently received reports of a feddit.uk user espousing transphobia. Specifically, this was a feddit.uk user refusing to use the word cis, repeating the “adult human female” dog whistle, and claiming that trans women are not women. I approached a member of the feddit.uk admin team and raised my concerns and sought clarification of their stance on posts like this, where the transphobia is mostly dogwhistles, and “civil disagreement” on the validity of trans folk.
I was told by the feddit.uk admin that their preferred response is this kind of transphobia is to “sort it out through discussion and voting”. However, the comments in question are currently more upvoted than downvoted, and little “sorting out” has occurred. The posts remain in place.
At this point, the admin stopped responding to my messages despite being active elsewhere on lemmy. When it became clear they were ignoring my messages and had no intention of removing the posts in question, I made the decision to defederate the instance.
I know some folk agree with the feddit.uk admins approach of pushback through discussion and voting, but this instance is not designed to be that kind of space. Blahaj lemmy is meant to be a place where we can avoid the rampant transphobia universally visible on nearly every other social media platform, and where we can exist without needing to debate our right to do so.
Leni is clown but yeah content in question hardly warrants all this drama. The main value here is seeing blaha mods getting this bent out of shape over it.
The over reach is inappropriate. On reddit, we would never be privy to any of this. Fedi has brought a lot of light about how these clowns operate.
Modding like this is censorship which should be reserved for criminal issues and actual trolling.
I wouldn’t leave it to just trolling and illegal stuff. Spamming obvious propaganda, shitting up a digital space with dumb bullshit (doesn’t have to political, just distracting and irrelevant), commercial spam, baiting users to piss them off. There are many situations were mod actions are justified.
I think trolling covers most of what you listed but I definitely missed commercial spam. I forgot about since this ain’t reddit. But yeah that’s definitely deserves a ban.
In case you haven’t noticed, I’m not relevant to any of this either. You’re the first person to bring me up and what all this hoopla about me right now is based on. I’m not sure how someone is a clown for sticking to values she is always willing to discuss.
This a social media platform and leni is a mentally unstable person.
Behavior from blaha is more telling than whatever stupid shit leni says.
Nobody takes this person seriously… He ain’t a hitler in bar in bavaria and y’all need to learn how to spot threat actors because excessive censorship is how trump got elected ;)
What is it with you and your grudge against me? All because I listened to people higher than me and temporarily removed you from a community for trying to dog whistle that Luigi guy (or is this based on year-old claims that have fallen apart in the face of discussion). You’re not even removed anymore, so who again is demonstrating what kind of demeanor here?
In a world where misinformation justifies itself that way and where you have indeed existentially rallied against me on multiple occasions, both parts of what you just said are debatable.
For someone who so often brings up the power of discussion, if that was a concern of yours (it isn’t an issue a lot of other people have), I’m surprised you aren’t one to simply ask “what does X part mean” when you are stumped.

Any drama must be posted as an observer, you cannot post drama that you are involved with.
When posting screenshots of drama, you must obscure the identity of all the participants.
The poster must have a credible post and comment history before submitting a piece of history. This is to avoid sock-puppetry and witch hunts.
The usual instance-wide rules also apply.
Chronicle the life and tale of the fediverse (+ matrix)
Largely a sublemmy about capturing drama, from fediverse spanning drama to just lemmy drama.
Includes lore like how a instance got it’s name, how an instance got defederated, how an admin got doxxed, fedihistory etc
(New) This sub’s intentions is to an archive/newspaper, as in preferably don’t get into fights with each other or the ppl featured in the drama
Read The Parable of the Nazi Bar.
How is this relevant?
Did you read the alleged offending text? It’s not transphobic, let alone Nazi.

Sorry, who is Leni?

But this is definitely not the case.

Leni is another hadnle that’s easier to spell

How have I done any of that?
I don’t think you are trolling. You are just off. Hence why I do not support you being censored.
You should have the ability to express yourself if this is your real opinions. Content itself is clown grade tho
May I ask how so?

This covers your body of work extensively.
For me personally, seeing youu take these asinine positions while getting your panties bunched over st Luigi doing lords work.
There not logical coherence to much of it either, well except for bootlicking the rich

Your record speaks for itself dear but I never demand you being censored
In a world where misinformation justifies itself that way and where you have indeed existentially rallied against me on multiple occasions, both parts of what you just said are debatable.
That’s how a discussion works
People can make up their own opinions based on what is presented
A statement which directly challenges and is challenged by your earlier one that “my records speak for themselves”.
Correct. Your content borders on incoherent at best.
For someone who so often brings up the power of discussion, if that was a concern of yours (it isn’t an issue a lot of other people have), I’m surprised you aren’t one to simply ask “what does X part mean” when you are stumped.
