Using your mod powers to decide who is allowed and not allowed to speak is not very anarchist of you, @mambabasa@slrpnk.net

    @mambabasa represents themselves, and in so doing elevates anarchism as an ideology that celebrates the lived experiences and politics of diverse sets of people

    Your impression of the reception they’re getting within the wider community is not at all the same as mine. I think they’re doing anything but elevating anarchism as an ideology. More than a couple of anarchists have felt the need to chime in within the comments unprompted, to make clear that his actions don’t represent anarchism as they understand it.

    His gentle 10-day bans

    If you think the length of the ban is relevant at all to my continued participation in those spaces, you’ve misunderstood my reaction here significantly. I only learned I was banned when I went to unsubscribe. That was before I learned that the whole Slrpnk team seems to be in favor of this as a moderation philosophy.

      You used to be mozz@mbin.grits.dev, right? Ponder.cat’s stylesheet looks nice. How does Lemmy compare to MBin from an admin perspective?

        oh fuck. yeah. no way they should be in an anarchist community anyway.

        they are not a safe person. their pattern of “investigating” other users is toxic as fuck.

        not too mention their conspiratorial “everyone is a trump supporter in sheep’s clothing” accusations every time they find a principaled disagreement.

        fuck them.

        Interesting, it’s been a while since I’ve seen that name
