Then removes the post itself for “misinfo”.

Suffice to say I think @OurToothbrush@lemmy.ml was just salty that I posted something that was not praising Russia, idfk what they were thinking.

What do you think, is me telling a regular that they’re not prescient, banworthy “chauvinism”? Power trippin’ bastard or nah?

    Should we use the acronyms here too? NTA, YTA, ESH, NAH?

    If yes: N[ot] T[he] A[rsehole].

    I wouldn’t be surprised if the thought process of whoever banned you was like, "NATO bad. NATO fights Russia, so Russia good. Russia good, so Russia wins. If you say Russia might not win, you think Russia bad. "

    Because it’s how the cookie crumbles in .ml: always oversimplifying complex matters and conflating predictions (what you did) with prescriptions (what could be called “chauvinism”).

    The fact that it’s a 30d ban is also relevant. Not just because your post is almost 30d old; but because, outside very specific situations, it’s a sign of powertripping.

        Got it.

        I love the idea behind the community, by the way. I could see myself using it from all the sides - as a mod, as a user who had an issue with a mod, or as someone just chiming in.
