The mod banning these users is the same mod who made the posts they downvoted. This is mod abuse, turning the downvote button into an auto-self-ban button.
The message is “If you disagree with me, you will be banned”
Monitoring and banning users for using lemmy as intended to signal boost your opinion should be grounds to have all mod privileges removed. This behaviour undermines the integrity of the server and the wider fediverse.
The more you try to dismiss questions that challenge your worldview, the less sympathy I have for you being banned from that community.
You are being given all the chances possible to show that you can engage in productive conversation, yet here you are showing how much you care about nothing but yourself.
And you are describing people using their single votes as they see fit as “authoritarian”. You’ll forgive me if I don’t engage in your magical reality. Any conversation with you would be unproductive by virtue of you being involved.
Go and wave your impotent rage in someone else’s face.
No, I’m talking about individuals that feel justifying in imposing their worldviews on minority/dissenting groups.
Projecting, much? I’m not the one saying that it’s a good use of my time to be shouting at everything I don’t like, and a quick look at your profile shows nothing but you being upset at other people.
Hey man, you’re the one who turned up a day late to a thread with nearly 300 comments, didn’t read shit and made a b-line for the OP to make frankly fucking deranged accusations about authoritarianism, while inferring you somehow know the ‘kind of person’ I am on the inside.
Respectfully, bother someone else with your crackhead bullshit.
