This is a community in the spirit of "Am I The Asshole" where people can post their own bans from lemmy or reddit or whatever and get some feedback from others whether the ban was justified or not.

Sometimes one just wants to be able to challenge the arguments some mod made and this could be the place for that.

Rules

Expect to receive feedback about your posts, they might even be negative.

Make sure you follow this instance's code of conduct. In other words we won't allow bellyaching about being sanctioned for hate speech or bigotry.


Some acronyms you might see.

Thank you for coming back, I see.

Have you considered maybe posting to [email protected] ? That would ensure that LW cannot have any influence

My primary objective is raising awareness for the Genocide. I always try to balance between reaching the biggest audience and communities which most need to be informed.

For example the best place to reach conservatives on Reddit would be r/Conservatiive, however posting anything anti-Trump there would instantly get you banned. Same with Lemmy.World being the best place to change peoples mind. If there's not a bunch of mad liberals in the comment section I'm just preaching to the choir. The fact that I was able to post there for so long was pretty astounding to begin with.

This however turned out to also be a downside because many people coalesced around LW and needed no alternative. I never expected the Genocide to go on for this long so I never tried to establish in a smaller community from scratch, as growing a smaller community would take far longer.

I occasionally posted to Lemmy.Zip before, they are great their reach is not nearly the same. I try spreading my posts around a bit more now because there's always a triggered mod somewhere. Thanks for reminding me of .Zip though! I kind of forgot about them again.

Indeed

In an ideal world, people upset with the MBFC bot would turn to the lemmy.zip community, but I'm not seeing this happening any time soon
