I tried working with them, but they blocked me. I was investigating.
They won't see this, but I really was trying before I discovered I couldn't communicate with them.
I can't help if I can't talk to them.
Lies. I was banned from your cesspool before you sent the "friendly warning". Then your other mod buddy took further steps to harrass me and went and cried to .world admins to get me banned from the instance for a false claim of PM abuse. I posted the PM messages here for everyone to see that is clearly a false accusation and just discrimination based on my views.
Also, before you blocked me, you replied to my comment in a DM, as you had been banned ( I was still trying to figure out why you'd been banned at that point)
I tried responding that I was investigating, and that yes, calling dissenters fascists is bring uncivil. People don't become fascist because you call them that. Your attacks are reminiscent of Linkerbaan, who would call everybody that they disagreed with either a fascist or a Zionist. That's a bullshit insult.
First off, I didn't call anybody a fascist directly. Secondly the fact that you deem it uncivilized to call out fascism is a major problem. Mod abuse is also mods using the "be civil" rule to ban people according to their own personal agenda. You may not agree with me, but it's not grounds for censorship and banning. Public forums are for free exchange of ideas, not banning people for using words you don't like, especially when it's not even profanity. (Not that profanity should be censored either)
If you don't want people calling others fascists, then put it explicity in the rules so everyone can see you have a problem with that, and what it implies having that as a rule.
When do you think it's ok to call people fascist or zionist, if not when the people referenced are directly tied to fascism and zionism? Rhetorical.
When they are a fascist or Zionist.

This was my only issue, and again, I feel that a warning would have sufficed. Keep downvoting my comments, ~~but that won't make you less toxic~~.
EDIT: struck through the part where I vented. That wasn't right.
0 rules broken. There's no "gotcha".
I didn't downvote your last one, but whatever.
You want to talk about toxic to a guy who had his account banned from the community, then the entire .world instance specifically for sharing their views that a corrupt mod didn't like, who then abused their power?
No offence, but I don't see you trying to make things right. Not that I want to deal with the corruption of Political Memes and .world anymore, anyways, but it's the principal that matters. Ciao
