Oh, thanks. That's surprising & unexpected behavior.

Don't mentions go to people's inboxes?

When you make a report, the first mod who comes across it deals with it and clears it, and none of the other mods’ time is wasted on it.

When you @ all the mods, all the mods are alerted and everyone's time is wasted, because you think you're the main character.

FUTO isn’t open source, and the community in question was [email protected], making FUTO offtopic.

I was at a shitty crustpunk bar once getting an after-work beer. One of those shitholes where the bartenders clearly hate you. So the bartender and I were ignoring one another when someone sits next to me and he immediately says, "no. get out."

And the dude next to me says, "hey i'm not doing anything, i'm a paying customer." and the bartender reaches under the counter for a bat or something and says, "out. now." and the dude leaves, kind of yelling. And he was dressed in a punk uniform, I noticed

Anyway, I asked what that was about and the bartender was like, "you didn't see his vest but it was all nazi shit. Iron crosses and stuff. You get to recognize them."

"you have to nip it in the bud immediately. These guys come in and it's always a nice, polite one. And you serve them because you don't want to cause a scene. And then they become a regular and after awhile they bring a friend. And that dude is cool too.

And then THEY bring friends and the friends bring friends and they stop being cool and then you realize, oh shit, this is a Nazi bar now. And it's too late because they're entrenched and if you try to kick them out, they cause a PROBLEM. So you have to shut them down.

And i was like, 'oh damn.' and he said "yeah, you have to ignore their reasonable arguments because their end goal is to be terrible, awful people."

And then he went back to ignoring me. But I haven't forgotten that at all.

The community’s rules are not all of Lemmy’s rules.

.
If you’re looking for a Nazi bar, I suggest you look elsewhere.

Do you know what ableism vs an insult vs a slur is…?

If you're an expert on these things, then your litany of abuses must have been made knowingly:

Instead of lecturing others, I suggest educating yourself, before you catch a ban.

I didn’t use ableism, and the other stuff has no rules here.

There are in fact rules about them.

We, the Taiwanese people are the original China. Before China changed the characters and language and destroyed thousands of years worth of heritage.

Characters that no one could read, because the vast majority of people were illiterate peasants living under pre-industrial feudalism and suffering from frequent famines.

My parents and the older folks still dream about taking back the mainland Taiwan. The KMT party here tries very hard to make it happen.

The KMT are fascist.

Yes, that's what I'm saying. And the quote was from said Masto instance. He wasn't talking about setting up a new instance. He was recommending an existing one, answering the poster's question.

Reading comprehension fail. It's a quote from the toots.matapacos.dog Mastodon instance about its goals, in answer to a question about asked about Mastodon instances.

Considering that you’ve made it your life's mission to convince world to defederate from ml, I can't say I'm surprised that you might mischaracterize the comment.
