It's funny you say that, because almost every rebuttal I see from .world users is just ad hominem and refusing to engage with the extremely valid criticism.
You can disagree about voting strategy all you want, but denial of genocide is fucked up and pretending democrats are anything but enthusiastic supporters is literally a dismissal of objective reality.
It’s funny you says that because in .ml, Hexbear and the other socialist instances, people are banned for just being “liberal” and “Blue MAGA”
You’re free to take your money elsewhere if you aren’t happy with how moderators chose to keep the discussion civil.
I don't recall commenting on the behaviour of any of those users, I was trying to say that the "attack the ideas" line is basically ignored when .world users try to engage with leftists, I never said the socialists were perfect either, forgive me if I implied as much.
And yes, I do have a problem with mods using their power to suppress dissenting opinions in order to deny genocide, I think that's an entirely reasonable position for me to take.
I have problems being called a Nazi.
Well don't be one. There's comments on here I can't see from people who have other comments on here that are perfectly reasonably stated, with sources, that seem to do nothing but dissent with your own opinion.
Makes me wonder why those comments were deleted. You try to censor free speech just because it doesn't agree with your own ideas and you're no better than Xlon Muxk
