    Its awesome how these people can just make up bullshit and never get punished on their instance.
    I suppose thats a universal issue, but its still egregious.

            So we’re in agreement that one should not be banned for expressing a negative opinion of the USSR?

              there’s plenty of criticism of the USSR, Stalin, Putin in these spaces.

              people who are lazily ragebaiting and accusing people of being mossad for criticism of the US prison-industrial complex do get banned though

                Criticism of the USSR, Stalin, and Putin is deleted in ml instances. My deletion history proves it.

                The representation was inaccurate, as 80% of the 1996 US figure quoted were on probation, not incarcerated.

                It’s not lazy ragebaiting to verify facts, is it?

                And since you’re such an expert, which Lemmy user in particular, was insulted? Why is the mere assertion that one works on behalf of an intelligence service considered an insult by a disinterested observer?

                  Your deletion history proves that calling people “mossad psyops” while angrily flailing like a toddler gets you banned. The very same thread has plenty of others (attempting to) critique the Soviet Union without being banned.

                  This is like saying I got banned for arguing against racism on whatever instance that fucked up phrenology thread was at, while I in actuality got banned for being kind of rude.

      I’ve been banned for stating North Korea is an authoritarian shithole. Is that bullshit, in your opinion?

        Considering what shows up in the modlog about you, and how you presented the same situation, I’m quite certain you werent just some uwu smol bean who merely said a country was authoritarian. You might have more succes talking about how unreasonable moderation is on specific instances, if you actually tell the truth about what happened.
