Just wondering what the limit is on rule 2 as I see things like covid vaccine effect questions, what scams are still around and other spicy topics. Don’t want to make anyone upset but it seemed odd.

    How do you figure? I have not even commented on any bullshit, just want to know if and how I can without being approached by pickforks. I would also be asking questions if it was the other way around.

      I’m the only hexbear in this post. There’s no pitchforks yet.

      The post removed misrepresented itself, the premise being they had a bad time on a post on hexbear wherein they were reprimanded for anti-homeless rhetoric. you are now trying to relitigate this, adding yet another needless layer to everything. Why?

        You both seemed to have made a big deal of it them here and you guys on dunk tank. I was am just trying to figure out why one gets pulled right when people started to engage with it and the other is still up. I think they did answer my question satisfactory so I would say that was the reason why.

        Also what is a “volcel police” as I am not down with hippity and the hoppity?

          we enjoy it as much as you, I don’t think we’re the ones stoking the flames here though.
          the “other one in the dunk tank” is hosted on the hexbear instance, not here on asklemmy.ml, they’re not run by the same moderators.

            Oh I get the different instances and mods at play, and I would have made a similar post over on hexbear asking about it if the situation was reversed. I might feel my brain cells dying when reading stuff on the dunk tank but I still think people should be aloud to make posts.

              the premise was bad and facilitated inflammatory interaction, just as with this post, and was removed. I don’t see the issue here

                  I am implying that you’re continuing an already dealt with problem, that being an unnecessary complaint about a necessary mod decision on another instance. What’s up with that?

                    The point of places like lemmy is to do just this? I get we are just going back and forth here but I asked a question (that was answered yes) not make a complaint. I don’t think making a complaint was wrong ether (hence the question). You can stop responding whenever you wish, as can I, and I don’t have an issue with communicating with you but somehow you seem to find it a problem?

        ‘Anti-homeless’ = they said the transit authorities should crack down on people smoking meth on the train and who generally make commutes unsafe and uncomfortable for passengers.

        Are you people going to chase this poor person all over this damn site? Get a grip lol.

          No, thats not what they said. They used specific words and they provided an entirely different meaning. You’ve even replaced very important keywords.

            Give us the quotes then. You are interpreting them in the worst possible way, rather than how the average person who has to commute would.

              It wasn’t drug users. It was homeless people. It’s in the screenshot that’s on this forum. He said they should be chasing homeless people off the trains. “Clarification” was later. It was pointed out to him homeless people and drug users aren’t even one and the same (a poor mistake I saw you made in your comment as well).

              If you didn’t even see the comments, why are you defending them? You’re interpreting them (oddly without having seen them I guess) in a braindead way to assume no malice or negativity were in the comments.

            I’m the person who commented this. I took the train in LA for a long time since I want to stop using cars. My experiences there with the lack of security made me realize why hardly anyone takes it. My problem was with the smoking meth part. All I got for my trouble was someone accusing me of not really living there and a ban before I could explain myself.

            I’ve alread apologized about the way I said it and tried to clarify yet all I get is more hate and people saying to let them smoke it in peace. Hardly anyone wants to have a real good faith dialogue and instead just reactively dunked on me for uttering the word “homeless” for someone who is clearly doing illegal things in public. If a single adjective is enough to be considered inflammatory then I’m worried we’ll ever be able to have civil discourse that goes beyond an echo chamber.
