In theory, tax payer paid healthcare is a good idea. In theory.

    Admittedly I was because I caught on to the power tripping nature of this community’s mod.

    But that’s how they want to run it so I’m back complying like a good little user and am just going to keep my thoughts to the comments section where that’s allowed.

    You see, conservative opinions only work when being broadcasted while burying out dissenting voices. If those voices are too loud, too many people may not agree with conservatives.

      It was only because you kept violating the rules. Only lefties think being a mod on lemmy is a powertrip. My power is in the real world, not here.

        Oh I absolutely did in that instance, but both things could be true. My posts were getting deleted in a manner of several seconds, WAY too quickly for you to actually investigate the content of my posts.

        I’m not even sure I’d be allowed to keep any post up anymore regardless of political leaning considering how hasty you were to quiet down anything I provide. That is a textbook example of power tripping.

        I’m back and apologized to you because at the end of the day, you are free to run your communities (and make your echo chamber smaller and smaller) however you want. As long as you’re here, I’m game to do whatever I can to provide another perspective on things.

          No I’m this case only one thing was true.

          I’m not even sure I’d be allowed to keep any post up anymore

          As long as it follows the rules I won’t remove it.

          , you are free to run your communities (and make your echo chamber smaller and smaller) however you want and within the rules of the instance. That is why certain words are banned. The larger instance overrules any rule we have.

            We can go back and forth over what really happened but it’s a losing exercise. I admit to breaking the rules, but assert whether you agree or not you were power tripping while doing so. I’ve seen you do that elsewhere in this community.

            Thanks!

            Wait which words are banned? Just so I know how to not get banned again. I had no idea there were trigger words.

              We delete posts containing slurs such as N*, R*, etc.

              The admins have their own criteria based on r1 and r2.

                Oh good thing I don’t use those then :)

                That’s basic decency, I can appreciate that.

                  I have a message board I run and we only ban the N word. That is because an idiot liberal kept saying it for God, knows what reason. I didn’t ban him. Just the word.

                  We were all on another board, and they shut down the politics section. So I created a discourse to allow everyone to keep in touch during covid.

                    By liberal do you mean neolib or anyone left of center? Cause I don’t think I’ve ever heard anyone left-leaning actually say it.

      I wasn’t following y’alls conversation and I’m Not interested in having a political discussion either. I’m sick of politics online and I don’t want to see it or talk about it all the fucking time.

      Not sure what u mean nor am I gunna puck it apart and argue. Obviously I disagree. I consider myself conservative, and also an instance admin and I don’t feel the need to ‘take action’

      Yall both honestly need to chill out lol calm down. Try to connect as just people dude not I’m a this and their a that.

      Yall aren’t gunna agree on shit so come on lol stop fighting eachother.

      I mean you do you, this is just how it is with political shit. It’s annoying. Anyway idk drink a beer

        I’m sick of politics online I am tried of it creeping into any discussion. There is a time and place for politics but not everything is political.

        I like my Tesla and people act like I murdered someone.

        If you’re sick of politics online, why are you engaging in a political community?

        I’ve made many good faith efforts with this person to have rational discussions and have even agreed with them on some points. Unfortunately they melts down and uses straw man arguments when proven wrong, sympathizes with sexual predators and victim blames consistently.

        Apologies if it offends you, but you don’t have to be here either. I sense a lot of hostility here from dissenting opinions, it seems to be a trend.

            Well this a more political forum. My issue is it creeps out into everything. That’s what I find annoying.

                Depends what it is.

                Outside of this forum, I generally don’t talk politics. Yet, creepy stalkers will follow me to try to talk politics in unrelated forums.

                So what do you like to talk about? I like guns. I’m not a gun nut but I’ve been around them all my life, carried on the police force and military. I like to read a lot. I watch a lot of movies. Haha. Maybe we need topic on non-political discussion for conservatives

                  That’s a good idea I think I’ll make a community like that. That’s those are cool interests.

                  I like tech, learning and finding new social media protocols, apps, AI apps, clothes, gadgets, robots, ai, funny and stupid questions, movies to definitely horror movies

                    I don’t play a lot of games but I love fallout. I’ve played it since it was wasteland.

                    I love horror movies. Also move that are just different. John wick. All started because of a dog
