Lemmy.ml is right-out funny with its decisions sometimes, especially when it comes to politics. Write a couple of paragraphs of policital analysis going very much against tankie grain and use the word "muppet" once, "Deleted: Be polite". Meanwhile, people around you are throwing slurs at each other. Wisen up and avoid that and you'll get temporarily banned for "disinfo" for repeating something out loud that was written in the thread's article: No, Ukraine does not lay claim to the Russian territories it officially describes as "historically Ukrainian-speaking". The article said so, Ukraine says so, and never said anything else either.

Rules are only as good as the mods enforcing them, it's as simple as that.

I feel like people need an education about the difference between spirit of the law and letter of the law.

This comment reads like this:

"I posted some truly heinous shit and a mod/admin removed it but I didn't break any written rules therefore my right to force other people to be subjected to my desires was impinged upon😭😭😭😭."
