That's horrific.

What about china's communism and capitalism?

What are your opinions on it?

I'm not explicitly anti-communist. I'm suspicious of them because communism is unrealistic.

I did stop replying, but then Communist started DMing me. There were also the reports on him, and by him.

It's a bad idea for a mod to block a user, because then I'd never be able to see anything they do.

Besides, it's always a temp-ban, it isn't even active anymore

Normally I would, but can't as mod.

It's not so much a negative bias, but moreso that a lot of tankies call themselves communist as a way to weasel out of their extremism. -- I'm not a tankie, I'm just a humble communist, honest!

Multiple users made reports on him, and he also made reports on them. Most of which are 'arguing in bad faith' -- Both of them. What would you do when a user doesn't understand stop or move on?

It's because you continue to argue with users even after they've asked you to stop. You've had multiple reports, and you've also made multiple reports of your own.

If you're reporting the person you're arguing with, and they're also reporting you, then it's not very productive, is it? So to satisfy your urge to argue, I engaged with you until you said nonsense about what Marx said, and I countered with a direct quote from him. But despite that, you ignored it and changed your phrasing, and made a thread to brigade, as you often do.

And all bans are temporary anyway, even now you're unbanned and free to resume arguing. Bans on the community work with a warning first, then a ban, but bans only last 24 hours, and each subsequent infraction doubles the amount. You may request an unban at any time, which you never did. No other community on Lemmy is as lenient. None of your comments are removed. I also get a lot of DMs and a lot of harassment from Tankies, they've even tried to dox me a few times. MOG is the only active community that stands against them, and I've seen every method they use, which you are using. From the community's perspective, you are one of these tankies, and as moderator, I have to put the community first before a single user.

You also messaged me 15 different times to continue arguing, often within the same 24 hours of your ban. What do you expect me to do when you ignore your ban, just to argue directly? What do you expect me to do when you report every user you're arguing with? What do you expect me to do when you don't know what no means? You can't control yourself. As I said multiple times, you're not looking to argue but instead to harass, which you are right now doing by making this thread.

You are a sealion. You were banned for harassing multiple users. And the fact you report them when they argue back shows that you don't actually care to engage, but just to sling mud. -- Again, you're unbanned with no comments removed

well said. unfortunately they dismiss it as western propaganda

Horseshoe theory

also funny how tankies have no political group in the modern day they can celebrate. they're stuck in the past because communism died a long time ago.

no, no, listen here, LIBERAL.

it's not terrorism because they only targeted evil people! Like twenty-year-olds and hijacking an aeroplane.

can you edit your initial comment then? It got reported

You're not saying the holodomor was justified, are you?

Oh, well, actually, i take back what I said.

They don't legitimately believe in what they say, rather, they're in too deep to admit fault.

tbh I'm not sure if all extremists are crazy, but instead misguided or too deep in a cult mentality to get themselves out of it.

Like there's a logic in saying there are evil groups of people in the world, but not so much the 'therefore we murder everyone' part.

i recommend just insta-blocking whenever you see an alt. Don't even give any recognition.

Nah, not sure if they're a tankie. Just a crazy

Why hasn't lemmy cafe IP banned him yet?
