Joined Lemmy because of permanent suspension from the Snoosite for harassment, which I clearly didn't commit at that time.
Yup, I also got suspended for a week for "harassing" someone for asking them for proof because they were being a bigot. She realized she couldn't defend it and reported one of my comments, so another bigoted mod banned and flagged my account. All of her nasty comments stayed up. Isn't Reddit great? Can't fucking stand that shit.
Don't blame the tool for the behavior of its user. You should try Stackoverflow. That place is toxically moderated...no, moderated isn't the right word. Gatekept. Ask one poorly worded question because you're trying to work something out and not sure how to phrase the question? Fucking amateur, you're banned! I moved to reddit to get away from the SO culture and I'm hopeful lemmy can fill that niche.
...and I too love challenging bigots. "Why" is a question they don't like hearing.
