I was hoping to be able to interact with this community and learn and share, but my initial responses have suggested this is sadly an echo chamber, and any contrasting views are not tolerated. I would have appreciated explanations and suggestions but having experienced nothing but lazy downvotes and little discourse I suggest this community is doing communism a great disservice. Shame. I will be blocking this community and will begin to suggest others avoid it for the above reasons.
I don’t know why you expected this community to endorse fascist slogans. Reconsider your revisionist stance.
My honest reaction:
I just downvoted your comment.
FAQ
What does this mean?
The amount of karma (points) on your comment and Reddit account has decreased by one.
Why did you do this?
There are several reasons I may deem a comment to be unworthy of positive or neutral karma. These include, but are not limited to:
- Rudeness towards other Redditors,
- Spreading incorrect information,
- Sarcasm not correctly flagged with a
/s.
Am I banned from the Reddit?
No - not yet. But you should refrain from making comments like this in the future. Otherwise I will be forced to issue an additional downvote, which may put your commenting and posting privileges in jeopardy.
I don’t believe my comment deserved a downvote. Can you un-downvote it?
Sure, mistakes happen. But only in exceedingly rare circumstances will I undo a downvote. If you would like to issue an appeal, shoot me a private message explaining what I got wrong. I tend to respond to Reddit PMs within several minutes. Do note, however, that over 99.9% of downvote appeals are rejected, and yours is likely no exception.
How can I prevent this from happening in the future?
Accept the downvote and move on. But learn from this mistake: your behavior will not be tolerated on Reddit.com. I will continue to issue downvotes until you improve your conduct. Remember: Reddit is privilege, not a right.
Honestly one of my favorite copypastas
It’s kind of nice that Lemmy doesn’t have karma though
True! I like have up/downvotes, but there’s no need for there to be karma that keeps it all recorded.
Fair enough 👍 have a gday mate
- defend the usage of a Nazi slogan
- refuse to elaborate
- leave
You will be desperately missed, please don’t go!
We don’t grieve your loss.
hey there champ, maybe look slightly to the right:
Rules for /c/communism
Rules that visitors must follow to participate. May be used as reasons to report or ban.
No non-marxists
This subreddit is here to facilitate discussion between marxists.
There are other communities aimed at helping along new communists. This community isn’t here to convert naysayers to marxism.
I had to look up your comment history, as I take the echo chamber accusation seriously. Wow. I’m amazed you weren’t banned. You waited a whole 12 minutes after asking for sources before posting this. If you’d waited 46 minutes, you would have seen the wikipedia text copy/pasted for you.
good luck out there
