I saw this post titled “Scratch a anti-harm reductionist and a fascist bleeds” (https://lemmy.world/post/33320759)

I commented that “harm reduction” apparently means sending billions in weapons to israel while they commit genocide and shutting down campus protests speaking out against that genocide. I said that seemed pretty fascist to me.

Within an instant, they downvoted my post and banned me. Guess it’s my fault for posting in a circlejerk community, but I’m still scratching my head on how that makes me a tankie. Something tells me this mod would be calling in the tanks to suppress any dissent if they could.

    No idea who Davel is but I have seen numerous bans by PugJesus recently for made up reasons. Usually “tankie” etiquette, by which he means anyone left of center, quite literally. Sometimes “sexual assault denier” by which he means people disagreeing with Israeli propaganda lies. To makes it worse he bans in unrelated communities because someone disagreed with him.

    He is not capable of being a moderator.

      Davel, who is an admin, does the exact same and is in this very thread.

        I can’t comment since I haven’t seen any bans by him. Not sure how it is relevant here either.

            Ok, clearly not acceptable. But I still don’t see much relevance to this thread?

              I’m just making sure you agree that Davels isn’t an ideal moderator too

                I glanced over and I am finding his views much more concerning.

                Still that is really not relevant. I am sure there is plenty of crap moderators out there. I am finding PugJesus particularly bad after revenge ban in unrelated community after an argument in completly different community. He should be removed straight away after that.

                    Thanks, I believe it was the right decision. Funnily enough, I don’t have many issues with PugJesus views at all. It is his moderation which is a problem.

                    Pretty much opposite to the other example you gave where I have major issues with this person views. His moderation merely follows this ideological pattern, that’s all.
