Some real joker shit happening in here.

    The way I see it, if someone doesn’t “fit into” lemmy.ml, you can always say, “hey, go to join-lemmy.org and find an instance better suited to you or start your own” And they will find wolfballs. It’s right there on that site, it’s not hidden or anything.

    But lemmy.ml itself is an instance that claims leftism and a ban on bigotry. And plugging wolfballs in the comments violates that. Like, if I made a racist blog about phrenology and then posted it in the lemmy.ml comments and said it was a super cool and inviting safe space for everyone…do I get banned? I never put the phrenology stuff in the lemmy.ml comments, so according to the line of thinking of the ban reversal, I would be cool to keep advertising away. And what it leads to is, you can say whatever rule violating stuff you want as long as you link to it in the comments and don’t type it in directly

    You don’t even have to look at it from a bash the fash perspective (though you should). Just looking at it from a purely debatebro “follow the rules” perspective, that account should be banned.

      That seems like a good solution.
