I’m asking in good faith here, not trying to start a fight but if my understanding of the content that person posted is correct (abjectly transphobic) then why was their perma ban changed to a 2 day ban?

Frippa got two days for posting a statue with a dick, this clown posted hateful shit and gets the same punishment?

That doesn’t seem right at all.

If this was an accident fair enough but the mod log doesn’t give us justification for these decisions and it leaves it open to speculation and having their ban changed to 2 days seems sus af.

If this is something to do with lemmy vs lemmygrad then fair enough can that be explained please.

Thank you.

    I think @frippa@lemmy.ml is irrelevant to the discussion.

    I disagree with taking a soft stance against trans-homophobia. If the admin who took the decision can repost what the comments were then we can see if a temporary ban keeps LGBT people safe. But if the action was so bad it deserved to get the entire account’s history purged, I believe the moderation team has some severe miscommunication going on.

    This is surprising because I’ve found the admin team to make good decisions against reactionaries. This doesn’t look like a good decision.

      I reported two posts of mlcolo’s. Firstly: a meme in which Stalin and Lenin called Trotsky the homophobic f-slur. In the comments other comrades tried telling mlcolo that was not acceptable, and rather than take the meme down they just said they “didn’t write it” themself, they just copied the link.

      The second was a a tweet by a nazbol (nazbol was literally in the @) that said that disabled black trans women didn’t need to exist. That’s it. That was the post.

      Transphobic. Homophobic. And a nazbol.

      And I don’t, if trolling and abject transphobia warrant the same ban length aa trolling (which the modlog says) then that’s stupid.

      Whether frippa’s ban was justified is irrelevant yes but that’s not why I’ve mentioned them here, it’s the justification for both bans and their equal length of the ban that I’m highlighting here.

      Trolling admins: 2 days

      Homophobia/transphobia: 2 days

      Doesn’t make sense.
