    I get you’re coming at this from a free speech angle, but yeah, I don’t think flaming is helpful. With more users, and more experienced mods, I think this issue will reduce and you’ll be able to offend more people with less pushback 😂

        So you’re calling someone a removed, but the point isn’t specifically to offend people?

        Maybe it’s time for you to learn that it’s not your intentions that count, but your actions. And your action in this case is definitely offending someone because they don’t agree with you.

        The proper response would be to just say why, in your opinion, both sides are the same isn’t the case, and why you think it’s a bad take on the situation.

          I’m the offending commenter, the “victim” of @Antik’s antics. I certainly took no personal offense to a stranger calling me a silly name on the internet, but I do agree that such actions should not be normalized, simply because ad hominem attacks add nothing to a conversation and only serve to derail what could otherwise be a healthy discussion.

          So, @Antik, I don’t agree that you should’ve been banned, but you clearly showed an unwillingness to have an honest, open discussion, and that is most likely why you were hit with the banhammer.

        Your edit only proves even more that you have worms for brains

        Also this instance doesn’t have downvotes. it’s just nobody is upvoting you at all

              Is here on Beehaw get the features enabled on Beehaw, regardless if the poster’s instance has ones not enabled here. So you wouldn’t get downvotes over on here. But lemmy.ml has then it seems. You may even have downvotes over there that you wouldn’t know about here! Fedi is weird sometimes…

                They’re on Lemmy.one which also doesn’t do down votes. But all around, good description of how a federated voting system can be odd
