      Ukraine deserves more help : it’s a shame nuclear threat is preventing that. May you receive all the support you need.

    A heartbreaking post made by a true war victim was the first post here until it was deleted because …well, because of his dire situation. See, he let his heart speak too much and this … against a repugnant troll.
    He then said : “Please forgive my speech…” yet he was banned for a month from WorldNews.

    Moderation work is certainly challenging and yet … i would have hoped for a little more compassion for his situation, yes.

    Thank you for your concern.

    Un post déchirant fait par une vraie victime de guerre fut ici en tête jusqu’à ce qu’il soit supprimé parce que… eh bien parce que son auteur est en situation désastreuse. Voyez, il a trop laissé parler son cœur, et ce contre un troll répugnant.
    Puis il a dit : « S’il vous plaît, pardonnez mon discours… » et a été interdit pendant un mois de WorldNews.

    Le travail de modération est certainement un défi et pourtant … J’aurais espéré un peu plus de compassion, oui.

    Merci de votre sollicitude.

          I’ll mirror the response I gave you in the DM in the interest of transparency:

          I don’t know this user’s history, maybe the admin who performed the mod action has dealt with them in the past, I can’t say. But I kind of agree with your. I would have removed the comment immediately, but most likely would not have banned them.

      Ah yeah death threats are okay… did you actually verify their “true war victim” status or are you wanting to earn good boy internet points? Because Ukraine certainly does have a lot of “free” internet to voice out their “dire situation”.

        No official stance because why would we involve the instance itself into it? We have our personal stances, that’s it.

            We have specifically refrained from doing that that on Lemmy.ml

            In fact, there is an ongoing discussion on whether actual, patently false disinformation (climate change isn’t real levels of patently false) should be removed outright or if leaving them up would be more valuable because the community on Lemmy.ml has been pretty good about calling out a lot of misinformation, the argument for that being that pointing out that it’s wrong could be better than hiding it.

            Edit: I see you’re from Lemmygrad, and I also just want to mention that it’s a different instance with different goals and its own rules, so what I say doesn’t apply to that site, because I’m not an admin there.

          Only Putin’s own paranoia forced him to invade his neighbors. Now, they get all the guns they want. Keep your troops in your own borders, if you don’t a good old-fashioned proxy war.

      Ha ha! Russia manages to irradiate huge swathes of its own territory pursuing nuclear-powered nuclear ice cream. It’s not 1950 anymore. The Americans have railguns and plasma cannons. Wake up.

          Apparently the only way to get funding in the Russian military to slap the word “nuclear” on there. Bonus points for multiple instances. Nostalgia for the glory years, I guess.

          I doubt very much the US is scared. It’s seems more like a cold calculation, to let Russia break itself on the rocks of Ukraine. Plenty of US munitions get sold and no dead American soldiers on the evening news.

                I don’t love Putin, but reality has nothing to do with what you love or hate. I understand how the world financial system works, I understand how Russian economy works, and that’s what’s going to decide how the events unfold. Meanwhile, you built your whole identity around hating Russia and you’ve invented a reality for yourself where Russia is some incompetent petrostate that’s going to collapse.

                  I don’t hate Russia at all. I admire the Russian people. It’s Putin that’s created a mafia state, rewarding corruption that favors him, poisoning his rivals, and perverted the truth. Imagine what Russia could be with Kasparov at the helm. It’s like what could the CCCP have been able to accomplish without Stalin purging anyone with a mind of their own?
