The original post by @spujb@lemmy.cafe was a woman wearing a shirt that says “Italians do it better”. Someone asked what they do, and drag explained the joke as best as drag understood the intention, though drag disagrees that Luigi killed that CEO. It’s not a call for violence, it’s an explanation of a joke. Other people interpreted the joke the same way.
Less than an hour later, Flying Squid banned drag for that explanation, and for saying Luigi is not guilty. According to Flying Squid, referencing the CEO shooter case and saying Luigi didn’t do it is a call for violence. Expressing support for Luigi Mangione is a bannable offense on LemmyShitpost.
EDIT: The Picard Maneuver responded to drag’s appeal and reversed the ban. Drag will be deleting this post as it is no longer relevant to the current state of affairs on Lemmy Shitpost.
Chozo saw the comment notification and thought for a moment that you were Drag explaining himself.
Fuck, it’s contagious.
You used the reflexive pronoun “himself” when the last pronoun you had used previously was “drag”. That’s not proper grammar. You’re supposed to use a reflexive pronoun to refer to whoever you just referred to a minute ago. And you certainly weren’t using “himself” to refer to drag, because drag isn’t a him.
