Chinese propaganda is rampant on the fediverse. We need to discuss ways to combat this. One group- memes or something is wholly controlled by Chinese state actors. What do you think?

    You don’t get banned on hex, grad, or ml for it either, either. People should really check the mod logs a few times daily.

      Okay… From the last couple days.

      Removed Comment He’s also either blackmailed or employed by china (multiple visits including his honeymoon, where he spent the night not with his wife but in the room with a number of school kids that he also brought with him… On his honeymoon) by NihilsineNefas @slrpnk.net reason: Misinformation

      mod Removed Comment There are lots of countries, including all the western countries where fewer people answered affirmatively to that question, where people are far more free to express their opinions than in China, though. The most obvious reason being that the majority of the world’s countries do not have a Great Firewall. This is what shows that there is a bias in the Chinese answers – or possibly a bias the other way in the western ones, but either way it means the results are not meaningfully comparable. edit: > What’s happening is that working class speech is relatively free, while capitalist and corporate speech is not. That’s why the vast majority say they have freedom of speech, while we know the state censors private, capitalist speech. “I don’t want to work the 996 work week” is the epitome of working class speech, whereas supporting it is corporate speech. China chose to censor it. by turdas @suppo.fi reason: misinformation

                accusing people on .ml of brigading a .ml comm

                you clearly didn’t want to be there and were making it everyone else’s problem so I don’t see what’s wrong with banning you

                video link

                I can’t confirm, but the message makes me think it’s because the community doesn’t allow video links as posts

                Elon Musk is a nazi, I don’t think anyone disagrees, but it was because the post directly linked to a video rather than an article that it was likely removed.

                My concern is about today’s political and security situation, not that of 200+ years ago

                You were minimizing past genocides of indigenous people simply because those have already been completed. You deserved the ban, and it was temporary.

                  I really couldn’t care less. If they want to mod someone for criticizing authoritarian regimes, there’s no point in being there. You can’t say I didn’t try.

                  That is untrue. I never said it. And for the record I only believe in hitting military targets and those of politicians and military officials involved in the war.

                  Also I think you are cherry picking. They have censored me more times than that. Maybe it was on my now defunct lemm.ee account.

                  I didn’t use those words. Stop putting words in my mouth. If you can’t make the case with the words I actually said, you can’t make the case.

                  I mean taking out oil facilities, energy facilities, government facilities, and homes of politicians and military leaders who support the war. But in St. Petersburg and Moscow.

                    what does Ukraine gain by hitting civilians?

                    it’s the only thing that Russia will understand

                    So we are using your words, you just don’t like how people react to what you are saying.

                    I mean taking out oil facilities, energy facilities, government facilities, and homes of politicians and military leaders who support the war. But in St. Petersburg and Moscow.

                    This goes back to those that think it’s okay to blow shit up if it belongs to the bad people. Also see how Israelis see their neighbors
