This guy is literally messaging people after he gets downvoted because he doesn't like the word "Bro".

"Bro" was literally used as an expression of disbelief.

from atomicpoet @piefed.social

You’re receiving this message because I consider the word “bro” to be offensive, and I noticed you downvoted my request that a commenter avoid using it.

I want to politely ask that you not encourage language or behaviour that could bring toxicity into !fediversenews@piefed.social .

This is a friendly warning. If it happens again, I will have to issue a ban.

They're still considered the reference community in that field

The post mentions me in the title, but the only part of the massive body actually involving me is me answering a question about why I was temp banned for downvoting comments I disagreed with

More posts discussing the fallout:

Dbzer0 admin claiming Uyghur genocide is ‘overblown and misrepresented’

Dbzer0 admin casually defending Uyghur genocide denial because “libs worse”, yikes

Banned from meanwhileongrad for “No db0 allowed”.

On Dbzer0, ‘harassing mods’ is when you criticize the top admin of .ml for responding to a Wiki link with a Lemmy search

Out of those 4 posts, 3 were made by you, I didn't check the whole list

Again, the body doesn't discuss me despite mentioning me in the title; my posts are linked to, but why you would link to someone else linking to my posts without comment as an addendum while discussing someone else instead of linking to my posts - since the end result is the same, except for the extraneous association with another argument - is deeply questionable.

This is not unlike when you repeatedly attempted to link me to the 196 move despite having nothing to do with the move.

So that people can read the several comments you made in that thread, as well as the dbzer0 users answers.

I updated my comments there, as I said at the time: https://lemmy.world/comment/18437409

Bringing up that point when I corrected it seems "deeply questionable" as well.

Your 'correction' attempts to make the same connection as the original claim, it was nothing more than adding weasel words.

[–] Blaze@lemmy.zip 0 points 2 days ago

I removed what was incorrect.

Adding weasel words

People will judge
