I’m just baffled that i’ve been banned for this, I just wanted evidence that chinese elections are being rigged, and explained why that evidence was insufficient, and what evidence would be??

    I’m an Admin for 4 different public Fediverse instances, and I’ve banned fewer than 5 people for trolling in over 2 years.

    I agree that you were trolling. I would have banned you, as well, for sealioning.

    It’s your unwillingness to even try to understand. There’s a form of trolling, sealioning, where you ignore the validity and implications of valid points to keep the other saying the same thing until it all becomes frustrating noise. Squid’s default MO.

    YBA. You for giving Squid the opportunity to look right for once, and Squid because [gestures widely].

    PTB. The mod is banning someone because they’re not backing down. I didn’t see it as trolling to insist on the evidence of rigging. I do think you’re incredibly naive about manufactured consent, but I don’t think you’re trolling.

    Libs on lemmy are too trigger happy about anyone not immediately going jumping on a China hate bandwagon, and see every debate on the subject as trolling.

    Just a heads up, block pugjesus and flyingsquid and pretty much all of .world.

    There is no value there, they are pathetic far right liberals acting as mouthpieces for the US government.

          Nope, it starts at efforts that aim to provide easily accessible and readily available welfare to everyone in society which can be achieved under capitalism. Anti-capitalism is only a radicalisation of these ideas

            Nope, that simply cannot be done under capitalism, but you can get total control of the government in order to deregulate society by promising it, like liberals are want to.

            Anti capitalism isn’t radical, it’s the bare minimum to move forward towards an equal and equitable society, and nothing that cannot be achieved with capitalism.
