I was slandered by @yogthos@lemmy.ml, (called a fascist) for exposing the censorship that goes on at lemmy.ml. The mods deleted my replies and Yogthos replied to me with my own reply image. Not only pathetic, but unoriginal.
It’s obvious to me now that Dessalines, Nutomic, Yogthos — and who knows who else — is controlling the narrative by heavily suppressing anyone they disagree with.
I see now there are many “smaller” but more active communities outside of lemmy.ml. Definitely felt like coming out of Plato’s cave once I started joining similar communities outside of the “ml” world.
Anyway, just thought I’d share my experience.
Better yet don’t block. Instead downvote every thing they post or comment.
According to their group it is perfectly acceptable to coordinate and upvote each other’s posts because they like each other’s content. They say it’s not vote manipulation.
If you say anything bad about them they will brigade you so best to just downvote and not comment.
So why, if almost everyone dislikes their content, are we not downvoting them?
