notice how there still isn’t a meta tag because it would make the post a lie :) that’s because i use the internet to have fun and participate in community, not to let mean users boss me around because they know how to use insults. blocked.
ps i made an actual meta post you should go leave your comments on it.
I think I would be 100% fine with this progression if there had been a meta post. Your instincts are good they just have some holes.
heard but no. it’s not a meta post as it clearly is about actions that happened before whatever is described in the other post, and outside this community.
you seem confused about what meta means; meta posts are about the community itself.
thank you for your input but if i added the meta tag it would make this post worse, not better.
That user wasn’t responding to anyone directly. It was an untargeted reply, its “call to action” was not to any user or even a political or public figure. This makes 100% of the difference, and it’s why your post is being received poorly.
If you are uncomfortable with that kind of comment or imagery that’s totally fair and you can block and report. But it’s obviously silly to act like that comment is in any way a safety concern.
fully agree! especially the part about it only being in a single community thats a key fact i should have mentioned :)
Yes. We agree. The admin has a right to address the issue they perceive. And as I said right after, users have the right to know that this is the swift, emotionally charged, and overbearing due process that the admin may choose to implement.
If there were any written rules or good faith communication of instance standards I would not be making this post.
haha :) if the post gets taken down i’m fine with it but i maintain its relevance to community dialogue. i also notice you have dropped your initial claims that “it’s unmarked meta” because of course that claim was never a true criticism.
i am here only as a reporter of behavior. i don’t even know what “punitive reaction” you are talking about. (oh i got some downvotes somwhere? well this post got some upvotes so…)
to me, a threat of a sanction is just as valid subject to be commented on as a sanction. previously, i have also created posts about admin inaction (dereliction) entirely and the posts were also left up, which leads me to believe community mods are with me. here’s an example: https://lemmy.cafe/post/12745277
(unblocked obviously, because you are funny)
