    No idea why you’re being so vague…

    This?

    https://lemmy.world/comment/14592254

    Looks like a mod replied and then deleted so not sure what they said.

    But yeah, those comments don’t seem to violate .world’s TOS, and I have no idea why a mod would have deleted them. But mods can be stricter than the instance.

    I’m not sure why you’re blaming the whole instance for what one mod is doing.

    Edit:

    The thread title is “how to fight fascism” which is important context I missed earlier.

    So yeah, the first comment saying just “Luigi” could very easily be considered a call to violence. Then the next one say “did nothing wrong” also makes sense to remove.

      I took back comments that assumed it was a form of humor, which I would have understood, but the replies to me playing along threw out that context.

      My first reply was to ask “if that keeps the fascists away, what would keep Luigi away”, and that’s when I started seeing a lot of F-bombs and “more people should be like Luigi” type of responses build up. I even clarified my comment, giving what amounted to another chance. More F-bombs, more Luigi emulation replies, etc. I removed the more explicit examples head-on and gave a temporary response to the one that half-amounted as a meme, which was the “did nothing wrong” response, even looking at past comments from everyone.

        Yeah, once I noticed the post title it made sense why you removed the comments.

        But even without that:

        But mods can be stricter than the instance.

        It’s ridiculous that people leap to the “.world is full of pro-corprate fascists” because they disagree with a single mod.

        There’s more than few instances I dont like, so I’ve blocked them and never see them. I don’t know why people with the axe to grind against .world dont do the same thing.

        Edgy kids just want to find the line and then constantly put their toes over it and claim nothing is allowed because they personally crossed a line.

      I’m not sure why you claim I’m being vague when I directly quote an entire comment.

      You said “it’s against the terms of service, so the comment gets removed”. I pointed to a comment that did NOT violate terms of service, but got removed. You defended the instance with a faulty statement. All I did was point it out.

      And no, it wasn’t a call to violence. If the statement was “we need more Luigis”, then THAT’s a call to violence. Just saying “he did nothing wrong” is the same as saying you hope he gets a jury nullification. It’s just taking his side.

        “Luigi” was the response to “how do we fight fascism”…

        That is the context you were avoiding by not linking.

        This isn’t an argument, I’m trying to explain something to you.

          I wasn’t talking about the “Luigi” comment. I was talking about the “did nothing wrong” comment. The “Luigi” comment can be seen as a call to violence, but the “did nothing wrong” comment was just a sign of support, not a call to violence. And the “did nothing wrong” comment was removed FIRST.

          I fully understand what you’re saying. You’re just wrong.
