i was legitimately confused why i was getting zero replies in very active threads. and yes this is just a whine post about how horribly opaque fediverse moderation is these days

rule 1? rule 2? fuck if I know what I said that broke those rules, here's a ban that you don't even get notified about. i probably said fuck too many times. that's "not respectful".

This is an perfect example of the empty room fallacy also a pretty funny meme as well

Essentially the empty room fallacy is where you can't use any public social media platforms or say these things in public but you can say these things in a empty room. Is that still free speech. No that's absurd. The purpose of speech is to be able to communicate share ideas common interests to talk to one and another and to be able to challenge political ideas in a open and free manor and you can't do that on lemmyml. Not unless you want a 14 day ban for thought crime

Ideally we would want to sway away from what lemmy ml is doing even if that involves defederating
