Got a 7 day ban on !memes@lemmy.ml after responding to this very abusive commenter with this image:

I reported their abusive comments somewhat expecting to get banned as well. It came as a shock to me when i saw my ban but this commenter got off scot-free. They didn’t even so much as get a single abusive comment removed.

This is the most blatant double standard I’ve encountered on that instance.

    from what I can tell your first post was literally ‘erhm this is logical fallacy’, and you got people making fun of you for that. You were looking for a response and you got it. Like I said I probably would have given given a timeout to both parties at the point where it’s just exchanging insults.

    Different people approach things differently and I’m not interested in getting into a slap fight with you.

          I disagree with people all the time on .world as well. The problem is thinking you’re somehow still right or rational when your views are so extreme that people defederate from or block your whole instance.

          It’s prim and pure delusion.

            Incredible bait. That’s actually argumentum ad populum; centrist extremists isolating themselves from opposing views doesn’t mean that their view’s correct, or their opposition is wrong, no matter how many of them there are.

                    Being in opposition to something doesn’t make you equivalent ideologically, also that’s a tu quoque fallacy, the same one you referenced in the original thread. We’ve come full circle.

                    I’m done responding here, @ me in a different thread if you’re that desperate for engagement.
