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.

It’s apropos because it’s a similar mentality. Used to confuse and mask their speech to others. Using it ironically is also not the same as truly using it. Neutering it’s utility especially when people understand what it is. It doesn’t matter what anyone “claims” to be. You will know them by their actions. All you have to do is look and you will never see me pushing Han or white supremacy. Just calling it out.
