OMC: I can't wait for the day I get banned from Lemmy

I think it will be a badge of honor. I'm not trying for it, but I'm also not willing to diminish my opinions. In my opinion, we are all humans, on a fragile planet that is dying more rapidly by the day. Putting up false barriers between us only highlights our primate origins. I'm not a chimpanzee, nor are you. We should dialogue.

Perhaps, with a rational dialogue, we can come to terms. If you can understand any of the words I just used.

That reads like a sentence directly out of r/iamverysmart.

Yeah, this is someone with an unjustifiably high opinion of themselves.

What the fuck are you smoking, fam? It must be some good shit.

Taking a toke of self-aggrandizement, a bit of "woe is me" and throwing a side-eye at "Karen".

Do you want a community ban or a instance ban? I can make your dreams come true!

Why not both? I've never been banned before.

You can't really be banned from lemmy, though, you can always just make another account.

Also, you can only get banned from one instance at a time, never lemmy as a whole.

How can they be a self-proclaimed developer who's acct is 3yrs old, and not understand that?

Ah, the halcyon days, with nothing to look forward to except open skies, grass and a kiss on a cheek.

I feel like my experience here is very different from most people's. I'm certainly not saying they're incorrect about what kind of interactions they have that are so off-putting, but I also block anyone and anything that takes away what little joy I can derive from this place.

I'm not here to debate politics or see what I should be mad about, or for people to tell me how to feel about X, Y, or Z. I've got plenty of that in the real world. I come here to escape from that with memes, jokes, and interesting shares. I get my news and current events, in moderation/healthy doses, from actual news sites (and block them here), and I stay plenty informed without a peanut gallery of people banned from Reddit telling me how to feel or knee-jerking to this or that (usually some form of violence).

My advice: If your encounters here are overwhelmingly from people constantly putting up false barriers (which is a charitable way to put it, I might add, and I may steal that aphorism), then I cannot recommend the "Block" button enough. Works for people, communities, and whole instances.

If that's not enough, maybe switch instances to one that's better modded from the top or provides a specific vibe. startrek.website is great for that if you're a Trekkie. Beehaw is, last I heard, also pretty chill and well modded though it's still less federated for reasons I don't even know still apply.

In response, in silliness, I will tell you a silly joke.

What is a pirate's favorite letter?

Most would think it's the Arrrr, matey.

But ye'd be wrong.

Because a pirate's first love be the C.

Lol, I tried my opinions, and then I got banned bc I questioned men. This place really ain't no different than reddit. :/

I banned you from AskMen for 7 days for breaking multiple rules, that is true. Feel free to check the modlog.

Thanks for responding to my late night despair posting though. It gives me a happy. :)

Can't find it? Can u send a link?

My account on Reddit had been banned by so many communities. Though I was usually trolling TERFs for the fun of it. I was especially mean to them. Terrible, in fact.

I’d rather be banned from a space for holding firm in my convictions than keep quiet so that I can remain a member of the club.

I mean you will really have to work at it considering how many instances there are. Also sounds like you need to use block. This space is a lot like an mmo chat. Easiest way to go is to peruse all and block as needed. I block sports and meme communities because I have no interest in them. Often times really niche communities if im not super geeky with the thing. And of course nutters. I mean climate change is a pretty popular topic on here so im not sure how you have had so many negative experiences around it.

I fully support the downvotes, keep them coming.
