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 instance of a double standard I’ve encountered on that instance.

OP, it’s ml.
Most people have it blocked, but somehow you’ve made it a year on Lemmy and are still doing this.
Alright, alright. I’m the clown in this situation. I had a little bit of faith that i could reach some common ground with them, but I don’t think it’s possible
They’re probably a troll farm operation tbh
Hehehe, nooo. No, it is not. The ideology they adhere to attracts and ensures narrow-mindedness to survive. There is no pondering, experimenting of thought, consideration of others or other things. The dragon they chase is the happiness of all so long as everyone follows the ideology they do. Ironically, chastising those that don’t for being weak and narrow-minded. They’re not even sheeple, they’re following a shepherd that doesn’t even exist.
There are many ideologys like this around the world. Their values and ides can be vastly different, but that doesn’t matter. They attract the same people. What happens next is whatever ideology ensnared them first and that’s their life now, all others be damned.
You’ll never reach common ground with the kind of individual that bares these traits. So…
Why?
Why what?
Why did you want to find common ground? What’s the goal here?
Idk. I wanted to retain some faith in humanity; especially considering the point we were arguing on was pretty benign, so we could’ve easily reached an agreement on something.
It gives me a feeling of nihilism whenever some people are so adamant in their beliefs to not even entertain opposing views. It makes it seem all pointless.
Exactly
