PSA TO NCD USERS

2 years ago by nuke to c/noncredibledefense

I'm sorry some posts are being removed from this community. It is the actions of the Lemmy blahaj zone admins. There's nothing we can do to prevent this. I suggest changing your instance to a better one.

Update: Blahaj blocked NCD

ada 48 points 2 years ago

Blahaj zone admin here. There's quite a bit of confusion and misunderstanding in this thread.

No one is "selectively removing NCD content" or anything close to it.

What happened is that 6 months ago, CDRMITTENS was instance banned from lemmy.blahaj.zone over an anti Palestinian meme they posted. You can see the mod log for that here https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/modlog?postId=11419938. This meme conflated Hamas and Palestinians in general, and basically blamed Palestinians for their own genocide. Notably, the post also broke NCD rules 2 and 5, but wasn't removed by NCD mods.

As a result of CDRMITTENS being instance banned, none of their content reaches lemmy.blahaj.zone anymore. You can see that for yourself here https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/..., which shows that no content from this user has reached blahaj.zone. There was no selective removal or editing of content at play, because none of their content reached blahaj.zone to be able to selectively remove it.

tl;dr - It's just an instance ban, not selective moderation

No, but talking to the admins might've given you a better idea of why this was going down, especially considering one of the cases is an instance ban, not selective moderation.

Oh and instead of removing the post that violated your rules,

Anyone that posts bigotry gets instance banned.

I have no idea about NCD. I don't use it, I have no idea who posts in it, and it doesn't come in to it. Anyone that posts bigotry gets instance banned, and your most active poster, posted bigotry.

Your third link now links to the meme that got CDRMITTENS banned from lemmy.blahaj.zone. This meme breaks your own community rules, and conflates Palestinians with Hamas. It's outright bigotry

There has been a genocide, multiple genocides, on the Jewish people. That’s not in question here.

Yeah, it can’t affect you at all unless you’re on blahaj.

I did a quick skim of the most recent posts as viewed on blahaj vs as on sh.itjust.works, and checking the mod log on blahaj didn’t show any of the recent posts as having been specifically removed. There’s one user that was banned like 6 months ago whose posts don’t federate to blahaj but now is a weird time to notice it.

I didn’t check super deep into the logs though so I’m curious what specific posts have been removed, if any, and if OP tried reaching out to the blahaj admins about it.

If I understand right, they're upset that the blahaj.zone admins blocked content from CDRMITTENS on their instance. Blahaj admins can't remove content from a community hosted on SJW, but they can prevent content posted by individual SJW users from showing up on blahaj.zone

Personally I think nuke is making a mountain out of a mole hill. Blahaj admins can do whatever they want on their instance. I don't really care whether or not I can see content posted by someone who supports the IDF. I'd actually rather not see it tbh

Yes, the other way around would be impossible.

Blahaj banned CDRmittens 6 months ago, which would explain the discrepency between posts as viewed from there.

Honestly, they could very well decide to just remove the community on their end if they so wished.

Nuke, you sure that it's intentional removal? I've seen propagation issues on instances before -- like, two weeks back, my home instance, lemmy.today, was two days late on material from sh.itjust.works. In that case, resolved itself shortly after I posted to my local instance discussion community about it, so the instance admin didn't dig into it, but two days of delay definitely has something breaking somewhere in lemmy or on one instance or another.

Admins all over lemmy are antisemitic or anti-Zionist. I have seen users banned from lemmy.world for posting a link to the IHRA definition of antisemitism.

If you don’t toe the line of Israel = evil, but offer some nuance, the mods delete posts and ban users. Posts that are very much inside the rules.

There’s practically a nonwritten rule on politics and news communities all over lemmy, that threatens to ban anything Zionist or nuanced regarding Israel.

Of course it’s worst with the tankies from lemmy.ml, but lemmy.world is barely better.

While I do not have perspective on your interactions and can't speak for your experiences, blanket labeling everyone in the de facto Fediverse trans-folks instance as "unsavory" isn't really a great look.

Lemmy.dbzer0.com has a community aimed at highlighting this sort of thing, !yepowertrippinbastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com.

I'm personally not sure that it's actually a great way to deal with unreasonable mod or admin actions -- I'd favor general technical solutions like the spider I mentioned in this thread over having "name and shame" stuff where possible, think that name-and-shame tends to generate conflict. But I suppose that it does help people who might object to such actions, like lemmy.blahaj.zone home instance users in this case, be aware that they are getting a censored view and choose communities and instances accordingly. I mean, I'd want to know myself if my own home instance admin were silently removing content on my instance.

A community for your defence shitposting needs

Rules ::: spoiler 1. Be nice Do not make personal attacks against each other, call for violence against anyone, or intentionally antagonize people in the comment sections. :::

2. Explain incorrect defense articles and takes

If you want to post a non-credible take, it must be from a "credible" source (news article, politician, or military leader) and must have a comment laying out exactly why it's non-credible. Low-hanging fruit such as random Twitter and YouTube comments belong in the Matrix chat.

3. Content must be relevant

Posts must be about military hardware or international security/defense. This is not the page to fawn over Youtube personalities, simp over political leaders, or discuss other areas of international policy.

4. No racism / hatespeech

No slurs. No advocating for the killing of people or insulting them based on physical, religious, or ideological traits.

5. No politics

We don't care if you're Republican, Democrat, Socialist, Stalinist, Baathist, or some other hot mess. Leave it at the door. This applies to comments as well.

6. No seriousposting

We don't want your uncut war footage, fundraisers, credible news articles, or other such things. The world is already serious enough as it is.

7. No classified material

Classified ‘western’ information is off limits regardless of how "open source" and "easy to find" it is.

8. Source artwork

If you use somebody's art in your post or as your post, the OP must provide a direct link to the art's source in the comment section, or a good reason why this was not possible (such as the artist deleting their account). The source should be a place that the artist themselves uploaded the art. A booru is not a source. A watermark is not a source.

9. No low-effort posts

No egregiously low effort posts. E.g. screenshots, recent reposts, simple reaction & template memes, and images with the punchline in the title. Put these in weekly Matrix chat instead.

10. Don't get us banned

No brigading or harassing other communities. Do not post memes with a "haha people that I hate died… haha" punchline or violating the sh.itjust.works rules (below). This includes content illegal in Canada.

11. No misinformation

NCD exists to make fun of misinformation, not to spread it. Make outlandish claims, but if your take doesn’t show signs of satire or exaggeration it will be removed. Misleading content may result in a ban. Regardless of source, don’t post obvious propaganda or fake news. Double-check facts and don't be an idiot.
