It’s not about my comments, it’s mods getting into debates over them and then promising to retaliate. I’m talking about a pattern with certain mods

Very telling how many people are hesitant to name specific mods.

I’m “combative” because everyone picks fights with me, because my political opinions aren’t popular here (I’m leftist, and end up arguing with a lot of transphobes as well). Mods shouldn’t use political disagreements as grounds for retaliation.

My modlog has so many taken down comments bc the other day I went through and quoted other ppls comments that were taken down, asking for accountability because I thought they were taken down unjustly. I still think they were. Mods have since mentioned to me ways I can link comments without quoting them, that won’t get my comments taken down.

Thanks for your creepy concern. My point stands regardless of my comment history, as evidenced by so other ppl sharing they have had similar experiences. Cool you want to discredit me due to my political opinions, and tendency to question the way mods operate.

It’s no different here, the dynamics are the same. Volunteer labor will skew towards the most privileged or retired bc they have more free time , not the most capable.

Sure, ignore men too. But sexism is real, a woman’s advice is more likely to be ignored or yeah, not asked for at all.

Let’s be real, probably her opinion.

When are you going to implement accountability for mods? I have reached out to mods/admins in the past to talk about issues w another mod. (mod FlyingSquid has said he would use his mod powers in a retaliatory manner due to disagreements, and I have seen many other people complain about them). Some mods/admins listened, another said basically to fuck off and they’d block me just for reaching out, considering me reaching out to be harassment. There is no accountability.

Relying on unpaid labor means your volunteers will skew towards the most privileged.

Yes, most but not all. Maybe like 80% are LGBT. I remember seeing some kind of chart showing that, maybe you can Google and find.

That’s so interesting omg. I feel like that’s just a really poorly thought out cover for disliking anything too outside the norm. Like people say the same thing about gay men too. But obviously, promiscuity is celebrated for straight men.

Honestly yeah, people bully them for no reason but they are just a bunch of nerdy gay people. Don’t hate.

Lmao had no idea. Switch weirdly seems to have alot of hentai games too.

I play switch just because it’s fun. It’s portable, got the cute little remotes. Have no interest in Nintendo games.

I never said anything about lawns. Neither does this meme.

Honestly, I am more concerned with our native grasslands which have been replaced by monocultures to support cattle industry. I’m not a huge fan of lawns either, but I care most deeply about our grasslands. However, native lawns can absolutely make a huge difference by supporting native pollinators and also by promoting botanical literacy. I suspect most people can’t name one native grass, let alone tell the differences between them.

The fact that everyone interpreted this to be about their own lawns is interesting to me, and speaks to the ignorance people have around grass in general. Everyone here seems to assume grass=lawn turf.

If you can’t figure out what the opinion was, that’s your own reading comprehension issue.

Strong opinions push the discussion. If you don’t like it, I don’t care.

lol

You were never going to switch your lawn lol

Yes that’s my point. And bamboo isn’t native to Europe either.

No, bamboo would not be native to Europe. That’s like saying “There are rats in Europe. Therefore rodents are native to Europe. Therefore Capybaras are native to Europe”.
