I'm astonished at how sensitive the mods must be over there.

Apparently you're allowed to say whatever baseless slander you like about the eeeeevil tankies but the minute someone says "Hold up a sec, you claim to be anti-authoritarian and yet you support authoritarianism either explicitly or implicitly?" and they have to shut it down immediately.

Regardless, I think I made a pretty solid counterargument to the typical complaint about communism being authoritarian.

Mfers skim read the Wikipedia entry on Hannah Arendt and start thinking they're justified in slinging accusations about "muh authoritarianism" smh.

    Oh that's really weird, it's not showing up for me when I go into that thread? (Hence why I had to paste a screenshot of my comment and edit it into the image.)

    Looks like you're in a dum millenial contest but your opponent is me 💀

    Edit: If I type the hyperlink in your screenshot into my browser, I can access the comment - but it looks like it's only visible from the lemmygrad end or something? I wonder if federation works bi-directionally and one side has defederated but lemmygrad hasn't or something like that? Weird.

    Edit 2: Damn, this gets weirder. Different instances show different comments — some comments are consistently shown across instances, some comments only appear on certain instances, and the up/downvote counts are wildly different across the instances too. One comment will be at -5 on one instance and yet it will be at +7 on another.

      Does it say, 'removed by mod' on lemmy.ml?

      If not, it may be a bug or maybe you blocked the user? Blocking a user hides all comments that branch off from that user's comments.

      If it was removed by a mod, it could be due to the perceived call for violence. Depending on the mods location, that kind of thing can result in unwanted attention.

        This is where it gets weird.

        I'm using Connect on android and my instance is Lemmygrad.ml (which is what the app says I'm connecting via when I go to the thread) but when I copy-paste a permalink to the top-level comment my browser directs me to an instance that is discuss.tchncs.de (?) and my comment isn't shown nor is there a message stating that it's been removed.

        When I access the comment thread via my browser and manually navigating to it from lemmy.ml, I can see my comment in the thread (plus a lot more comments) and the vote counts for comments that span both of these instances are significantly different. The same goes for navigating to lemmygrad.ml.

          Okay. If discuss.tchncs.de has defederated from Lemmygrad, viewing the thread on their instance won't show any Lemmygrad responses. The fact that you get sent to the tchncs.de page is strange. The permalink (the rainbow web button) usually(?) takes you to the instance on which the post/comment was made. Here, that should be lemmy.ml. I could understand if the OP was using a tchncs.de account, but they're posting from kbin.social. I would have thought that the permalink would take you to the post on lemmy.ml but visible on kbin.social if it didn't take you directly to lemmy.ml.

          Is Connect a browser or a lemmy app? If it's an app created by a tchncs.de user, maybe the default permalink is through that instance?

          Either way, it doesn't look like it's been removed. It looks like you're being redirected to an instance that defederated from LG. If tchncs.de is federated with LG, that's even stranger and I'm all out of ideas.

          Yea I have the same problem with the Connect app of it not showing all comments in a thread. Unintentionally 💀 post but I don't blame you cause this app is pretty good besides that problem.
