Then you search them up and realized they were banned or removed doggirl-gloom

The sword of Damocles reminds me when, if I ever turn rightist once again, may the Hexbear ban-hammer me dead

    If you're talking about Bureaucrat specifically the account was deleted by one of the users because someone else kept getting into arguments with people or making weird comments that were catching bans from various comms.

          Awoo, I thought she was struggle seshing over Luigi Mangione lionization (on the side of lionization) (she ain't banned yet fully)

          Foucault, uh, IDK why

          Speaking over marginalized users and doubling down on harmful rhetoric in the Mod chat and a general history of debate pervert behavior.

          Awoo caught a temp ban and it was reversed almost immediately but proceeded to go after someone in DMs, Foucault according to the log was being a debate pervert in the mod chat.

              Yeah. You see two people creating a long-ass thread arguing back and forth and both of them refusing to calm the fuck down, but only one of them is supposedly a "debate pervert"? That's not how this works, and you should not be a mod.

              At this point I'm really close to just leaving this place behind. The vibes fucking suck.

                If two people having an argument and after a third party chimes in, someone recognizes they're getting too heated and uncomfortable, chooses to explain why they're uncomfortable and then take an extended break, I think that's valid. Removing yourself from an argument is fine. You can always disengage.

                If the other person in the argument then spends an additional two hours making wild, hyperbolic statements and doubling down in the face of multiple people trying to de-escalate, that's not a great sign. If that person has a long history of doing this, it's an even worse sign. Foucaults didn't get a ban for this one single incident of an unreasonable argument, this was just the straw that broke the camel's back for a user with a long history of starting and escalating arguments.

                The fact that users like a frauddogg can run around sephiroth posting like the protagonist in an action movie for divorced dads, but I can't tell people to suck my ass is incredibly telling. My issue is inconsistent moderation and favouritism.

                The moderation team reminds me of that years old video of the DSA meeting where people kept coming on with "point of order". The mod team are like the people who reduced Gloria La Riva to "a cis woman". They're the kind of people you hate to have in an org, the kind of people you suggest of being a fed because they follow the fed playbook to a T (which we can't point out here). It's rancid and it sucks and it's gotten really bad over just a few months.

                I'm sure these idiots are celebrating the fact so many news mega posters are gone, considering the fact several of them hate it is there. What I said in the old struggle session remains true, they're going to end up being on a site of 7 people where they blame 3 for being bigots that scare people away, never once stopping to consider if they maybe are the ones who suck.

              I only knew about Foucault from checking the mod log, I generally shy away from the struggle sessions because I left reddit to stop getting wrapped up in multi-day arguments with strangers.
