It says I broke rule 4 but I didn’t post any porn.
Update: The Issue has been resolved.
hexbear admin
looking through your modlog it’s kinda weird you got banned tbh, last removal was over a month ago for a meme that had obscure racist origins that need you to dig like 3 layers deep to know about
I looked through 8 days of titles and the comments that were banned under specific communities and I didn’t see anything that fell under the softer rule 4 code of conduct. I’m mildly confused too; even if I missed one thing that wasn’t gregarious isn’t there a warning system? I’ve been warned and corrected my behavior before.
hexbear hasn’t done warnings very often afaik, but yeah, very strange i wonder if it was in error?
You are unbanned now @Saymaz@lemmygrad.ml, you were site banned by accident
When you get siteban from another instance in the modlog it looks like you are banned from all the comms you have posted in, but thats just how lemmy site bans look like
@Saymaz@lemmygrad.ml if you look in the modlog now, you can see the explanation by Alaskaball, it was a misclick on the phone UI when trying to ban a different user.
Thanks.

Could be the rule 4 they’re talking about but I have yet to see any of that in a cursory six days glance. I wasn’t looking too hard though, I’ll look again.
I saw that in the hexbear modlog and was wondering what happened too.
It looks like someone (Alaskaball apparently) was doing some house cleaning because a bunch of older posts and comments were recently removed. One of them included one of your posts from a month ago: https://hexbear.net/post/7232184 which had a variation on a misogynistic slur in the title. That would be my guess as to the reasoning, anyway. And Alaskaball has been around as a hexbear mod for a very long time, I think since the founding and later became an admin.
Also I’m just curious about the screenshot you posted. Is that a view of something only mods can see? Because as far as I knew, it wasn’t possible to see which mod performed which action.
So I escaped reddit to experience reddit 2.0?
It’s in the lemmygrad modlogs.
I see it in the logs, but like the other user said, I don’t see the mod name in the logs. 🤔
It is showing in my client though
Oh, I bet you have an app client for it that is able to show that info, different than default. That might explain it. It’s probably info that is not really “private” but doesn’t get displayed in default interface.
I just downloaded the app Saymaz uses, Summit, but I still can’t see mod names with it. I’m almost positive it’s because Saymaz is a moderator too, which gives them privileges that non-mod users don’t have.
Strange. I wouldn’t think being a mod in one “community” would give that kind of access, since anyone can make one, right? But I don’t know enough about how lemmy works in general, I guess.
I tried looking a little more into it, and so far as I can tell, Saymaz should not be able to see who performed the mod actions. You’re right that them being a mod on lemmygrad should have no impact on their ability to see the mod name for a mod action on hexbear. Only admins and other mods for that comm should be able to see who performed the mod action. But it doesn’t appear to be something having to do with the app Summit either, which does abide by the lemmy protocol for not sharing the names of mods on mod actions. Which is the default setting, though instance admins can choose to share that information if they want, but almost none do, and hexbear certainly doesn’t. So I still really don’t get why Saymaz was able to see that it was Alaskaball. It’s weird.
Summit devs, could you just take a look on the issues before the next update?
Are you using an app? Is the screenshot from a moderator-only view of the modlog? Because yeah, as regular users, not moderators, using the website, we can see the actions in the modlog, but we can’t see what mod performed them. In fact I remember that being an issue of contention on hexbear, some people wanting to be able to see which mod did what, but the response was that it would create too much drama if users got to see which mod removed their comments or banned them.
I am using summit.
You can see them on some platforms.
Which? How? And in this case, Saymaz was using Summit, which I checked and Summit does not show mod names for mod actions (unless the user is an admin or a moderator of that specific comm the action happened on).
Kbin. They’re pretty open with federation too.
It’s okay, I got banned from hexbear / chapo for saying Slava Ukraine.
They’re just pissy little removed - > happy to ban people who are not they’re favorite flavor of perpetually online leftists familiar with whatever YouTube flame wars they follow that week.
Don’t worry - more time to read theory and develop praxis comrade

Actually, I think it’s a good thing Marxists on here engage in endless critique and “flame-wars” as literally instructed to do by most major theorists of Marxism (within reason, here). It’s how we actually refine proper takes and have political literacy beyond supporting an actual burgeoning Nazi-state that is being used as a tool for NATO imperialism.

я не из калининграда@lemmy.ml (not a native english speaker, I believe)
i do not support the current administrations internal actions, as capitalism has brought nothing but injustice, suffering, poverty, crime and corruption. but i absolutely do support its foreign policy, especially regarding the ukrainian question. the putin government has evolved to become one of the most effective anti-imperialist forces on the planet and even if you ignore the terrible nature of the terrorist zelensky-regime one has to be grateful to our military for fighting the biggest enemy of mankind, america.
so lets detail the happenings that led to the current situation:
(it may be important to note that the current russian administration pushes a slightly different narrative due to sadly being a right wing state)
banderite collaborators parading in front of nazi officers the banderites (see picture), members of the fascist “organization of ukrainian nationalists” led by stepan andreyevich bandera were a gang of rapists and murderers who collaborated with the invading german hordes and assisted them by conducting acts of terror against civilians. It is important to note that popular support for them was close to zero. after the victory of the heroic red army, the majority of those parasites fled to the west, predominantly to canada. they received funding from american and british intelligence agencies, which were more than happy to welcome “former” nazis into their own anti-communist ranks. another subset of the banderites remained in the ukrainian ssr and conducted a campaign of terror and sabotage against the civilian population. their bloody deeds were supported by the cia and its european puppet agencies through the so called “operation aerodynamic”.
spoiler


referendum on the preservation of the ussr. its results were ignored by the anti-communists
After the illegal and undemocratic dissolution of the ussr, the leaders of those fascist gangs were glorified by the ukrainian far-right, with support from the cia. efforts to further their “rehabilitation” were primarily directed by nazi expatriates in canada. outlets such as voice of america portrayed them as “heroes”. (aerodynamic, some of these were manufactured in the U.S under Operation Mockingbird like a lot of U.S state dept. bullshit)
election before cia intervention. this division between neonazi northwest and pro-russian southeast is visible to this day
in 2004, the west sabotaged the ukrainian presidential elections and installed their puppet, viktor andreyevich yushchenko, through a color revolution. he was a terrible leader, not only dismantling the remaining aspects of the ukrainian economy and managing to make life even more miserable than it already was, but also granting “hero of ukraine” status to banderite leaders and holocaust perpetrators stepan bandera and roman iosifovich shukhevich.
(not adding picture of 2014 ukrainian nazis since you have already said you believe in that)
in 2014, america and the west orchestrated another coup, this time not even bothering to hide the involvement of neo-nazis. the new regime perpetrated unspeakable atrocities against the russian population, whom it consideres “subhuman,” as well as against ukrainian anti-fascists. in odessa alone, 39 people were burned alive in the local trade union building.
those developments led to the revolution in the predominantly russian populated donbass-area and the creation off the donetsk and lugansk peoples republics, as well as the referendum in crimea that led to the peninsula finally rejoining russia. from 2014 till 2022 the majority of humanitarian aid to the donbass republics came from the cprf.
the reason for the smo is the ukrainian western-aligned nazi regime violating the minsk accords by refusing to demilitarize, trying to join the fascist nato-block and murdering russian civilians for years on end. the russian government showed itself extremely lenient, to lenient even, as any sensible politician would have staged a military intervention much earlier. if you need further proof for the tyrannical nature of the kievan regime just look at the fact that zelenskiy has banned all opposition parties in his country, refuses to hold elections and effectively rules as a military dictator. furthermore he has outlawed the russian language, made any negotiation with the russian state illegal and is currently selling whatever is left of his country to the highest bidder. combine all this with the fact that the west and its puppets need to always be opposed due to them being a cancer of humanity and you’ll get a pretty good picture of why to support the russian military.
[Query: Do communists have to support Russia?]
from @davel@lemmygrad.ml
In a word, no. In a few more words, support for Russia (not Putin, as historical materialists don’t subscribe to great man theory) is only a partial, temporary, tactical one, in the context of imperialist liberation. Russia is still a capitalist state, though, so it’s a two stage strategy: first liberate colonized bourgeois states from colonizer states, and second revolution within those liberated bourgeois states.
Russia is an interesting case: it has already liberated itself from the post-Soviet “shock therapy” neocolonizers. This occurred during Putin’s administration, which is why he is especially hated by the US. So now the support for Russia is in the context of keeping the colonizers from recolonizing it, and supporting Russia to the extent that it helps other states liberate themselves. But Russia isn’t trying to “liberate” Ukraine, at least not all of Ukraine. It’s trying to resolve the genocidal attacks on the people of the Donbas, and it’s trying to resolve the imperialist military expansion at its border.
Also, Ukraine really does have a fascism problem and has for a long time, and the coup government has materially supported it.

Praxis is when yelling fascist slogans.

Seems like you need to read more theory
lmao
We support the Ukrainian proletariat, not the fascist state. We also support the Russian proletariat, not the oligarchic fake democracy BUT the western capitalist regime is the bigger enemy here and Ukraine are in bed with the EU and NATO.
