Why YSK: Beehaw defederated from Lemmy.World and Sh.itjust.works effectively shadowbanning anyone from those instances. You will not be able to interact with their users or posts.
Edit: A lot of people are asking why Beehaw did this. I want to keep this post informational and not color it with my personal opinion. I am adding a link to the Beehaw announcement if you are interested in reading it, you can form your own views. https://beehaw.org/post/567170
Except, it is. In order to be authoritarian you have to have authority over someone else. A parent or guardian can be authoritarian. A government can be authoritarian. An employer can be authoritarian. Beehaw can’t really be authoritarian towards you because it can’t really compel you to do or behave a certain way. It can ban you for violating the rules, but that’s it. But that’s the only thing it can do and you have the choice of just not participating there. It’s no more authoritarian than getting ejected and banned from a store for trying to shoplift. Nor is it any more authoritarian than getting banned from a library if you try setting the books in it on fire. Or do you genuinely believe that you should be able to act however you want anywhere you want without consequence?
You wanted to talk about gay people grooming kids, and you wanted to do it on Beehaw. Learn to read. I beg you.
I believe no part of this happened, including you ever dating anyone.
And the fact that you practically beg for a ban, get it, and then complain about Beehaw’s moderators being authoritarian shows how full of shit you are. You wanted to get banned so you could play the victim. You honestly just come across as painfully entitled.
You’re welcome. I can recommend some books if you want a deeper dive. Books are things made out of pieces of paper that have words written on them, by the way.
