you can’t express your opinion here

I've had this account for nearly a year and a half, and I've never had mod action taken against me. On my previous account, I only ever had 2 mod actions. I'm highly political and post regularly. My secret is that I pay attention to every community I'm looking at, and follow their rules. As an example, I'm gender fluid but generally identify with masc identities, so I never post or comment in !womensstuff@piefed.blahaj.zone. Following community rules is easy. Just don't do those things. Whether you want it to be or not, gen-AI is absolutely a political topic right now, so it's not really welcome in !showerthoughts@lemmy.world.

    I've been banned from like 10 different communities once because I downvoted a post I didn't like. The same mod just decided to ban me from everything they had the ability to.

    Honestly, if you aren't getting banned by Fascist or Tankies you are doing it wrong.

    I think it's more that I curate my feed to avoid them in the first place. I'll read their rules, judge for myself, and decide if I want to interact with it. I report fascist shit and shut it down when I see it. I've never been banned for it. That's a success in my judgement of the spaces I choose to participate in.

    Personally, I stay away from the womens stuff community because it is so incredibly stupid to constantly whine about people coming in and commenting when you're making a place that literally broadcasts your posts and comments in a way that invites others to come and comment. It's no different than having a conversation on a busy street using bullhorns and then complaining about people joining in.

    When some form of the fediverse can properly do closed communities with a whitelist, then I'll happily head there.
