I replied to someone saying that the USSR defeated the Nazis saying that it was a group effort. Got into an argument and called a Nazi repeatedly because "I was mad that the USSR defeated the Nazis and hated them for it" which is ridiculous. This isn't the first time that's happened on Lemmy. What's up with that?

Sometimes a user's views don't align with the echo chamber they are posting in. When that happens in a political community, it usually ends in removal to protect said echo chamber.

I never see anyone get called a Nazi in cat picture communities.

    i got site banned from reddit for posting a picture of my cat on my porch.

    by the 'cats can't ever be outside' people reporting my post as violence.

    there are extremist nutcases in every community. the problem is they are hypocritical bad faith actors, almost always. who feel anyone that represents anything they dislike means they should have free reign to abuse and harass those people.

    Look at the mods. It's a tankie bar.

    If you check the mod logs, it’s not even the mods that run their own instances. It’s mostly the admins.

    Fitting in an authoritarian shithole, isn’t it?

    So just like reddit? That's disappointing.

    Fair enough. I just thought it was weird to get called a Nazi for disagreeing that the USSR didn't singlehandedly defeat the Nazis.

    Then why the fuck do you idiots come to other servers and sign up once you realize a large portion of the fediverse has your instance blocked? Seems to me, you're the one who can't stay away from "libs".
