The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.



Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.

That's it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.



Rule 6- Regarding META posts.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.



Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.

If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.



Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.



:::spoiler Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

On a discussion about a revolution in Canada I merely suggested that there are no resources to protect the rich in the event of a revolution breaking out.

I even went on to explain I can't even kill ants though so count me out.

Perma banned for inciting violence, appeal gives you 100 characters to explain so I won't bother. How do you appeal a site wide ban in one sentence?

12 years of contributing to IT communities and it's all gone, that's what I'm upset about.

I think it's going to happen naturally, canadian youth have basically nothing to lose at this point. We also have mass immigration from india the last few years, majority are aged 25-40 males, and we are already dealing with gang violence which we've never had in canada before, things just seem to be ramping up.

/r/CanadianTeachers is a fascinating insight into the way kids are thinking these days.

We basically have no law enforcement or military so unless the USA comes in to help it will probably look something like the purge.

There is also a really bad class divide just between those who own homes and rent and I see examples of resentment over this every single day.

None of what you said explains why a revolution would happen. Maybe a race war due to immigration backlash but certainly not a class based revolution.

It doesn't really matter if I'm wrong, the point is that I was banned for no fucking reason lol

[–] LavenderDay3544@lemmy.world 2 points 4 months ago

It's okay so did I and for same supposed reason as you except my comment was a word on one word each. I have no idea how that incites violence but okay.

Fuck Steve Huffman.
