If you comment in lemmy.ml on any of the omnipresent Chinese or Russian-centric posts with anything other than adoration, you’re banned… Criticism isn’t allowed in any of the major communities there and you’re obviously aware of that.
That’s demonstrably false, and you’re obviously aware of that.
If all you’re interested in is strawmanning, ad hominem, and repeated lies, then I’m not interested in continuing this conversation.
See, this is why the correct approach to bad faith actors is to never give an inch, because they’ll just keep going on the offensive and jumping to new topics, no matter how reasonably you treat them. Because they’re acting in bad faith and don’t actually care what you actually believe, they just want to make you look bad.
Unfortunately, I’m nice so I tend to give people the benefit of the doubt even when I shouldn’t. Allow me to correct my mistake.
Ahem. Why do you support Israel’s genocide, fascist? Lots of people have seen people like you supporting it so you must too. Denounce it right now or it’ll prove you hate Palestinians.
Don’t worry, if you do, I’ll have another accusation ready and waiting for you, just like how you do.
Are you still pretending like you were acting in good faith? Lmao. First you jumped down my throat with baseless accusations, then you demanded that I criticize Russia, then when I did, you sensed blood in the water and came after me even harder.
You know for a fact at this point that your accusations were false, you don’t care. Because it was never about saying things that you actually believe, it was about going on the offensive and saying anything to make me look bad.
Thank you for admitting it was just about trying to make another side look bad and that you had no interest in what I actually believed. That’s the first honest thing you’ve said this conversation.

Do you denounce the Biden administration’s restrictions on trans healthcare?
If you do, I’ll have another thing to demand you to denounce right after. I’ll throw your tactics right back in your face.

It’s demonstrably true and has been widely discussed for at least a year now.
The fact that some critical comments got removed does not prove that “anything other than adoration” results in a ban.
You’re absolutely right, I could say “China is a country with over 1.4 billion people” and not get banned, despite that not being adoration.
Yet any common or good-faith reading of that phrase would not imply that neutral statements are included under the ban.
Any other bailey you’d like to run to?
What’s your demanded ratio for censorship to count as censorship? 1 removed for every 10 that remain? 1-1? 2-1? 10-1?
How are you acting like you were right after admitting you were wrong? Quite an interesting rhetorical trick.
Motte and Bailey doesn’t give you license to put words into my mouth.
