      if we’re lucky, there’s be a paragraph about it between to the paragraph about the trail of tears and the other paragraph about martin luther king jr in american history books.

                Did @eldavi@lemmy.ml report me?

                Either way, it was sarcasm

                the caustic use of words, often in a humorous way, to mock someone or something

                  I won’t reveal who reports who, but I will say it was someone else.

                  The civility rule is NOT ambiguous:

                  “Rule 5: Keep it civil. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members.”

                    All good but this moderation approach is censoring non-problematic content because some people have poor reading comprehension and/or don’t understand sarcasm.

                    I would expect them to get better instead of content getting diluted.

                    @eldavi@lemmy.ml did confirm that he did not report me, so this is literally some third party injecting themselves into a discussion. Either way, rules can be used by faith actors to stifle speech, that’s how it works on reddit. I would posit context should be counted when issuing removals.
