Join the lemmy.ml boycott today and help foster a better Lemmy-verse! No more posts, comments (except to counter their propaganda ofc!) or upvotes on any comms on the Lemmy.ml instance!

None of that is true at all. I don’t ban others for disagreeing unless it’s explicitly genocide denialism, such as denying China’s human rights violations (Uyghurs) or the soviet union’s (Holodomor), and I give them ample opportunity to reword their statement before they possibly get banned.
I also don’t use bots. I’m subscribed to the community, so I get notifications for new comments and posts. Hexbear, Lemmy.ml and Lemmygrad also use bots to automatically ban others. Though so does SJW and Lemmy.world, there are some users who just keep using alt accounts.
