The output from the LLM was provided as proof that someone needed to be banned.

I didn’t want to do this but my hand was forced by their dissembling, minimization and bullshit. Note how the output includes a nice big logo with a slogan and ascii graphics - this was not a one-off experiment, this is an app they were proud to call their own.

    Piefed defederating from that group of “anarchistic” instances would get me to change to piefed if .world didn’t immediately follow suit.

    It’s not even so much that the users on those instances are all bad, they’re not.

    It’s that their admin team (it’s really one group across multiple instances) are either incapable or unwilling to keep out bad faith users.

    It legitimately doesn’t matter which it is, and bad faith users would love if that’s the discussion.

    When rot spreads in a connected network like this, you prune it before it can spread. Admins got rid of hexbear, and thought that was enough. Since it wasn’t, it continued to spread and now even more drastic action needs taken.

    I don’t want to keep relitigating this shit, but these decisions can’t drag out, the longer this goes on the more rewarding it is for those same users to infiltrate another instance and try the same shit.

    All the problematic users have alts all over, but defederating from the main instances drastically cuts off their recruitment. They’d be forced to deal with competent local admins, and every post/comment wouldn’t include an advertisement for their home instance allows that type of shit.

    Edit:

    Or an option for an account to choose to defederate their account from instances on a case by case bias.

    A setting page with every instance federated at large, and if you uncheck a box none of your comments/posts/votes are even sent to that service.

    That is what a “block” should be. Right now it’s just “ignore” which is plugging your eyes just to their community posts.

    That also gives admins a reliable pulse check. If 60% of users took the time to individually defend from an instance, they should evaluate if they should be federated at all, or at least ask their users why it’s happening.

        Anyone can put anything in a mod log…

        That first entry, I’ve never commented in, only like 10 ever have.

        https://lemmy.world/modlog/1471856

        That “mod” just puts huge notes in there for their empty community, hoping naive users think that and agrees with them. Hell, mine flat out says the reason is I banned that user for something else, he got big mad, and banned me from somewhere I’d never ever go.

        Then a chunk of Pig Jesus subs…

        And a BanPitbulls subs, which is almost always an entry into racism…

        Like,you need to use critical thinking bro, not just here but like, everywhere.

            all those mods

            Literally half of them are pugjesus…

            And for clarity, it’s because I downvoted their spam posts about leaving .world but that they were keeping all their .world communities so no one could use them…

            I 100% stand by those, I don’t know why admins haven’t just deleted those communities so the can be recreated and used

        They moderate a mental health meme comm, a community for fan theories with five posts all from more than a year ago, and a community that documents the collapse of society under capitalism… what about those demonstrate a high amount of tolerance for zionists?

            If we’re being charitable, there is perhaps an argument to be made that showcasing such a reprehensible comment getting ratio’d that hard helps to reinforce the community ethos of opposition to that sort of sentiment (“if you’re going to punch a nazi, film it so everyone can see the positive reaction to punching nazis”). However it’s a moot point now; while it did linger, that comment was removed a few hours before you called it out here.

              The comment stayed for days if not over a week a led me to get perma ban. Thr enonly reson it was removed is because locked posts get purged after a certain time. Also it is not the first time I called thr mod out

                That thread does not appear to have been purged, though? It’s still there, as are quite a few other heavily downvoted comments. That one comment specifically was removed recently? and appears to have been singled out.

                  Ok I thought the whole post was purged based on the modlog reason. The mod must have removed it only because I kept reminding him of tolerating genocide denialism and make my ban even weirder
