So I made a comment on worldnews criticizing Chinese activity in the south china sea and apparently got banned for it by the automod. This happen to anyone else? Is this Lemmy's version of the need help post and the shape of things to come?

The instance I posted in was Lemmy.ml

Never mind mate. Apparently his version of expanding his worldview doesn't involve 'younger' accounts. That tells me all I need to know.

That was certainly rude but I’m trying to engage with everyone in good faith nonetheless. It’s hard but sometimes it pays dividends.

You sir, are a better person than I. One of them has since started deleting. Good thing I didn't respond in kind.

To be fair, a new account posting flaming post does seems to be a troll account (not saying you are)

Well, having an opposing opinion doesn't automatically make it flamebait also - I can't help how people choose to behave. The comment was copied somewhere in here - no ad hominems, unlike one or two of the responses here (not yours). Just discussing the topic at hand and giving my opinions. Apparently some people don't react well to contrary views.
