I got banned for calling someone a pigeon, I left and didn't look back.

Social media in general is full of people that want to rage or exert control over someone else. I had two of my comments here on Lemmy (not sure what server) under the News community for "Victim Blaming" and "Victim Shaming" for saying that people need to take responsibility for their actions occasionally instead of constantly blaming it on the other party.

Clearly it was your fault, you should be ashamed...

/S

The saving grace is Lemmy isn't just algorithms doing the banning.
