I saw: still needs a proper argument.
What part needs to be elaborated? Ok I will format a comment if you want it just feels like copying and pasting into a format that loses even more context.
Futher, I am not sure I trust having a conversation with y'all here? Lemmy World needs to prove to me they won't silence me because they don't want to have a discussion about this before I invest time carefully wording and formatting a post here just for it to get silenced/removed.
I know this is a big headache for them, it would be so much easier to just call me a shrill troll who isn't genuine in their beliefs at all and just wants to stir the pot, and that makes me extremely wary to invest my time making a point here in a way someone like Jordan Lund can flick with a finger and make go away.
When they do I will absolutely put in the effort of moving that kind of discussion over here, but until then sorry I just do not see proof of trust.
For now I refer you to the abundant links I gave that cannot be directly removed, silenced or taken down by Lemmy.World mods.
edit ok let me begin my conversation here with a quote from Jordan Lund
https://lemmy.world/comment/22677703
..and so I open this conversation with a question to you, do you earnestly believe this is a functional, well adjusted way to moderate a Politics community? Can this strategy and way of understanding politics possibly work even outside the thorny question of US-Israel politics?
An explicit argument consists of citing the relevant rules, stating how they've been violated, and providing evidence. It shows you've done the bare minimum to show your claim is plausible. This is in everyone's interest, especially yours as the interested party.
As basic advocacy, an explicit argument should be expected: if you're unable to articulate a decent argument, then how can you expect others to do so for you? Leaving that guesswork to others may not necessarily work in your favor. Do you really want to leave the best argument to chance & the unreliable charity of others?
An objective, sound argument may draw popular support by convincing them your claim is legitimate & just and demands action regardless of where admin decision ultimately settles. Not attempting one, however, draws all of it into question.
I have, on the threads I linked, why should I trust my posts to be moderated in good faith here? It is obviously apparent at least some of Lemmy World staff are friendly with Jordan Lund, this is likely messy af for Lemmy World admin.
I have provided abundance evidence, so have others.
I provided the bulk of the evidence on a third party community for a reason, and it is perfectly rational.
