Got a 7 day ban on !memes@lemmy.ml after responding to this very abusive commenter with this image:

I reported their abusive comments somewhat expecting to get banned as well. It came as a shock to me when i saw my ban but this commenter got off scot-free. They didn’t even so much as get a single abusive comment removed.

This is the most blatant double standard I’ve encountered on that instance.

        Being in opposition to something doesn’t make you equivalent ideologically, also that’s a tu quoque fallacy, the same one you referenced in the original thread. We’ve come full circle.

        I’m done responding here, @ me in a different thread if you’re that desperate for engagement.

          It’s not a tu quoque. I’m calling out your double standard. It’s a pot calling the kettle black
