I love the memes that pour out of [hostile community 1] and [hostile community 2], but inevitably when I participate in the comments under their posts, I’m bombarded with accusations of “trolling,” “imperialist apologia,” “racism,” etc. because I disagree with some aspects of the the hyper-auth-left.
I just want a community that makes me laugh “hehe, that’s a good point about that problem with the US” that isn’t overrun with people doing mental gymnastics to paint anything I say as the worst thing anyone’s ever said in the history of the internet and recreationally banning me for it.
Does such a place exist on the Fediverse (yet)?

No, trust me, I didn’t make it up. It’s explicitly against the rules on a popular instance/community that I encountered recently.

I cope fine. Learn to keep your inane comments to yourself.

And you, coping so well with my comment that you were compelled to reply and mischaracterize what I’m doing/saying again.
My my, aren’t we pleasant.
If we’re keeping track of which instances harbor nasty people, so far yours is 1/1.

Meh. Enjoy running around telling everyone who voices a concern to “cope.”
I think I’ll be taking your advice to block your instance.

I mean, you kind of just instance shamed in your previous comment…

I’ll live just fine, I just appreciated the irony.
I’ve also seen plenty of instance shaming. It mostly boils down to anyone on a .ml instance is a tankie and anyone on LW is a shitlib.
