These are starting to really stack up with the nutty mods in some of these places and I’d like to keep score and perhaps display them somewhere. I’m wondering if there’s a list?
If not, short of crawling every community findable by an account and checking banned status by e.g. attempting to post, is there a way to collate such a list programmatically with e.g. an API or cURL or selenium automation, given the structure of the fediverse?
Scroll down to bottom. Click “Modlog”. There is an option to filter for your username.
You are apparantly banned for what mods are describing as “Transmedicalism”.
From reading their posts, op is either sarcastic to a degree that does not play well on the Internet, or continually dip their toes into communities with highly charged opinions and then acts surprised when their peers take offense.
The transmedicalism accusation is borderline spurious and I think the accusations is extreme given what I read (they’re more taking note of the difference between fashion expression and gender. They’re not saying who is it isn’t trans to gatekeep, they’re presenting the idea that some people might be less confused and make different life choices if more people tolerated traditionally-gendered subjects (like clothing and makeup) from anyone without judgement
OP was helping people find meth on the dark web in the ADHD community and when their posts were removed they posted the same again.
Are you exaggerating when you say meth? Were they helping people who couldn’t afford medication find prescription medicine at reasonable prices? Or was it literally street meth?
No. I was helping people practice harm reduction if they do get amphetamine - be it Adderall or LisDex formulation like Vyvanse/Elvanse without the oversight of a medical professional or pharmacist and explaining that it is a possibility, and that instead of the war on drugs type approach of claiming it’s simply not real, we should take care of our own with solidarity, e.g. explaining how to get proper purity tests to ensure you are not consuming meth, how to find reliable and semi-trustworthy sources, avoid scams etc.
Just comveying things I learned the hard way - from experience - while waiting on the NHS for a prescription that I have now and having to keep my life together to keep my job etc in the meanwhile.
I did the same for my own IRL gf who suffered from meds shortages, and I did the same for the trans community back in the day and I stand by it.
Edit: I genuinely cannot understand how this can be downvoted by anyone of sound mind whatsoever. Every single person I know with ADHD self-medicates or has self-medicated with darknet amph or supplemented during shortages due to healthcare system fuckups, but they are shit at it, getting god knows what miscallenous powders and suffering.
How could someone ever possibly disagree with promoting harm reduction practices, yet agree with a sensationalist comment that equates ADHD medication to meth? How can you actually think at all, and arrive at such a conclusion?
The opinions on the morality of harm reduction are irrelevant. The ADHD community on Lemmy is not the appropriate place to spread that knowledge for a ton of reasons that have nothing to do with the morality of harm reduction.
I’m not surprised you got banned. You were putting the administration and moderation team in a very difficult position. You should have simply stated ‘I have knowledge about X. Contact me on direct messages or Session/Signal/Matrix for details’
For the record I completely agree with your position on harm reduction
If that’s not the appropriate place to spread such information, then what is? If anything to me that’s what such places should be about.
It’s not your space to make that decision for. You are not the one who has potential problems if it draws negative attention. You aren’t the one responsible if server admins choose to block that community due to the law-breaking information you’re making available.
The appropriate place to share information that clearly instructed people on how to break the law is in private, or in a space you have created and control yourself.
It’s uncool to demand others allow you to use spaces they are in charge of like this. Have a little respect for the people who actually created these spaces.
Why is it that I can see you when your home instance has us blocked? That’s weird lol
