i have had multiple times where my comments were removed for being lightly snarky to a bigot meanwhile they’re allowed unabated making shitty comments about my queerness. like most recently the mods of /c/fediverse on lemmy.world removed my entire post announcing the new sharkey instance at cyberpunk.gay for no reason just because i was less than polite to someone who was being shitty

what gives? this is the fediverse

    I respect that you posted the original context. It’s a sad fact that there are people who don’t understand others, and react with hatred or skepticism.

    Do your best to be patient and forgiving, being snarky or outwardly rude does damage to their opinion of you and the topics you want them to be educated on. They will not want to learn or be accepting if you give the venom back.

    And that may not even work either, but if you care you have to try, and don’t sink to someone’s level.
