I cannot repost what Flying Squid was posting here, because it involved highly disturbing and dangerous content, including:
Content Warning
Graphic content, harassment, self-harm, and suicidal ideation, which I reported immediately.
While this behavior is shocking, it’s not completely out of left field, as members of this community and platform will already be familiar with their behavior. Flying Squid has long been regarded as one of the least productive and most problematic mods on all of Lemmy, often picking fights and abusing their mod privileges. I view this change as a positive step for Squid, .world, and Lemmy as a whole.
Im on Lemmy far more than I’d like to admit. Im always so confused when I see Squid hate. Ive never seen him say anything that’s not equal to what the other person is saying.
I can’t even see this “episode”.
I think there are people that take it waaaay too seriously when they see someone else is a mod. Mods are just you and me, but they have a more active role in whatever community. You can be a mod anytime you’d like. Simply create a community and voila! You are now a hated person.
Ive been banned from multiple places and couldn’t care any less about who banned me, or who the mods are. Grow up and chill out.
Anywhoo that’s my 2 crumbs. Enjoy the rest of your weekend everyone!
