The “NA” word is nazi apparently, fyi to everyone else confused
I enjoy how the OP is not trying to say it and then this post is just like:
nazi
well hopefully you don’t get banned because on Reddit you will get banned from wich I came from
are you 12?
Been seeing OP a lot lately. They definitely type like a 12 year old.
No just a smart person who got perma banned from reddit for mentioning the NA word so now I am careful about it.
Just saying the word nazi won’t get you banned. Here or Reddit. But if there was something else that you did along with it that might get you banned
Now, how y’all gone do that to a kid?!
If you were that smart, you’d realize we wouldn’t buy your bullshit.
If they were that smart they wouldn’t need to describe them as such. I’ve never heard an actually intelligent person refer to themselves as smart.
North American?
Seriously though I don’t know what NA is supposed to mean.
I know the N word in reference to black people.
I thought they were saying "Non Applicable.
I meant for it to describe a fascist government that only want blonde hair and blue eyes.
Life pro tip: If a community would ban you for using the word Nazi (assuming you’re not being an asshole), make them ban you.
Exactly. Hopefully you don’t get banned. But lemmy is my new newspaper after getting banned from reddit for using the NA words.
I don’t think you understand Lemmy or moderation.
If your instance bans you, it’s because you did something to breach their terms. Sign up for a new instance and read the terms. And then read the terms of any instance whose communities you subscribe to, and when in that community, follow THOSE terms AND your home instance’s terms.
Even Reddit doesn’t ban people for the words they use. Subreddits sometimes do.
What any community bans you for is how you behave. Context and actions over time matter.
Well that’s because redditors are a bunch of nazis.
Context really matters, you’ll absolutely be timed out if you’re an asshat but mods tend to be pretty communicative here.
Using the word should be fine, endorsing the ideology is a different story.
Just out of curiosity who do you know I won’t get banned like reddit did me?
You don’t. If people didn’t ever get banned here, this place would be overrun by nazis in no time.
If you do feel the need to call someone a nazi, then maybe just don’t, though. Report them, if they’re violating the rules. If they don’t, then either ignore them or feel free to engage in a discussion on the part you take issue with, without assuming they’re a nazi. Vilifying people is actively bad for convincing them to change their ways, and it’s a part of the Reddit culture which unfortunately made its way over here, too.
On social media, don’t attack the person you disagree with. Argue the case for everyone else who’s reading the discussion, as if you were an attorney trying to convince the jury. Personal attacks are often counterproductive, and detract from the credibility of your argument.
Depends on context?
Nazi isnt a word that is banned on its own typically.
Accusing someone of being a Nazi? Probably should be banned for that, unless you have actual evidence of the person youre accusing endorsing the specific policies of Nazis. Throwing that word around just to describe anyone you disagree with or doesn’t agree with you is quite frankly incredibly disrespectful to the people who had to suffer at the hands of actual Nazis, whether they are still alive or not. It cheapens the word.
Speaking in a historical context? Definitely shouldn’t be banned for that.
At the end of the day, it depends on the moderators of the instance and community. There is no guarantee anything you say or do online will prevent you from being banned. Even if you follow the rules.
Thank you.
Only sensible person in this thread. My lord. They throw that word around like confetti. Fucking children.
Yeah, just because they’re waving swastika flags and trying to deport or kill all the non-whites doesn’t mean they’re Nazis
The modern term is “MAGA”.
Not Applicable? Why couldn’t you
