And for the record, there was nothing even remotely racist in my comment. Dessalines just can’t accept being wrong. 🤷🏻‍♀️

UPDATE : I am (almost) sad to report the ban only extends to [email protected] !

Also, I found the original comment, here it is (and if you see what’s racist about it, please tell me, I’m open to being wrong about this, although I really doubt it) :

    How is this racism?

    (This is a rhetorical question. We all know he is a nut job.)

      It’s not, but who will be able to tell once the comment is removed?

      Exactly. Racism would be “China’s government is bad, therefore my Chinese neighbor deserves to be ejected from my country.” That sort of logic is not in short supply in my neck of the woods.

      Criticizing a government is okay. Using that as justification to persecute unrelated people is not okay.

      It’s just so people can “know” that it was removed due to racism and thus, a just reason. A way to cover their ass.

        And of course, since this comm is blocked on .ml, none of their captive users will ever see the real comment unless they check the modlog.
