I am describing something only they do.
“Instance shaming” is how they describe any reference to e.g. .ML viciously censoring people for bullshit reasons. That kind of collectivist language is also extremely forbidden! … exclusively for accurate criticism of mods and users on the tankie triad. Those users are 100% free to talk shit about your instance, in their communities or yours.

Why did it take three explicit dry clarifications for you to re-examine that mistake?

And the explanation it was about “their rules?”

I’m still getting downvoted for asking about the error you admit was on your end. There is something broken about reddit-style comment threads, where once someone has a negative number beside their name, people insist on the shittiest possible reading, no matter how thoroughly that’s contradicted by follow-up comments. The words cease to matter. It’s a terrible habit people need to break out of.
