A individual user airing their personal biases and manipulating lemmy isn’t good for the community, regardless of how you feel about their target. This is a really bad thing ™

    You are literally linking to the post I crossposted.

    Do some lemmy clients not distinguish crossposts?

    Edit: I’m wrong, see comments below.

        Okay. I see what happened lol. Someone who is instance banned from my instance first posted it on this community. Then someone crossposted to another community. Since the OP was instance banned, for me the crosspost read as the OP, and then I crossposted it to the community it was originally posted in 😭.

        (This is the ugly side of federation).
