In short

I got a reply from a prolific anti-vegan troll and referred them back to an
earlier conversation we had. Got banned for "harassment" and "following
someone around" when in fact they replied to me and keep following vegans
around when they post against anti-vegan propaganda.

The 14-day ban and comment removals by @aeronmelon@lemmy.world:

And the posts in question:

The comments when I posted them rendered as

Oh hey its you

The link is to a discussion which expanded is this here (The link goes to the comment with the highlighted star):

With background

The person in question is a very dedicated anti-vegan troll who is known to make non-sequitur claims as replies to vegans, in
the hopes of roping then into a defensive position under the guise of
"debate".

To exemplify this I engaged with them a couple months ago and got a perfect
showcase of their behaviour. I had never used this and have never replied to them since then (at least I
don't remember that I have and searching didn't turn anything up). But then
when they replied to me yesterday I did. And got promptly banned for
"harassment" and "following someone around". I messaged the mod who banned
me to no reply.

Their behaviour is being enabled by lemmy.world mods like
@aeronmelon@lemmy.world who will readily delete comments made by
vegans should they dare step a foot outside of the norms of "civilized
debate", like e.g. in the same thread (1) and (2). The petulant
and incessant trolling by them is of course never
subject to such moderation actions.

To any vegan comrades, do not engage this troll, you risk getting banned and your comments deleted.

Apparently I used wrong account to post this. Will have to switch accounts to my blahaj account on occasion to reply to comments, apologies.
