As a mod of [email protected], I feel your pain. US News creeps into there continually. We remove it when we see it.
Even then it’s still just mostly:
Ukraine
Ukraine
Israel
Israel
Israel
Israel
Ukraine …
Have you considered that might perhaps be because of the terrible moderation policies driving people away?
Nope, traffic is good, it’s mostly just everyone wants to fixate on Israel and Ukraine.
I literally saw you arguing something was a call to violence in YPTB today, when it was just someone having an opinion on current events. People already left a long while back, and I’m willing to bet traffic isn’t increasing as much as it is on more diverse comms. I abandoned it for reading news from various sources on country-specific instances.
LOL - Saying we need blood right now to water the tree of liberty IS a call to violence. If you disagree, that’s fine, we don’t need that polluting our communities.
That would be true if that’s what was said.
But looking back, they actually said they that they fear that time has come.
Expressing a credible fear of violence isn’t a call for violence.
We don’t give the benefit of doubt on things like that. It’s too easy to try and avoid responsibility by using weasel words.
“I’m afraid that…” can equally mean “I hate to say it but…”
So, yeah, erroring on the side of caution means the comment gets removed.
Same with the Nazi Bar premise:
k bro, and THIS is why no one posts more diverse content in your communities 👏 because fascists being violent is fine but when people suggest violence back you throw hissy fits like this one
edit: and despite that, they weren’t even suggesting it. they made an observation, not an incitement
It’s not a “hissy fit” when it’s actively against the rules of the community and lemmy.world terms of service:
