I was glancing through the mod log and saw these two entries. Conspiracy theory communities were both removed for violating rule #3.
What are these rules? If I look in the side bar, rule #3 on both lemmy.ml and sh.itjust.works to me looks like no porn. So why were conspiracy theory communities not allowed? That seems like kind of a community that shouldn’t be an issue on Lemmy… are conspiracy theory subs really something that won’t be allowed here? Honestly that’s kind of disturbing to see already…
The mods of lemmy.ml are doing a lot of freewheeling moderation: https://lemmy.pineapplemachine.com/post/5781
Except that the conspiracy community is still up at lemmy.ml: https://lemmy.ml/c/conspiracy
As another commenter said, lemmy.world where OP has their account has a no-conspiracy-theories rule. It was probably an admin there that blocked those communities. It can be hard to figure out where modlog actions come from since they’re replicated.
So… from what I’m getting from that post… everyone likes to talk shit about reddit having a big ownership from a Chinese company that is exerting Chinese censorship on reddit… and now we’re (well, I’m registered at lemmy.world, but subscribe to a lot of communities on .ml) sitting here on an alternate site that… is ALSO exerting Chinese censorship! 😂
But it’s Fedi so it’s grassroots CCP censorship! See, better!
