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…
Well the more worrying part is someone in another response said this was the lemmy.world mods banning those subs from appearing on lemmy.world.
Makes me wonder about lemmy honestly. They’re making it very difficult to find an instance that is 1) reliable, 2) open to free speech and thought. With instances randomly blocking others, blocking certain communities, etc…
I mean, am I going to have to spin up my own instance just to browse Lemmy without random censorship of other instances and communities?
If hatred is what you seek, you’re on your own.
You know we can see through your whole “ah shucks, I was just wanting a little freedom” shtick, right? No one falls for that shit anymore. You know your opinions are vile, you just want to be able to ensnare vulnerable users into your bigot factory.
Oh, yes, because the opinions are different than yours, they’re automatically vile, filled with hate, and I’m a bigot.
It’s sad how closed minded and small people like you are.
How about this… why don’t you show me some of these examples of vile, hate-filled bigotry elsewhere that are hiding behind the scary banner of “free speech”? Can you give me a few examples of this vile, hate-filled bigotry you’re referring to that is apparently so prevalent?
Lemmy world doesn’t have any blocked instances atm except 1.
Apparently they can block specific communities from other instances though, which is what they have done in this case.
