To be fair, that guy was a giant asshole.

I like your strong language rule. But rule 6 is such a vague catch-all that it basically says “the mods will remove anything they don’t like, at any time, with no warning”

Which seems kinda fucked.

Nah I’m confused because I did read it. The sidebar for world news says that this is rule 3

Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.

Which doesn’t even make sense to apply to a comment.

And says that this is rule 6

Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.

(I was jokingly accusing you of violating rule 6 because the removed comment could maybe be said to violate that one. It’s a bit of a stretch but at least plausible.)

So still kinda confused because you quoted a different rule 6.

My apologies, saw the wrong list of rules. My mistake.

Though I never stated or implied that anyone was banned.

Where can the correct rules be viewed? If I look at the rules for this community, the numbers don’t line up. And searching for lemmy.world rules doesn’t give any useful results.

Looked in the modlog. Doesn’t seem like that violated rule 3. Seems like you violated rule 6. Gonna ban yourself?

Edit: crossed out the bit where I was wrong, but left it for context

Nope, sorry. It tends to correlate strongly with wealth and power though.

You gave examples of a bunch of objectively bad people and then said bad is subjective. Hard disagree.

If only the forces of evil are willing to kill and to die for what they believe in, then evil wins, forever.

Is it an ideal solution? Fuck no. It’s wildly messy and uncontrolled. But the bad guys are winning, and they have been for a while. Continuing to do nothing isn’t going to fix anything.

Mostly the people actively destroying the planet that we all live on, attempting to murder our entire species.

Stop killing yourselves and kill the fucking bad guys, you cowards. Every one of those lives could have been used to make the world a better place for the rest of us, and instead they all just quit.
