Something funny is going on at Lemm.ee. The admin is suddently ban hammer happy too.
That and all the mods removed from here is kinds strange.
Anyone have any word on what’s up and why the drastic changes in attitude and all of the sudden bans?
**EDIT: **Actually I think I found the reason: https://lemm.ee/post/55846636/18367529 (!meta@ lemm.ee “It seems some higher level moderation of communities may be required”)
Lemm.ee is a bunch of new admins, so it’s not longer as friendly to differing opinions as it once was.
Which a bunch of Lemmy Democrats are gonna cheer and advertise about.
Probably a good idea for us to find a new conservative community.
Don’t let them silence you, guys. We should just move–not run away. Running away is what they want us to do.
EDIT: I’m not defending Nazi’s or Nazi salutes. I didn’t see the post and I haven’t seen any describe it other than “it was a Nazi salute!” Does anyone want to actually describe the post? What did it say? Was it a meme? Was it Musk? Was it a random pic?
Hey, I see you deleted your posts and comments but I wanted to respond anyway for the sake of clarity.
I agree with your points about downvotes and this community being a source of opposition media. If we were against this, the community would’ve been removed a long time ago. The community is still up. We aren’t going to curate or over-police it. It’s in an awkward phase for sure, but the community is still pro-conservatism. I don’t necessarily want to see it turn into an anti-conservative dunk zone. There are plenty other places for that.
Deciding to keep using this community or to move instances - that’s up to the people. Our main concern is keeping things in line with Lemm.ee’s rules, and not allowing unacceptable content to be left up for as long as it was the other day.
