Moderation Policy Change - Respectful Dissent

Context:

I propose a suite of radical changes. In order to maintain ideological focus and purity each user shall begin each comment with:

I <full legal name> reaffirm my commitment to big broccoli and oppressing the carnist, may history forget them.

thoughts?

There is no way their policy is enforceable without the .world mods being the ultimate deciders over what is fact, fiction, and acceptably dubious. Considering how that situation looks today I only expect it to get worse.

They are effectively removing moderators from their own community by overriding their decisions about what communities can and should be about and what is acceptable within those limits. Are the world mods capable of policing every community to make this new policy work? They seem to think so. Are these people who should be trusted to make those decisions? I don't believe so.

As the largest instance they are throwing their weight around to try and define what Lemmy is, not supporting the users that are actually here making it what it is today. Instead of dealing with their own shitty users and behaviors, they've told us all we must learn to accept them because the truth isn't real and we should all just accept it.

Fuck directly off with that.

Do you see the comments in that post? It seems like they're being removed automatically, so only the admins get to see it, perhaps.

I wrote an entire god damned essay and it doesn't even show up on my profile.

edit: just realized that I had blocked the community and, apparently, there was no obvious notice for that anywhere aside from the "UNBLOCK" button. So if it's blocked, you don't see the comments... :D

This post is perfection!
