Why were all the mods removed from this community today, leaving it un-modded?
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?
You're viewing a single thread.
conservative communities are highly sensitive to anything that goes against the echo chamber
Maybe they shouldn’t have left literal nazi salutes on their front page
conservative communities are highly sensitive to anything that goes against the echo chamber
You're describing Lemmy. In this very thread there are people saying that conservative communites shouldn't be allowed on Lemmy. LMAO
And I didn't see the nazi salute that started the shitshow. So I have no clue what happened with that other than the fact that it's been removed.
I guess the bigger question you should be asking yourself is why Nazis keep showing up in the conservative movement. Why conservative leaders court them for votes. Why conservative leaders are performing Nazi salutes at presidential inaugurations.
Weird how the left doesn't have a Nazi problem.
Can you expand on that for us?
why Nazis keep showing up in the conservative movement.
I don't think they do. Most conservative people I know in real life don't like nazi's.
And I don't think Elon is a conservative leader. And I don't think he's a nazi. I DO think he did a nazi salute to troll everyone. And I do think that trump should have distances himself from him. But I'm not going to fucking cancel Trump just because him and Trump are friends.
Elon is a capitalist, not a Nazi. And he's a dork who will soon implode the relationship he has with Trump.
But I do love him DOGE'ing every fucking thing and slashing and burning all the govt programs. That's hilarious to watch.
He's an asshole, not a Nazi. And he likes trolling you all to see how pissed off you all get. And it works every single time.
I don’t think they do.
It doesn't matter what you think. Your opinion is not relevant on this subject. That white supremacists vote Republican is not up for debate. It is simple fact. There's a reason why we've seen an increase in public displays of white supremacy during both Trump's terms.
Most conservative people I know in real life don’t like nazi’s.
Then they should stop voting to support them or people will assume they are also Nazis/fascists.
And I don’t think Elon is a conservative leader.
Then you'd be wrong. He funded Donald Trump's campaign, is followed by MANY conservatives on social media, and now has a prominent role in a conservative White House administration. So, again, you are definitively wrong.
But I’m not going to fucking cancel Trump
There is no reality in which you will cancel Donald Trump. You are in a cult. You are cucked.
Elon is a capitalist, not a Nazi.
Capitalists don't perform Nazi salutes on national television. Nazis do.
But I do love him DOGE’ing every fucking thing and slashing and burning all the govt programs. That’s hilarious to watch.
The fact that you are celebrating tens of thousands of federal workers losing their livelihood, many of whom are veterans, tells me what kind of sick individual you are. You are not a good person.
He’s an asshole, not a Nazi.
He's both.
And he likes trolling you all to see how pissed off you all get.
Sounds like a child. Which means you and him have something in common.
I disagree with everything you said. I'm glad Trump is president. :)
I disagree with everything you said.
That's because you are a scum incel that supports fascism in America.
LMAO
Nazis are capitalists. The word privatization was literally invented to describe what the Nazis did. Elon also constantly says and tweets and does and agrees with nazi shit. If he isn't a Nazi then i am the god of Justice and karma.
Nazis are capitalists.
Ok, but are all capitalists, Nazis?
No, but being capitalist in no way precludes nazism like you suggested
I didn't suggest that. I said that I think Trump is a capitalist, not a Nazi.
I didnt see it
So it must not exist?
Its literally discussed in the post you linked in your edit. tf?
edit. Lets simplify this.
Do you support literal nazi salutes on the front page of this community?
Are you willing to speak out against nazis?
These are yes or no questions. They should be very simple.
So it must not exist?
I never said that. I said that I didn't see it, so I can't comment on it.
Its literally discussed in the post you linked in your edit. tf?
Sure it was discussed, but it didn't say what the image was. Was it a meme? I have no clue. What was the context? WAs it jsut a pic of Elon giving a nazi salute without saying anything?
Maybe you can describe it to me.
Do you support literal nazi salutes on the front page of this community?
I do not. Never said I have. I simply said I didn't see the image in question.
Are you willing to speak out against nazis?
Yep. But that doesn't mean that this conversation should lead to variations of "every conservative is a Nazi" nonsense. Becuase that's not fact. That may be your opinion, but that's not fact.
Hey, it's not my fucking instance. If lemm.ee decides to ban conservative communities, then hey, they can go for it. There are other conservative communites on lemmy.
I don't agree that they should ban them, but I do believe it's their right to do whatever they want with their instance. Just like I can do what I want with my instances.
No one is banning conservative communities. they are removing nazi posts. Not sure why you’re misunderstanding that
No one is banning conservative communities. they are removing nazi posts
And I am fine with that. But I am seeing a larger conversation, in the links provided where people are saying that there should be no conservative communities. As in literally saying, "There shouldn't be conservative communities allowed anywhere on Lemmy."
That's what I'm referring to.
where are you seeing that discussion
https://lemmy.world/post/25674081
Which also talks about the reason all the mods were removed from this community today. Here is just one of the comments saying that, but there are others:
For someone that's only been here for 8 days you sure do think you know everything about Lemmy
What makes you think I have only been on Lemmy for 8 days? You realize that some people have more than one username, correct?
no one can magically know what other accounts you use
Of course not. Nor which other accounts you use.
Which is why I explained it to you. Lots of people on Lemmy have more than one account. So you can't really judge based on an age of a user account unless they say they are new.
I've been on lemmy for a little over a year.
Also you: "Multiple accounts?! I have no idea what you are talking about!"
I've never said I haven't changed accounts. I purge my accounts every few months for privacy.
So I'm still not sure what point you are trying to make.
so why are you now using a new account?
Trolling? Ban evasion?
I haven't trolled and I haven't evaded any bans.
Lots of people have mulitple usernames on Lemmy. For me, it's to protect my privacy and information from being all in one place. As are many others on here.
In fact, in the privacy communities, they recommend purging your username and creating a new one every few months. And I agree with that. And I do. And I will continue to do so.
Feel freel to check out the privacy communities and ask their thoughts on that subject.
Thats fair enough. But also, dont get upset when people question how long youve been on the platform when literally the only information others have is when you current account was created
I wasn't upset. I was merely pointing out that you have to be careful of assumptions on a platform like Lemmy that is so decentralized and focused on privacy.
Ah so you keep getting banned.
Even more ridiculous.I haven't been banned from anywhere under any username I've used. I just explained why I change usernames ever few months.. Where did I ever say or show that I've been banned?!
Tho I DO expect to get banned a result of this conversation thread! lol
You keep saying that. Why would you banned for this thread? That doesn't make any sense.
I hope I don't get banned. but I keep saying it because the attitude on Lemmy lately has been very ban-heavy to conservative views.
Trust me, I'm more than happy to be wrong.
But I also get called a "troll" on a daily basis, even tho I have not said anything trolling. So meh, it's Lemmy, hard to tell what will happen.
If I do get banned, I'll just start another username though. I scrub my usernames every few months anyway, so no biggie.
