Nothing wrong with holding a political stance, but they routinely ban people for specious reasons.
OP should have left the politics and personal smears out of it then and opened a discussion about moderation practices. And as OP points out, the person he’s primarily smearing is the main Lemmy dev. What’s the endgame there? Trying to get the main dev thrown off his own project?
Subject line: Nothing about moderation or censorship, it’s about smearing the target’s views.
First two sentences: Nothing about moderation or censorship, it’s about smearing the target’s views.
Third sentence: Links to archive.org link that fails to load. (I think they are still under DoS attack) May or may not be about moderation, but nothing OP wrote in the leadup to the link leads me to believe it’s about more than smearing the target’s views.
Then a couple links that sound like they are about discussing moderation.
Then another para smearing the target’s opinions and politics some more.
Yep, OP was really about moderation and censorship, not about a personal attack. /s

That’s… exactly what OP did, though. Did you even read the post?
What does it lead with? A comment about moderation or a comment about the devs politics and opinions?
(Edit: and the subject line says nothing about moderation)
To brand the lemmy.ml as the censorship hell that it is.
