Then removes the post itself for “misinfo”.
Suffice to say I think that the mod was just salty that I posted something that was not praising Russia, idfk what they were thinking.

What do you think, is me telling a regular that they’re not prescient, banworthy “chauvinism”? Power trippin’ bastard or nah?
I read this thread yesterday before it was deleted and the article in original post was looking like fake news. Even on .world where this post still exists, highly upvoted comments are disqualifying one of two sources of this artice (and second one is report in anonimous telegram channel). So i wasn’t surprised when i discovered that this thread was deleted as “misinfo”.
But i must admit that neither this post nor db0/yogsothoth discussion contained anything that could be labeled as chauvinistic. Therefore, it was shocking to see in modlog that the author of the post was banned for “chauvinism”.
And another moment that comes to mind is the hexbear/dbzer0 drama, when a meme posted in piracy community by hexbear user was deleted by dbzer0 admin for equally far-fetched and flimsy reason. It seems strange to call .ml admins “Power Trippin’ Bastards” for doing exactly the same thing that your teammates do on your own instance.
It comes from a known media source. It might be bullshit like so many things are but a biased lemmy mod isn’t always the best judge. Anyway the post isn’t about the ban not the removal.
Also if your think our own mods are power tripping, feel free free to open a post here.
