I just realised, I can't post anything on lemmy.ml
So, I checked https://lemmy.ml/modlog, there's a new moderator.
All posts and comments talking about China, Jinping, Russia, and Putin have been deleted and users banned

That rule is enforced capriciously and randomly. I just caught a rule 2 ban (I'm in the screenshot) for using the word "genocide" in a way they don't like.
Meanwhile, I've reported literally dozens of hexbears for posting their pig shit memes and not a single one got removed. Apparently that's more respectful than wrongthink.
Yeah, so lemmy.ml moderation sucks for you. So what? Go somewhere else.
Lemmy allows you to do exactly that.
Let me get this straight. You defend the moderation by suggesting that most of the removed comments were offensive or rude. But when someone provides a counterexample to that, you tell them to just go somewhere else if they don't like the moderation?
Yeah it's pretty fucking obvious you're not acting in good faith here. You don't see anything wrong with what their mod team does, even if it's to ban dissenting opinions.
