    “censured by mods”?

    He edited your comment to replace something with the text “censured by mods”?! He doesn’t know that that’s not how the word “censured” should be used?

    What an absolute melt.

      No, sorry for misunderstanding.

      Mod (different mod to this one here) removed my comment (in which I was replying to PugJesus) criticising Isreaeli propaganda as “fucking lies”.

      That is discussed here https://lemmy.world/post/33328504

      I then commented again (replying to PugJesus) and replaced word “fucking” with “censured by mods” to not give the mod any pretext to delete my comment again.

      After that PugJesus banned me from completely unrelated community in revenge.

      Edit: I now edited the comment you were referring to, to make it clear.

      Just to make something clear, mods do not have the ability to edit comments of other users. Even admins would probably have to do a bit of technical hacking to do so.

        That wasn’t always the case in the early Lemmy days. There’s a reason these folks stick to communities they created and control. They used to make ragebait posts, edit comments of other users to say unhinged genocidal shit, screenshot their edits and delete the thread. And then post that as evidence ‘documenting genocide apologia’.

        Now they just manipulate the modlog to not show the removed comments and make up reasons.
