I was just perusing the modlog when I noticed something interesting. Apparently posting news about Gaza/Palestine is not allowed on !worldnews@sh.itjust.works. I decided to check the side bar and didn’t see anything. The only pinned post also does not indicate that this is not allowed

edit: the mod in question is @Eyekaytee@aussie.zone . sorry for not originally tagging. i hadn’t realized it was a rule that this must be done. i thought it seemed inappropriate since i was trying to initiate a conversation about a community’s rules and culture rather than start drama about an individual

    do you think this community will accept if a moderator featured in this community used your comment as an excuse for their moderation?

      It depends? I think you’re still under the mistaken idea that this comm judges mods on how well they follow their printed rules, rather than how much of a power-trippin’ bastard they’re being. A mod can have bastardly written rules and follow them to a T and we’d still call them bastards for having such rules.

          Why did I just know you were simply building up to a gotcha 🙄

          If you feel I’m being a PTB, make a post about it in this comm.

            if you were aware of your own hypocrisy then that’s on you

              No hypocrisy here mate. But good to see your claim of trying to amend relations was just a lie since you’re still clearly salty AF and having to resort to bad faith statements like these.
