We’re on (a community on ML) right now, and the incident OP is talking about took place on ML.

In my experience ML is the biggest server where I notice the political influence on moderation. There are a few bigger servers in terms of accounts and posts, but I rarely notice the influences outside of overtly political communities.

Maybe servers like .world just aligns better with my own political biases, who knows. I just find myself disagreeing with moderator choices on ML more often, like in the choice of moderation OP mentioned in the opening post.

It’s your server and I’m grateful you’re taking the time and effort to help moderate it, especially as it’s done next to all of the work you do on the Lemmy project itself. However, I feel like communities that occasionally attract entertaining shitposts just aren’t suitable for servers with values this strong.
