You stretched the definition of civility several magnitudes further than I did to remove the original comment.

The comments I reported, insulting vehicle owners' genitalia, are much more likely to fall under most people's understanding of "be civil".

You are only interested in enforcing rules to reinforce your personal views. You have no business being a moderator.

Not only is this your second reply to the same comment, you also created a whole separate thread to complain about my moderation decisions. You have had plenty of opportunity to say your piece; now it almost seems like you're trying to goad me into removing your comment so you can crow some more about how "abusive" I am. Well, it's about to start working: any further harassment, personal attacks, or off-topic complaints about moderation will be removed, and I will be entirely justified in doing so.

Also, I've already explained what "civility" means in this context


both in this community and in Lemmy.world as a whole


to you multiple times. If you want to have a safe space for misinformation, go somewhere else.

It's honestly like you're an AI trained to mimic reddit mods

I don't want you to remove my comments. I want you to remove your own
