In their defense, they only stated that they appreciated it…not that they’d listen.

"I appreciate criticism but prefer compliments" - mods probably

Lovely - mods are removing all comments that are pointing out that /u/CaliforniaKove has been spamming multiple instances with the same agenda for days now. I'm guessing pointing out spam and voicing disagreement is not allowed? Better yet, they're citing community Rule 2, which has to do with reposts and in no way applies to the removed comments. Unless they mean to cite Rule 2 of lemmy.ml, which is also absurd imo considering the shit that regularly gets posted on the instance (of which I'm a member). Normally I don't removed about getting comments removed, but not allowing people to express frustration with actual spammers, and removing their comments citing an anti-spam rule, is fucked up and smells of agenda pushing vs. actual moderation.

I don't removed about getting comments removed

Is the word bitch or vulgar term for female dog banned here?

Lemmy.ml censors swear words and slurs.

[–] Majestic@lemmy.ml 4 points 11 months ago

It doesn't fucking censor swear words. You can say shit and ass and damn. It censors slurs and offensive terms to historically marginalized groups only. It's just some of them are still so prevalent in our language that people take umbrage to this.

It's the later. As the other user pointed out, lemmy.ml censors vulgar language by default

Seeing the... type... of people who can't handle fact checking, I am relieved it is in place.

I... Agree with the OP that the site's rating isn't good.

At the same time, the reports are very informative and seem to be well researched. I ended-up liking the site.

Make you own community. Presumably with blackjack and hookers
