the mod said they will unban him if he remove the post in /r/viking
A reddit mod with a power trip is a hilarious thing. Pathetic that they were banned.

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

**No illegal or NSFW or gore content. **

Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-Reddit posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

Why even go to that cesspool of site to begin with?
Still too big, and it used to be better. I don't know where on Lemmy I would go for nerding out about the Vikings yet and we need to get that stuff established
!archaeology@mander.xyz cries out for content! I think this being a reproduction of an actual artifact would make it okay to post there.

What I'm seeing here is
- ceo saying we're an unpolitical, nice platform now and don't want to get in trouble with the US government
- admins toeing the line
- mods not only toeing the line but engaging in pre-emptive obedience, or going beyond the call of duty or better safe then sorry or whatever you want to call it.
It's the mods I don't understand here. FFS they can't even lose their paying jobs. The only explanation I see is that they do it for the sake of playing smalltown sheriff. But it's not even fun, it's just fucked up.
I'm a mod on a regional discord server and used to mod forums back in the day. I just make sure people don't threaten each other and I ban the spambots. How do people let this shit go to their heads so much? Goddamn.
