just to clarify i want evidence of this specific admin function being misused, i and everyone else already knows that the lemmy.ml mods are trigger happy with their bans, but you’re claiming that they’re misusing the anti-CSAM feature to remove comments from the modlog that they actually removed for criticising china to cover their tracks which i havent seen anyone else accuse them of
can you link me a single example of someone saying that they had their post removed from the mod log
I didnt say that lemmy.ml mods havent been overbearing with their moderation i said "i havent seen anyone even claiming its been used against them or pointing to their post being permanently removed from the modlogs unjustly".
if you want me to spell it out slowly i can:
- lemmy.ml mods have abused admin powers at some points
- it is possible that the lemmy.ml people could abuse this admin power
- as far as im aware there is no evidence that anyone has misused this specific admin power
- this specific admin power has been used to remove child porn and dox info
- since this admin power has been used for good reasons and hasnt been used for bad reasons it shouldnt be removed as an admin power
well i havent seen anyone even claiming its been used against them or pointing to their post being permanently removed from the modlogs unjustly, only people saying that maybe it could be used in this way, so no i dont think that the ML tankie front are using it that way. and since i know it has been used for its stated purpose to fully remove actual doxx information and child porn i dont see why it should be removed as a feature, at very least until there's some evidence of it being used maliciously
all instance admins have the ability to do this on their own instance, the functionality was added to deal with doxx info being posted so it wouldnt be visible even in the modlog, and it was used a lot to deal with the CSAM spam attack too - basically whenever this happens the relevant message will still be in the modlog but it will be changed to "Permanently Removed". Currently there's no evidence or even accusation that this functionality has been used for anything except the stated purposes though so i wouldnt worry too much.
I think micro plastics in our anything will probably be an issue
You're the one unironically saying this about Palestinians being murdered by psychotic IDF fascists because they might be transphobic, not me
Omw to adopt this line of thinking uncritically to argue that 9/11 was entirely justified and should happen again once a week throughout every republican state in the US because some of the victims would probably happen to be transphobic.
Basically just the same as just defederating but you also sign a little thing promising you'll never refederate with threads
They have very simple demands, they're not giving some pie in the sky stuff like "have Joe Biden tried for war crimes and abolish capitalism" or something; the protests all have demands along the lines that their university boycott Israeli companies and cut ties with weapons manufacturers aiding the genocide. To claim otherwise is completely infantalising to the protestors who are risking their university positions and physical health to protest despite the police crackdowns.
Here's a link to the list of demands of the student protest in new York, for instance
And here's a picture of the list of the demands of the columbia faculty protest:
