  • i think “progressive” as a concept does not exist in either current US political party, in a manner that affects (effects?) meat-space reality. The reality is that both rep and dem parties are conservative in their own ways, the former is outward and forceful with it and the latter is hidden and corporate with it.

    they both are regressive to the working class.

    they both (in different ways) enable a fascist state to take hold, albeit at different rates of implementation.

    edit: to add re my “right wing” remark - both parties in the US are right wing. Neither is “the left” even if dems seem to be “to the left” - they are both right of center.

  • i had content recently removed for “advocating violence” (iirc it was when i suggested criminal charges for all shareholders of corps who do violent things like allow death when choosing profit over people, yadda yadda.) No example of what the offending remark was and I could not find the old comment to manually review or correct or apologize. in this case I messaged a mod. no reply yet. was it a legit removal? probably certainly! was it poor “customer service” to not follow up with me? probably. does it make me confused as to what the line is there and therefore distrust that community? certainly.

    anyway yeah. so the feedback loop could be improved. mods could be more human. and commenters could be less dicks all around! :)

  • I think the case of of legit vs not is a case by case thing and that’s why there are mod teams. Sidenote: is it possible to message an entire mod team vs trying to find one who is online when there are questions?

  • re point a: if the rules of the instance are not followed, of course mod action is legit. that guy was a douche it seems.

    i think mods of nsfw instances also deserve certain praise; modding that stuff must be … ugh. especially since the instance could be on a 486 in someone’s bedroom. having ran newsgroup servers back in “the day” - turning on anything “alt.bin” was .. not advised.
