I just found out Lemmy is blocking and removing users for having varied political opinions that don't line up with their forceful left ideals. So I'm out. This was a waste of time.

This is true but I've found I've been blocked on world news for posting comments againts fascist ideas. I've been shadow banned from world news for posting comprehensive evidence of china's crimes against humans aka their concentration camps. It wasn't opinion i linked to studies, and it wasn't inflammatory. My comments were removed and now i can't like or comment.

It's really disturbing ngl.

Thank you so much for commenting this. I thought I was going crazy. World News seems to be the culprit. It isn't fair to the users to deny information. I think I'm going to leave, it is too disturbing. I don't need this.

I would suggest rather than entirely leaving the Threadiverse, just leaving that community and joining the [email protected] community.

Yeah i just blocked that community, but really shit we have dickheads like this ruining lemmy with arbitrary censorship.

Really no different than Reddit in that regard. At least we don't have people automatically banning you for having ever interacted with specific other communities yet, at least I don't think we do yet.

EDIT: Shit, somehow I forgot the don't. Teach me not to proofread.
