American entities love censoring opinions they don't like. It's why Lemmy is so great. Parts of the fediverse are likely to exist completely externally to the US corporate """community standards""" which seem primarily to entice other corporate entities to advertise with them.
that's people in general. i've seen plenty posts here calling to ban 'bad' opinions or defederate instances that allow them.
Saw a mod on lemmy.ml delete almost every anti communist post on a thread yesterday. Was extremely disappointed.
Something that is important to keep in mind is that Reddit had a mod problem and it wasn't created by spez, it's created by some people not being able to have power without abusing it. We must not assume that, since this is a new platform, that there won't ever be mod problems here.
Personally, I'd like to see infrastructure for evaluating mods publically. Somewhere you can see a list of their actions after the fact so that people can see for themselves if a mod is acting in good faith. And then, based on that, it can be determined if the admins are acting in good faith by which mods they keep and which they remove. It would also make increasing the number of mods less risky because the problematic ones can be noticed and removed quicker.
i've lived through the fall of USSR so i consider modern communists incredibly naive but i wouldn't try denying them their freedom to express themselves.
as opposed to people who run around calling everyone they disagree with nazis just so that nobody would dare argue against them.
