Something funny is going on at Lemm.ee. The admin is suddently ban hammer happy too.
That and all the mods removed from here is kinds strange.
Anyone have any word on what’s up and why the drastic changes in attitude and all of the sudden bans?
**EDIT: **Actually I think I found the reason: https://lemm.ee/post/55846636/18367529 (!meta@ lemm.ee “It seems some higher level moderation of communities may be required”)
Lemm.ee is a bunch of new admins, so it’s not longer as friendly to differing opinions as it once was.
Which a bunch of Lemmy Democrats are gonna cheer and advertise about.
Probably a good idea for us to find a new conservative community.
Don’t let them silence you, guys. We should just move–not run away. Running away is what they want us to do.
EDIT: I’m not defending Nazi’s or Nazi salutes. I didn’t see the post and I haven’t seen any describe it other than “it was a Nazi salute!” Does anyone want to actually describe the post? What did it say? Was it a meme? Was it Musk? Was it a random pic?
No one is banning conservative communities. they are removing nazi posts. Not sure why you’re misunderstanding that
And I am fine with that. But I am seeing a larger conversation, in the links provided where people are saying that there should be no conservative communities. As in literally saying, “There shouldn’t be conservative communities allowed anywhere on Lemmy.”
That’s what I’m referring to.
where are you seeing that discussion

Which also talks about the reason all the mods were removed from this community today. Here is just one of the comments saying that, but there are others:
Ok so one random user stated that? Out of thousands?
Did you read the whole thread? You only seen one person saying that? Come on, now…
A handful? Do you think lemmy is made up of like, 10 users?
Do you think the majority of Lemmy users would like conservative communties on Lemmy?
How about this: You create a new user name. Then you and I will create a new Conservative community on Lemmy and be co-mods. After a month, tell me what you think about the general attitude Lemmy has about people who start conservative communities.
You’ll be called a Nazi even if you don’t post or comment on a single post. lmao
DM me, and let’s do it. It’ll be fun!
And we need some more conservative points of view on lemmy anyway, right?
Lets do it. Will you be removing every dissenting opinion, and only allowing breitbart posts? Will it be deep throating every single evil move trump makes?
