You have it backwards. Defederation happened prior to the removal of the “child-like” reference. Per the explanation of the removal it was part of the community from the start when the definition of adorable was copy/pasted.
I don’t know why you would assume the addition happened after defederation based on the time stamp of it’s removal.
You have it backwards. That mod is the one who removed “child-like” it was there until after defederation/this blew up and the nsfw admins appointed that mod in response.
They aren’t removing opposing comments. They are removing comments from other instances as it’s a meta post about their instance. Opposing comments from their own instance have not been removed.
If you aren’t on their instance your opinions aren’t relevant and this doesn’t affect you.
Can’t tell but you’re still willing to make assumptions and make up motivations without verifying anything. Is this community just for drumming up drama and targeting other communities?
archive is failing to properly archive lemmy pages. It has a blank sidebar but will update to the current one.
The mod themselves said it was true and you’ve been given links to it multiple times.
More like, it’s less sketchy if you pay for a domain at all. .ml was free, what did they think was going to happen?
They can do that in the image as well.
Copy/pasted text stays with time too and doesn’t have the issues that pictures of text do. Also hosted images disappear all the time.
In this case they did come first though! They registered the /c/politics community first.
But really they should change the display name to US Politics.
Intent is irrelevant. Humans don’t work that way and will continue to downvote what they don’t like/agree with and upvote what they do like/agree with. Creating a system that ignores how people work and asking them to please use it how you want will never work.
Everyone should just embrace how it’s actually used and move on.
