I’ve been banned twice in c/world because one of the mods doesn’t like my political views, so I vote no. They want an echo chamber, and that’s not how political news works.
Edit: YoBucksStopsHere and JordanLund are great people. It’s not them.

MODERATORS
May I ask when you were banned? Because YoBuckStopsHere only recently became the owner of the community, it may have been the prior mods/owners that did it.
They want an echo chamber, and that’s not how political news works.
I whole heartedly agree.
It was 2 days ago. They weren’t the mod when it happened. To be fair, it was technically bannable. But removing the post would have been sufficient.
I usually don't ban anyone unless they give us no choice. While I don't agree with everyone's perspective, I respect it. Everyone is invited to their opinion as long as it doesn't violate the TOS or community rules.
TB, I think that ban has passed BTW. Should be the standard 3 day deal.
It’s fine. It helped me to adjust my posting. I think it was just the knee jerk ban that miffed me, with no warning. But I also understand modding isn’t easy, and it’s easier to just stop things before they start.
