I'd love to know why comments are being removed. Please post to !mods@sopuli.xyz

Comments that are spreading conspiracy theories or advocating violence are being removed. The mod log is public.

If we have missed any content that should be removed, or removed any content in error due to the extraordinary volume, please let us know by using the report system.

Oh, so it is. I didn't know that. And holy shit do you like removing stuff. Madness

We generally remove very little, but this situation that has led to a very high volume of rule breaking content. We also tend to discuss edge cases to sometimes avoid removal, but again, the volume of reports and rule breaking content did not offer that luxury. All decisions can be appealed by messaging a mod.

If you're a midwest.social user, you can still see the posts by clicking on moderation history. It's funny, saw one deleted that the reason was conspiracy. I have to laugh since there are soooo many right wing conspiracy posts that don't get deleted, I wonder what rule that falls under. I didn't see a "it hurts my feelings" rule /shrug

We have never allowed spreading misinformation or conspiracies in this community. If there are any posts or comments that we have missed, please let us know by using the report feature.

Because all mods are power tripping degenerates.

No reasonable person would do the job otherwise.

Now watch this comment get removed.

Naw, it's allowed. You're just stating an opinion. Personal attacks are not allowed, but this is a pretty broad statement.

That may be the case, but doesn't explain the purported reasoning for removing specific comments.

If you see any specific comments that were removed in error, please share the link with a mod by PM. We are far from perfect, but we hope to keep this space free of violent language and conspiracies.
