Mod over at !startrek@startrek.website didn't like the opinion presented in an article I shared about the recent cancellation of Star Trek: Prodigy and removed my post to an star trek opinion article. I asked the @ValueSubtracted@startrek.website claimed they removed the opinion piece because they didn't want to give the website clicks.

I wrote a post calling them out on this power hungry practice and tried to involve the community as a whole. As the post gained traction, i was promptly banned for starting "drama"

So now, i guess it's at least mildly infuriating to say the least that a growing community banned someone contributing real discussion worthy content for potentially political reasons and as a result may end up fracturing one of the few kinda centralized communities across the Lemmy verse. I ain't even too mad tho, because that's what makes federation great easy to leave power hungry mods. Too bad for them this ain't reddit ๐Ÿ˜œ

So, let's get this straight.

You rolled up into someone else's house and brought in some stuff they don't want there.

They took that stuff, threw it out the door, but didn't toss you out.

You then jumped their shit in their living room, and you're surprised you aren't allowed over any more.

And, now, you're on the street corner complaining about it.

My dude, the way people throw around "power tripping mod" when what really happened is just the mod don't what they're there for, the phrase has lost all meaning. At this point, when someone says that, you don't even have to read further because it's a damn near guarantee that it's just someone that didn't like the mod decision.

Now, a c/ should have rules up, so that anyone rolling up knows what is and isn't cool there. Kinda like everyone knows not to bring up religion or politics at my dinner table, or they get uninvited and possibly have bread thrown at them. Maybe even something messier.

It really doesn't matter what the forum is, there has to be moderation because people are assholes. That's just how we do as a species. Without moderation, shit devolves into slapfights and pissing contests. Which ruins the forum for everyone.

I'd rather have a power tripping mod than deal with twits stirring shit and starting drama
