    Hey Mods, if Hitler was President would you censor anything calling to rise up and harm him too before or after The Holocaust? Just asking questions here.

          Just to note this is also direction from the admin team on .world. U til significant push back, jury nullification wasn’t permitted to be mentioned (despite precedence of its legality), as well as a rule to allow all opinions, regardless of the rules of the community. This was also pushed back on, and will be back after they re-word it.

          This is .world at large.

      Would you like to pay to move the server to a country with free speech laws or do you just expect the people paying for the server you are using free of charge to do that on your behalf?

        The lemmy.world mods are notorious bootlickers and delete any comment that insinuates that people should rise up against Trump.

          I haven’t had any of my comments deleted about that. I’ll keep a lookout though. Thanks.

            Because that’s a lie. The server is based in the Netherlands. It is illegal in the Netherlands to call for violence. What gets deleted are calls for violence.

            A very quick glance at the modlog will show that comments merely saying people should rise up against Trump are not in there.
