And yes, I know people will say block keywords and communities, but people don’t understand some communities have rules and people must follow them.

    This got reported as being not twitter or equal. I’m kind of on the fence about this. I see their point, but the original was twitter. Please tell me what you think in the comments, not just downvote or upvote. This will guide me in the future if we have any more posts like this.

      I havent read the rules of the comm. but ive always perceived whitepeopletwitter as a place to post text based social media screenshots.

      It probably shouldn’t be allowed in the future, but given that it has > 300 up-votes and is only now spurring a finer definition of the rule, I think it warrants an exception. If OP reads this, they now know to post this kinda thing in a different community in the future. But removing this particular post seems a little harsh.

      Edit: This is an awesome approach to moderation btw. People like you make lemmy great, thank you!

        I was searching for a community to post it, but I couldn’t find any. This one seemed closer to the idea l, a post where it says something. I also think I saw a photo from Facebook in this community, so…m Maybe we need a community about posts like these, but not twitter.

      People like this need to accept and understand that we don’t want to talk about US politics everywhere, all the time.

      Fighting to remove as many posts as possible on Lemmy when we barely get any posts at all doesn’t make sense; ignore the people requesting you take a popular post down for some potential technicality.

        I am not sure how this changes the “the post was against the states rules which are there for a reason and the mod was the absolute most gentle about it” facts.

        Did I get the facts wrong?
