I posted this meme to the Lemmy Shitpost community. I reckoned that it might generate a bit of debate, and would probably end up locked, but the entire post got deleted, and moreover, I’m now forbidden from sharing political posts to the community. Political posts are not against the rules of the community.
I have reason to believe that the post was deleted not because it was controversial, but because the moderator (Decoy321) disagreed with the political slant of the meme. The reason I find this suspicious is because other controversial posts, such as one about veganism remains up, and Decoy321 seemed to enjoy the fact it was controversial:
I am not able to comprehend people criticizing voting for third party. What is the meaning of vote if you cannot select a candidate of your choice?
Depends on if you’re an idealist or a utilitarian
Exactly my thoughts! It’s finally becoming more common to think like this on Lemmy now, but holy hell… in 2024 many Lemmy’s legit wanted to crucify people who thought like this. And they still follow me around and regularly ask that I be banned from the entire fediverse!
I’m not going anywhere tho. :) And I’m so proud of how mad they got, I put their comments and posts in my profile banner:
