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 😜

      That’s definitely what’s going to happen. I’ve already got a shortlist of domains 😜

      Just wish I didnt have to directly fracture the community to do it. The mildly infuriating aspect if you will
