First of all, it wasn’t me. Second of all, this is out of topic for this comm and we routinelly remove off-topic comments. Stick to discussing whether it’s PTB or not, not geopolitics.
I’m leaving the rest of this topic up for now, but it should end here.
My apologies. I missed that Unruffled [he/him]@lemmy.dbzer0.com is a mod as well.
Actually reading over the modlog, and forgive me if I’m not doing it right, it appears that Unruffled was only appointed as a mod 7 hours ago. My comment was removed 2 days ago, and to my reading, that makes you the only mod.
Furthermore, the reason for the removed comment on the comment log was this:
reason: Russian propaganda talking points painting Ukraine as nazis.
Which is not stating that the comment was removed for politics. But rather that provably true facts, as reported by the Washington Post which I’ve included links to, are in fact nothing more than Russian Propaganda.
Which seems pretty questionable to me. If politics and out of topic comments are the rule, fine. Those are the rules, but this doesn’t seem like that. This seems like a mod, whomever it was, removing factual information that they didn’t like selectively. Which seems like the definition of powertripping.
P.S. To be clear, I didn’t downvote (not that it matters) your response. I do appreciate that you responded.
EDIT: FYI I’m using a browser that messes with the timezone for anti-tracking purposes. The gross time I included above may not be accurate, but the relative time between the two events should be.
