And the rest:

And the thread in question:

So we need to have a long and serious talk about the authoritarian chucklefucks you all are allowing to dominate your platform, for this is an example of this flagrant bullshit someone else DMed me recommending I go to admins about, but we all know the admins are a group of Good Ole Boys who will do nothing but protect the mod. 🤦

So why is everyone putting up with this? Did we not leave Reddit to get away from power tripping scumbags? Do people not want a community ruled by the consent of its people? People were flagging shit based on bad faith arguing which last I checked falls under that sub’s first rule.

Oh, but telling a mod “no” is unacceptable. 🤦

We all need to come together and create an actual democratic platform because this is blatant authoritarianism and is not acceptable.

Oh, icing on the cake:

    You understand mods can’t just do whatever they want, right?

    Yes, actually… They can. As long as they comply with the rules of the instance they are on, (and keep in mind each instance is also subject to be ran however the admin who creates it wants) they can do whatever they so please with their communities…

    This isn’t a country. This is not a public space. It is a collection of private businesses (for lack of a better word) all doing their own thing.

    Welcome to the Internet.
