The only people who are allowed to riot are their allies.
I mean, don't riot, rioting is stupid. But if you do riot, remember that only the establishment's shills are allowed to riot, so you're going to get the book thrown at you because you're only allowed to burn down cities for half a year in pursuit of establishment causes.

Lol "noooo you don't understand reddit admins were only supposed to be assholes to literal Nazis like people who don't vote exactly how I want them to!"
I'm making fun of the far left's propensity to pretend that all the disparate groups they pretend to stand behind are a unified bloc who all believe the same thing.
Same as when they pretend blacks as a group fully support LGBT, when by the numbers they're one of the group that support it the least.

And for really trash software.
I paid for premiere, it was crashy garbage. Big mistake.

I'm promising I won't moderate you for anything else willingly. If you fedpost so hard the RCMP gives me a call we'll cross that bridge when we cross it.
That's all thats come up so far. I'm not inclined to moderate at all if I can help it. Not a productive use of my time.
This isn't the first abuse of power by reddit admins, but many previous instances were called "good" because they were against "bad" people.
Much like the old poem out of "first they came for...", Every abuse of power is just another step towards it being used against you. People should have spoken up more earlier, but they did not speak up because they were not trade unionists.

One of the benefits of the distributed nature of the fediverse is that different instances have different standards and so nobody needs the one universal standard to fit them perfectly. Some instances are locked down and while I don't agree with it, that's their freedom to do so and it's mine to moderate as lightly as I do. We can coexist in the same fediverse, even if that fediverse looks a lot different.
I'm not your dad -- it isn't my job to make sure you're not a jerk. I'm not going to stick my fingers into discussions. I grew up with no holds barred internet debate, it's halal.
You're not mine -- Don't break my toys. Most moderation actions I've ever taken are based on systemic risks such as spam or CP, because I don't want my toys broken.
Honestly, I had some reports about one of my users being mean to someone I like, and that's when I had to decide what to do about it. The only answer I could come up with was to say "If they're bothering you, block them". It's dangerous for me to start intervening in arguments like someone's dad.

Considering who's heading up the NDP, they're probably working out how to fit in the admins purse like good little lapdogs.
I've written it before: people who think bad behavior by people with power ends with bad people, you are always next. That's why you want those in power to treat your enemies with the same consideration as your friends (not necessarily treating the same, but at least with equal consideration) because you never know when you might find yourself as an enemy.
Green energy that actually works. No magic boxes, just doing the work and getting carbon neutral power for 50 years.
