I was wondering if there were systems in place for users to report mods who are just ignoring the code of conduct and just abusing their power of moderator as a whole?

I've seen that we could get in touch via Mastodon, but I don't have an account for that unfortunately and I was curious to know if there were other ways

Genuine question, why do you try to posture yourself as uninvolved in drama but regularly plug the anticommunist drama community specializing in out of context screen grabs run by a gamergate right-winger seemingly whenever relevant? It seems more like you're trying to sow seeds of anticommunism without taking the blame for it.

I link to !yepowertrippinbastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com any time a mod power trips, the most recent examples being the Lemmy.world decisions to remove comments about jury nullification.

If (removed) screens are taken out of context, people who want to add the context can come in and explain it.

If that mod bans them, then it's power tripping, it's going to be reported to !yepowertrippinbastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com and then many people (including me) will probably stop using that community

You understand that by posting the links that that's tacit approval of them and an endorsement, correct? If you agree that MWoG is as I describe, then that implies endorsement of that behavior. Moreover, leftists are banned from that comm if they contextualize, it's explicitly a right wing left-punching comm. You do not post right-punching left wing comms, at least not in my experience, and as such shows a clear pattern.

Again, I ask, why? It's fairly obvious to me based on your actions that you are trying to stir up anticommunist drama, and I am giving you the platform to explain yourself, your reasoning, and explain the bias you show.

Alright, to be honest that whole right-wing issue with MWoG was kind of on my backlog.

I remember seeing a few problematic threads from the main mod in the past, especially advocating to keep federation with exploding-heads:

@goat@sh.itjust.works, do you still stand by those comments?

I just had a look at the modlog (https://sh.itjust.works/modlog/25693), there seems to be indeed a few strange cases for "apologia". Unfortutanely, we can't see the comments in this cases.

I'll edit my comment in the meantime to remove the mention to MWoG.

While we are discussing, what is your stance on !yepowertrippinbastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com ?

[-] Cowbee@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 week ago

Appreciate the clarity.

As for yeptb, I don't have the same familiarity with it. From what I know, it rightly targets LW moderators so it's less dedicated to an anti-Left drama circle, but it's still a drama comm so I don't personally care about it either way. Dbzer0 is something I critically support, they aren't nearly as bad as other instances can be but frustratingly attract the "techie western anarchist" archetype that seems to never be able to engage honestly with Marxist theory. That said, it's a mixed bag overall, a lot are good comrades as well.

That's my 2 major cents there.

Thank you for your insight, have a good one!
