I joined two days ago because I was having a really rough time. This morning, I’m trying to have a conversation about ADHD and how different people’s brains process things differently. Only to have multiple comments deleted and conversations interrupted by my new friend’s posts getting deleted. I saw the reasoning, and I don’t agree. Then after getting called out for their actions, the mods banned them from the community.

I’ve heard about it before, but this is the first time I’ve ever encountered some real life power trippin mods.

I’m sure it won’t be long before this also gets deleted and I’m banned. Go ahead. I’ve already walked out and unsubscribed. This is a very unhealthy space, and I feel bad for any others who have been hurt by this kind of action. I look forward to seeing the rest of you anywhere but here!

    This reminds me…I’ve joined a discord server focused on mental health. The server had been shut down in the past for having some sort of severe issues. The gist of it is that if you put a bunch of people with dubious mental stability together, you can end up with a really rough time if you don’t have extensive moderation. So now the server has even more strict moderation and specific operating hours. A necessary evil in such a space like that.

    Wishing the best for you and your friend.
