They will also delete any comments that complain about AI at all, even though there is no rule against it.

/–edit–/
After second look, that’s not entirely true, but they definitely have a trigger finger for it and leave plenty of other “off-topic” comments.

Considering the amount of posts deleted, it should have just been locked instead of nuking comments with a negative view of AI

Here’s the thread in the screenshot:

Also, here you can see other’s seem to think this was an attempt to silence dissent (though, I don’t think that this coming from drag is a great point for it):

Just look at this completely insane comment from an instance admin:

  • Eugene V. Debs' Ghost@lemmy.dbzer0.comEnglish

    • Goes into a community.
    • Ignores the rules and community and says they’re wrong for doing something in their free time on their own space.
    • Gets the rules applied to them and told to stop, golden rule is applied to them when they were being rude in the first place.
    • Complains about mod abuse on another community, claiming victim that rules were enforced on them.

    Can we leave the “I have my first amendment rights to say anything I want, anywhere I want!” reddit bullshit on reddit? I know lemmy.world is Reddit 2 but man this is weird.
