Fake vegans - Sopuli

Vegans being banned and comments being deleted from [email protected] [/c/[email protected]] [https://lemmy.world/c/vegan] for being fake vegans. From my perspective, the comments were in no way insulting and just part of completely normal interaction. If this decision reflects the general opinion of the mod team, then from my perspective, the biggest vegan community on Lemmy wants to be an elitist cycle of hardcore vegans only, not allowing any slightly different opinion. Which would be very unfortunate. PS: In contrast to the name of this community, I don’t want to insult anyone here being a ‘bastard’. I just want to post this somewhere on neutral ground. I would really appreciate an open discussion without bashing anyone.

Knee-jerk reactionary vegans? In a vegan community?

You don’t say!

i swear a lot of these are plants… the way to degrade leftist online spaces is to just be so extreme it’s absurd and everyone feels outcast….
of course first they grow their little sub until it’s the biggest one, and then they start pissing everyone of as much as possible by being so much more communist, trans, vegan, whatever….
then you walk away feeling disconnected from vegans….
like did you see the person with “dragonfucker” as their preferred pronoun? a bunch of people got banned for saying it’s obviously concern trolling and nobody’s gender is actually “dragonfucker”…. for gatekeeping or some dumb shit…
how are these established mods with huge communities? they must’ve taken over or been fake in the beginning…

Vegan Sub

Plants

I see what you did there :)

wow, the power tripping mods removed my comment… i guess they like irony
I removed your comment because it’s out of topic and it’s bringing up a completely other drama to spike controversy. I.e. you’re trolling.
While we’re on the topic of modding in this thread, GrammarPolice got banned, but it doesn’t look like the comment that they were banned for has been removed. Is this intentional?
If there’s a good-faith counter-aguments already on that thread and might leave the originating comment up so that their effort is not lost.

I was talking specifically about the giant ascii art with a profane curse as the only text.

But I just had a look and it seems like it was removed, but that the removal hasn’t federated to my instance properly. Dammit, I thought the recent update had fixed LW’s federation problems.

Ah yeah, the federation of this stuff is kinda weird. Maybe it’s because I removed it after I banned them.
