Are you the lemmy cops? Is it your responsibility to chase any link to someone's website across every instance and make sure people know they are a bit of a jackass?

If you think GoL should be a banned source, take it up with the various moderators. If you think only primary sources should be allowed (which I actually agree with), that is also a discussion to be had.

But rushing in to berate people for linking to one of the most popular news aggregators for a story that people would be interested in because you don't like the guy who owns that site? All you are doing is discouraging people from making posts in the future.

Which is the problem with dragging community/subreddit drama everywhere you go. It just makes the site a much more hostile place for everyone. And we really aren't big enough to be doing that.

🚨 🚨 🚨 FREEZE! STOP RIGHT THERE!! 🚨 🚨 🚨

As the official lemmy police I am arresting you for defending a mad lad caught abusing powers. You do not have to say anything. But, it may harm your defence if you do not mention when questioned something which you later rely on in court. Anything you do say may be given in evidence.

Jokes aside.. I do think people should be allowed to post opinions an discuss other peoples behavior. Gol dude was caught abusing his powers, which is a disgusting thing to do, personally don't mind him being called out for that in a post here and there. It's not an attack on the poster, it's a reminder to folks who the guy really is.

I'm all for the truth, no matter who it is.
