Mods and bans on Lemmy (lemmy.ml)

Is it just me, or are lots of mods just banning anyone with a dissenting opinion?

I like to be a bit contrarian, play devil's advocate, stuff like that, so sometimes I know what I post isn't going to jive with the community I'm posting in, but I think there's value in that. It starts a discussion and it offers a different pov.

Maybe I'm wrong and stupid, and someone can reply and explain why. I think that would be a net benefit. But what happens instead is my post gets deleted and I get banned. :/

I genuinely think this is a real issue and it leads to echo chambers, but am curious to see what other ppl think? Am I just salty? :)

It's funny how all of y'all are rooting for this war to continue. You know it's going to continue to be shit for Europe, right? I hope the war mongers get to actively participate since they love it so much.

Hard for anyone to see that any other way than hostile and as deliberately misunderstanding the situation.

Generally speaking, whenever you are telling somebody what they think, instead of reading what they think and then responding to it with your own response, you're in the wrong. No one here wants the war to continue.
