c/conservative has been left modless. I’d like to request to moderate and clean up any misinformation on this community.
I am consistently online here and prepared to take on the responsibility.
Thank you for your consideration!
The requested community link is !conservative@lemmy.world
Additionally, I’d also like to request !fastfood@lemmy.world as for that one it seems a spam account created it and has since been abandoned for months
What is .worlds mission for a comm?
I’ve looked through the legal.Lemmy.world/ToS docs and there isn’t anything about mods who take over an abandoned community that needs to “maintain the spirit of the comm”
There’s a brief blurb about not attacking specific users or groups, but if we go by that, then there’s quite a few different “circle jerk” like comms here that would fall under that and should also be locked
If we go by the “vibes” of the .world user base at large, it’s quite clear that c/conservative as it was, was wholly unwelcome. Nearly every single post was downvoted into oblivion. It’s also quite clear that the meme posts made after it went modless are what’s welcome.
If we judge it by the user base at large, the .world user base wants it to be a meme comm
Yeah attacking a group, that’s exactly what you’re doing.
You’re confusing popular at scale, with correct for community. The tyranny of the majority is a problem on Lemmy.
You can make your own new community, and you can say all the s*** you want to about conservatives. You’re just trying to take a space away from a group you don’t like. I get it, but it’s not right
An LW admin is going to have to clarify what “group” means in the context of ToS, it’s quite ridiculous to ban dunking on a national/global group.
There’s no such thing, this line of thinking is what led to the actual problem of the tyranny of the minority that plagues US Politics to begin with, but that’s veering off topic.
It’s also not like we’re running off people who are coming in with good faith arguments and sound sources to begin with.
Your initial post advocated for that exact outcome, “shutdown and locking” the comm is functionally equivalent to taking “a space away from a group you don’t like.”
We’re not taking a space away, they are free to, and in fact already do, make their own instances. They do not have a right to spread their “content” everywhere they go like some sort of missionary.
The fact you have spend this thread downvoting me while we discuss what a good moderator would look like tells me your not the right fit to be a moderator.
It’s clear your just looking for a fight, and you want to be a moderator to have a one sided fight with the very few actual conservatives on lemmy.
Lmao, I thought we were having a decent debate, but ig you were unable to counter my latest points so you switched to complaining about…how I vote? Even though it’s clear others are downvoting you as well lol
