I just found out that there's a local mod abuse community. Cool!
A lemmy.ml admin (https://lemmy.ml/u/cypherpunks) censored blasphemy, claiming rule 1 "No bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia".
Here is the original comment: https://lemmy.zip/comment/20729770 and post: https://lemmy.ml/post/34489826
The admin also censored this image: https://lemmy.ml/pictrs/image/39f58cfd-d6b7-4fdc-bbf6-b8c4b465c423.png (see here: https://i.ibb.co/YFHb5KxK/image.png)
I am not sure if everyone agrees with me, but I believe blasphemy should be a right. Blasphemy isn't bigotry!

They have that echo chamber thing going where anything they don't like is called something bad. Either they don't know what bigotry really is or they know they are just making up a reason. Either way I have no use for children's tantrums.
I’ve heard similar things from blahaj.zone
Seems to be something frequent on Lemmy, sadly
Its the childishly simple result of people who can't accept that their opinions are just that, their opinion. They really don't know what the words they are calling people mean since they have no capacity to look at things any way other than emotionally. They feel some way about things and since they feel it they can't imagine it could be any other way.
Everyone has things that cause their emotions to out pace their reason. If you are mindful of this you can spot it in yourself. Those that never question their motivations are the ones that end up like some of these mods. They want some kind of power over their life to offset how powerless they feel in the real. They take a fanatical hard line stance on something and lose perspective.
That’s a really nice explanation
I hope I don’t end up like this
