Comment on Asking for moderator Rooki's removal for misconduct

mozz@mbin.grits.dev ⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

an instance admin (not a community moderator) stepped into a community (!vegan), removed a bunch of "disinformation" comments

Is this true? I thought Rooki just posted a counterpoint, not removed anything. Maybe I am wrong.

  Quite right.
  
  Someone posted that a vegan diet is ok for cats
  
  Someone else posted that no the fuck it isn't
  
  !vegan mod removed the previous post
  
  Admin (presumably Rooki) restored the deleted comment and deleted comments that a vegan diet is ok for cats
  
  Mod flipped the polarity of the reversals back again, and banned Rooki
  
  Rooki unbanned themselves, flipped the polarity back again (so now it's only the anti-vegan-cat comments)
  
  So I was wrong, I think. The !vegan mods did delete some of the debunking first, but it wasn't from Rooki. I think.
  
  Also, it's still going on; the mods are as of a few hours ago still undeleting vegan-cat advocacy comments and banning people who disagree with them.

I haven’t checked the logs myself but am going by the initial post, some of the comments, and a similar thread on !vegan itself.
