    My point was the indecency of prosecution without explanation.

    It’s impractical too, to boot somebody without telling them why, as somebody else in this thread pointed out.

    Another person in this thread suggested that such discussions are wasted effort. That such discussion, and the healthy society it engenders, is not the aim of those in control. (Ie the mods’ bosses). That they simply want max control for min cost.

      Using inflammatory language as a way to make your point seem more valid is just manipulative, and betrays the general lack of a point that you have.

      You were not “prosecuted”, and I’ll be generous and assume you meant “persecuted”, which again is such an inappropriate use of that word given the mildness of the indecency you experienced.

      Is it a dick move to ban without explanation? Yes. Most sites don’t do that though, so I assume you have some very specific grievance that prompted this.

      You weren’t banned from the world, and there are many instances in the fediverse, so take your speech to any number of instances where the mods aren’t dicks.

        Actually, it’s the rule in Lemmy and Reddit. Apple’s app store has a similar policy.

        So yes, ubiquitous. A perversion worth discussing. So here we are.
