I’m trying to work out why there are posts in here about users being banned from communities, when neither the user or the community are under their control. Is this being mirrored from somewhere, or is this something that’s limited to what people on their instance see?

They are also, apparently, banning users that have never been to their instance.

      They didn’t list a specific comment that got me banned. I’m left of liberals so that might be a factor.

          You’re making the slippery slope argument. Being left does not automatically make you authoritarian.

            It was a question, you can be left liberal and right liberal, liberal is just less government involvement im stuff.

            Politics isn’t just a single line from left to right.

              Liberalism is a centrist ideology that still permits inequality as it does not go far enough in addressing societal discrimination.
