Let’s welcome the new moderators of c/politics.
Thanks for not answering my question:
Did you even look at their post histories or just add the first people to volunteer?
While I’m not sure if you’re accurately portraying their position (i havent seen this myself), you have a point with this question that I’d also like an answer to.
i havent seen this myself
Feel free to take a look.
There’s also claiming Hunter Biden’s cocaine was found in the White House, and pretend ignorance that christofascism is even a thing, and just in general defending anything shitty republican do or say.
There’s lots of other /politics on Lemmy tho, so it’s not as bad as when this happened on reddit. Plenty of options besides this one.

That sort of duplicity is not something anyone should want in a mod. I’ve seen mods on reddit pretend that a guy literally spouting nazi slogans was just fine because he translated them into English first.

No. I said that is the argument of some republicans.

No, I was wondering how the user I was replying to defined it- because from online discussions I’ve been on in the past everyone defines fascism differently.
Might be wise to add an age and education attainment requirement to be a moderator. I’m probably in the minority here but I appreciated the mods at r/politics. Mind you I’ve been temporarily-banned a few times from that sub, justifiably so (usually for stooping to the level of the uncivil). They were generally fair and didn’t seem to exploit their positions from what I experienced in ten years there.
It’s just too ironic that people left reddit because spez didn’t understand how hard modding is…
And Lemmy is full of communities were the mods have no idea what they’re doing, they just signed up a couple days earlier than everyone else.
Especially without established mod tools/bots like reddit had. It’s going to be a shitshow.
How would education attainment be verified- and how could that seen as anything but alienating the working class. Also, what would be a good minimum age*?
Say, at least a PhD to post on here and minimum of 18 years old, maximum 32
So, I won’t admit to anyone else but aidan, but I looked at aidans and he seemed fine, while his opinion on schooling I may not agree with at all, doesn’t mean it should affect his status as to be moderator, as both of us agreed, he was part of our 2 pick we need.

That’s the problem…
You look at that kid’s account history and think there isnt an issue.
It doesn’t make anyone think better of him, it made us all realize you’re likely just as bad.
