This is a community for vegans by vegans. Its aim is to enable discussions about veganism first and foremost. We don’t owe it to carnists to let them come here and walk all over our values just because they feel offended by our existence. This place is meant to be a safe space that is welcoming and kind.
After several incidents of brigrading by carnists and at the request of community members, I (and others on the mod team) have decided to be more strict in enforcing the rules here and ensure that the conversation isn’t overrun by anti-vegans.
I’ve cleaned up the rules a bit and made it a bit shorter, I’d like feedback on that (also any mods feel free to change them up, it’s more of a draft lol). I’ve also started following up by looking at the modlog and banning repeat offenders.
We also have new mods and I am sure that there would be room for others once we organise what we have currently. If you want to help now, please report comments/posts especially the ones that make the community unsafe for vegans.
I’m committed to making this place much less hostile, but oh my, some of these posts really do blow up at the worst of times.
Please, please, please be kind, not just to other humans and yourself, but to all the earthlings ✌️
I did some digging through the modlogs (which you can view as well). You haven’t had any comments removed from this community. I checked the other vegan comms and you were banned from the hexbear vegan community https://hexbear.net/modlog/50
Ah! I see! Lemmy is whacky like that isn’t it? There’s like twenty of each community.
Thanks for clearing that up.
There’s like twenty of each community.
Simultaneously the best and worst part of lemmy.
