As is stated in the title, I created and moderated !prolife@lemmy.world. According to the modlog, this community was removed 10 days ago. The modlog doesn’t show me who removed the community. I understand the community wouldn’t necessarily be everyone’s cup of tea, but the actions taken seem improper.

EDIT

After making my case via email to info@lemmy.world, I received the following response:

“We would rather not have a prolife community on our instance. We were getting a lot of reports about it and we have enough on our plate. I’m sure you can find an instance that better suits your needs.”

This community was incredibly small (19 subscribers), had less than 10 postings, and had several waves of trollings. Yet, the admins of lemmy.world would rather do away with this community than bother to review if it has broken any rules or is the target of trolling/bullying. I take nothing away from the right to run their instance as they see fit. Perhaps the Code of Conduct should also explicitly state “we reserve the right to do anything we want, regardless of any published rules”.

I don’t blame the lemmy.world admins for not wanting to pay to host that kind of hurtful community.

Anyone can create their own instance where they’re free to talk about restricting reproductive healthcare from women all they want.

Guess being anti-basic human rights for women isn’t allowed shrug

Good.

“Why aren’t we allowed to gather and advocate the destruction of women’s rights and autonomy?!”

Fuck off Fascist, go cry about being oppressed while you support gay and trans lawmakers being silenced across the country

You know what? Fuck you and your ‘fascist’ label. Fascists are those that wholesale commit genocide, which is what abortion is. Fuck you for butting in where your response added no value and only showed your ass.

“The only real fascist is the fascists who won’t let me fascist, oh also I don’t know what words mean”

You’re an ignorant fascist too, shocker. Continue on arguing against rights for women because nobody ever loved you willingly.

Is everything you don’t like ‘fascist’? Maybe you ‘punch nazis’ too. Keep going. You almost have your Reddit insult bingo card filled up.

Misinformation/propaganda is against the rules of the instance and generally bad for society.
