  • If the piece was merely sharing an opinion, it does seem like over-moderation to remove something like that. I often take the approach of surface-level content moderation, as I don’t have the time or desire to vet every single link and keep track of which sites have the “right” viewpoints on certain things. Vote-based sites like Lemmy or Reddit often are sufficient to weed out bad links; a mod’s job should be to remove content that is obviously against the plain meaning interpretation of the community rules. If someone posts a Nazi flag here with the title “Hitler Rules,” it would obviously be against any rules about “hateful content.” However, this is the equivalent of someone saying, “This article about which bottled water brands are the best is bad because the person who wrote it said something mean to me a few years ago.”
