so you punished a mod for banning someone from their own sub?

Yes we have 4 mod rules that we enforce, in order to prevent the echo-chamber mod-fiefdom situation that occurred on reddit: https://saidit.net/s/SaidIt/comments/w6s/saidit_rules_for_moderators/

The subs belong to the users, not to the mods. Letting mods go nuts with power is why reddit is now so broken.

Moderators should have the right to choose who participates on their forum. We shouldn't be forced by default to listen to the inane drivel of leftists. Their rhetoric has subsumed the entire internet and been enshrined. Why does it need to be given a place here on Saidit? Especially when SJWs are responsible for getting so many of us banned from other websites (thus necessitating the creation of Saidit in the first place)?

This website is a bastion of free speech, true. But the only people who have been systematically denied that privilege has been conservatives. That is where Saidit draws its core audience from. We are being done a disservice by being forced to tolerate SJWs and their verbal diarrhea.

You can, as long as you follow the saidit mod rules. We want to avoid echo-chambers here, because that's what destroyed reddit. If your ideology is so weak it cannot tolerate any questioning or differing opinions, then it's not a very good ideology.

False. And when you try and deny others their free speech based on your victimhood, you're no better than those you claim to despise.

We have higher standards here on saidit for free speech and open debate, and we will not allow you to censor others simply because you got yourself in to a mod position. These are the rules. https://saidit.net/s/SaidIt/comments/w6s/saidit_rules_for_moderators/

All you have to do, is tolerate dissenting opinions. Not asking a lot here.
