Well, I have to give the OP credit for outrageous audacity.

Coming to the main community on the dedicated Star Trek instance to argue that users should subscribe elsewhere is inherently a criticism. It says a lot about the tolerance of the mods and admins here that it’s been left to stand.

I myself appreciate a well moderated community because I believe it enables more discussion not less.

This post implies that there is something wrong with this community, which in itself is the people in it, which I guess includes me.

Do you have a reference to comments having been removed? I'm on mobile and can't see the modlog.

Personally I'd prefer to be on the main community than splintered on one that was likely made by someone who wanted their own mod authority.

They are the same mods from Reddit which are well know for their intolerance to criticism.

Source? I've left many critical reviews there. Do you mean they dont allow rants? Because im ok with that

Your opinions will never be removed from the community.

So, if someone was to make the claim that in the episode “Patterns of Force”, John Gill was objectively right to introduce the planet Ekos to the fascist thought modelled on Nazi Germany because National Socialism is, as he theorized, the most efficient form of government, and the fact that the Zeons ended up persecuted and were to be victims of genocide is not only acceptable, but right and good considering who they were allegory for, that would be a welcome opinion in your community?

You can tell by the underscore that it's special.

What makes it more free and open? Banning those who disagree? You got any sources??? This place seems pretty normal.

Just to test your theory: TOS is mind numbingly boring.

My poor TOS :'(

Could you please continue the petty bickering? I find it most intriguing.

Wow, a whole community for persecution complex babies whining that they can't use dogwhistles and complain about 'wokeness' (whatever you think that means) without consequences? Nah, I'm good out here, thanks.

All right, the OP has made their sales pitch, and further discussion is unlikely to be productive.

Just a reminder: going to other spaces on the internet in order to manipulate votes or otherwise cause trouble is uncool, and we will take action against anyone we catch doing it. I'm proud to say that this does not appear to have happened in this case, so thank you all for that.

A further reminder that posts of this nature are considered off-topic for c/startrek - Fediverse posts belong on c/quarks.
