Following our instance rules, we have a few cases in which we may remove community moderators from their communities:
- Grossly committing a violation of the Terms of Service
Alright so I looked at those Terms of Service.
1.1 - Attacks on People? Check. He's repeatedly gone out of his way to harass people as demonstrated both via his modlog and the litany of comments he's left on YPTB
1.2 - Discrimination of Minorities? Check as demonstrated by the fact that he's been banned from the entirety of blahaj for transphobic behavior.
3 - System Disruption? Arguable considering he's permanently ruined any credibility that /c/News and /c/World had and has driven so many users to actively avoid lemmy.world at all possible costs. Myself included now.
8 - Misinformation? Check. Removing someones post for a lack of understanding is one thing but you said that you (Admins) talked to Jordan about his behavior on the Canadian thing. Meaning that you knew it was wrong and had told him it was wrong. He repeatedly and continually doubles down on that specific thing. That is misinformation. Misinformation that is then being enforced with the abilities of a moderator. Which also then slides into 1.1 - Attacks on People as he's actively lying and punishing a dude when he did nothing wrong.
We are still discussing whether we consider his behavior a “gross violation of our ToS”, as there are definitely some arguments to be made in favor of that.
At this stage there are no valid arguments to be made against it. The evidence is overwhelming and has been piling up for months and months and months and months and months.
This is a complete no brainer. You have admins of other trusted instances refusing to have anything to do with him. You've got whole swaths of users that are outright boycotting Lemmy.world as a whole and I'm not talking about my random dumb ass. I mean for literal years I've been asked why I set up on Lemmy.world. This entire experience has not done anything to sway anyones fears but has done a lot to reconfirm them.
Better than green fascist paper ¯_(ツ)_/¯
And get annoyed with them just as fast
Oh, come on, that is just absolute fucking genius. Well fucking done, damn...
Sorry on the title fuckery then... don't mean to be the bearer of bad news there.
Jordan was indeed known for doing that. He doubled down a lot in the recent thread I made too.
How dare you
We just don't overlap so I didn't know who he was for a long time
Harder, Server Daddy
Why yes, don't mind if I do
From one pro to another, I got you bro
Honestly I was considering moving here originally after ValueSubtracted had a log surgically implanted up his ass. The name alone was cool enough...
And you say that you're happy with it but you just wait buddy.
You just wait.
You'll get sick of me soon enough
Oh I have soooooooooooo many to unpack. I've been slacking way too much lately.
