https://www.reddit.com/r/conspiracy/comments/hltv45/meta_why_do_the_mods_allow_blatant_and_easily/ On a subreddit that prides itself on "the truth" and "freedom of speech" I was banned for asking why the mods leave up 100% provable lies. These 3 topics I mentioned aren't even in doubt. In fact in one of them the actual article link completely disproves the OPs submission statement and title. I properly tagged the thread as META, which absolves it of rule 2. Sabremesh then proceeded to ban 2 other users from this thread, mbd34 and S-Octantis, simply for participating in the thread. He then muted me from messaging the mods. He then insulted me, calling me a TMOR Stooge and told me to go to TMOR because someone linked a post there to mine. Hopefully this place will be more open to free speech and questioning the authority because the mods over there were definitely biased and complicit in spreading disinformation and complicit in silencing MY FREE SPEECH and my RIGHT TO QUESTION the people at the top. Here's some proof: https://imgur.com/7KaJaVL https://imgur.com/74IMHL4 https://imgur.com/gbucM91 EDIT: I have been unbanned now by Axo. A great injustice has been addressed. I thank you all for listening to me in these trying times.

Welcome, you have a voice here.
Had to catch myself, almost called you “pede” here!
"almost called you “pede” here!"
Well, I do get called a pede by the right all the time whenever I saw I don't believe pizzagate.
Wait, I mean I get called a pedo all the time by the right when I disagree.
i dont know whether you are a pedo or not, maybe you just lack education in basic maths and probabilities, and if thats not the case then i suggest you watch pedogate part 3, it silences anyone saying pizzagate is false..
When I say pizzagate I mean the specific Comet Ping pong-Ale-Pod theory, which I don't buy. Are there pedophiles out there in politics? Of course. There's pedophiles out there in everything. Teachers, priests, doctors, dentists, police, office workers, actors, producers, dancers, janitors, scientists, babysitters and yes, politicians.
I just don't go around accusing people I've never even met and have no hard evidence of being pedophiles.
pizzagate is about using code words like "Cheese Pizza" to refer to "child porn" which proven fact, pizzagate broke the story that people use these codes which was known for a very long time by investigators.
I've seen posts and comments on all ends of the political spectrums here so far, hopefully it stays this way.
I would rather the mods err on the side of leaving too much stuff up than taking stuff down, even if it's not true, that's what the comments section is for, discuss the truth of an article.
That being said banning you because you had an opinion is fucked up.
Rules are fine if they are fair, it's when they aren't applied equally that there are issues.
If you add misleading tags on only selective things and not on things that are 100% false, well then there looks to be some sort of agenda at play.
I just don't think spreading literal easily disproven lies (especially if it's by the person's own article) is something good. I'm not looking for the arbitration of fact checkers here but at some point there's a limit.
Also there's the problem of only reading the headlines in these cases. You don't know how many times since then I've seen people say Biden owns a submarine base.
Knowledge is power and false knowledge is ignorance at best and devious malice at worst.
Well I would have to see the article to know what you mean but I think it's dangerous to leave it up to people to decide what is true or false, as we know everything in reality is subjective and objective.
Also I could see that being detrimental to far our conspiracies, for example 99% of the world knows the earth is round yet the flat earthers still exist. Should we just ban any post saying the earth is flat just because we know it's false? I would rather leave it up even though I think it's stupid.
There's some things that are debatable. ( not that I believe that flat earth bullshit)
Then there's the Biden's privately owning a closed down US military submarine base. Tehre is NO metric by which this is true. Zero. 100% fabricated.
Hmm I don't about that story but from what I can tell that's actually something you wouldn't be able to say you know is 100% true, maybe there's no proof for him owning it but there's no way you could prove he didn't own it and so you have to leave it up.
Let's not get into the territory of "Fact checkers" that's what ruined the internet in the first place, we were just fine on the internet before all the censorship came into place.
HELP.
how can i report this post?
Axolotl’s moderation style is a serious blight upon r/conspiracy. The open mod logs are a damning paper trail of his subjective and arbitrary trigger finger, removing comments and banning people simply for insulting the president.
