reason: insulting

Apparently having an earnest discussion about a public figure’s behavior will now be censored by Proton “mods”

https://lemmy.world/modlog/37655

Looks like they stepped up their modding recently due to unfavourable commentary on the CEOs comments regarding Trump administration

With authoritarian governments increasingly turning to censorship to silence dissent, limit information, and manipulate public opinion, Proton VPN and the anti-censorship services it provides have never been more critical.

🤡

I guess CEOs have feelings too?

Keep digging this hole Andy, clearly you don’t understand who pays for your services.

    No, you were bullying plain and simple. Your attitude discourages reasonable discussion and has no place on most instances. I hope you continue to get modded for this behavior.

      Unless you’re talking about the CEO, I can’t see who was bullied in that exchange? This whole thing feels like an extreme overreaction by the mod imo.

      PTB with a dash of BPR.

        I really don’t get adult people defending corporate esp on Lemmy haha

        Do you work there or you just spend your free time defending other man’s businesses for free?

        Say that someone with a different viewpoint is either selling something or wasting their time is an attempt at bullying someone into your way of thinking. You are attacking the person instead of the argument.

          I was calling that commenters bias who was repeating proton’s propaganda word for word.

          But all of my comments were removed… But at least that is not bullying so we are good ;)

            But your language was very much biased against the commenter and the company that is the focus of that community.

            How can you hope to expose bias without at least establishing your neutrality or citing your sources?

              This is a discussion fora, was expressing my opinion while engaging another user and questioning his. I didn’t hide my bias and I explained where it was coming from.

              My opinion was censored, his was not.
