c/libertyhub@lemmy.blahaj.zone <mailto:c/libertyhub@lemmy.blahaj.zone> is full of transphobic trolls (lemmy.ca)

The community c/libertyhub@lemmy.blahaj.zone states in the sidebar it's a community for leftists and post leftists, but if you actually look at the posts the mods are making, it's almost nothing but trolling and telling people not to vote in the general election.

This rhetoric is especially dangerous to trans people, who this instance is supposed to be a safe space for, and West Bank Palestinians. If the USA elects a fascist president, there is guaranteed to be multiple genocides of society's most vulnerable groups, in addition to what the US is already doing in Gaza.

The mods on Liberty Hub openly troll their users and ban people for advocating left wing or harm reducing positions. The only action that is allowed on the sub is advocating political inaction in the face of genocide, taking a centrist position with regards to open fascism.

This community has absolutely no place on Blahaj Zone and should be removed by the admins.

propaganda noun

1 : a congregation of the Roman curia having jurisdiction over missionary territories and related institutions 2: the spreading of ideas, information, or rumor for the purpose of helping or injuring an institution, a cause, or a person 3: ideas, facts, or allegations spread deliberately to further one's cause or to damage an opposing cause also : a public action having such an effect

Idead spread for the purpose of furthering a cause. I think Liberty Hub's anti-voting posts meet both definition 2 and definition 3. (Merriam Webster)

This post is propaganda, time to take it down, your rules not mine 🤷‍♂️

Yes, this post is propaganda. If you look closely at what I've been saying I don't have a moral opposition to propaganda. What I'm saying is propaganda needs to be taken seriously beyond the individual. This post isn't transphobic trolling, which is the thing I actually want removed.

Maybe you could link and report some of the transphobic trolling? That would speed along its removal. All the links I saw just had political memes.

Ada already cleaned it up. That's why the link in my post doesn't work.

Ada said she was dealing with insults to other users, I think she’d remember to mention transphobic trolling on the part of the mods.

If you’re not going to bother reading or responding to my criticism of the reach you had to go through to arrive at ‘anti-Biden = transphobic’, then I have no reason to continue the conversation.

I was mistaken. There's no modlog entry associated with deletion of the linked post. It seems the Liberty Hub mods deleted it themselves.
