Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

I've looked through that thread on your LW account and I don't see any aggressiveness? Rooki was doing his best to help you and clear things up: https://lemmy.world/comment/5946853
Lemmy software is buggy man.
Ok?
This is not the original but okay. Have a great day.
I did edit it directly after sending it because i am not a native english speaker and had some hikups there. I tried to be helpfull! At least i didnt just deleted all the comments there like you
Please try to remember that not everyone on the site is a native english speaker.
And what do you mean this is not the original? There's another thread besides this one? https://lemmy.world/post/9248046
That was not the original words he used, it was much more in the tone of your first message, so it's been changed. Meaning, someone changed it to make it sound better. I didn't know I needed to take screenshots, but then again, I don't. I'm just not going to be hanging around here anymore.
One last question before I go. Again, what are your plans for curating in the future?
We don't curate - it's up to the mods to make sure reports are handled timely and the site rules are enforced. Only when that doesn't happen we step in.
Anyway you're not arguing in good faith here. You're already mod on sh.itjust.works and you came here looking for confirmation to your bias nothing else. Good luck!
Says the guy that posted to a comment that was modified. I hate being a mod, it was great here until you ruined it. I like how you dodged the question twice now about whether or not you're going to curate in the future, not currently.
What are you on about? You said you were being lied to and that one of the admins was agressive towards you so I looked.. You think I knew what words were used before? I know Rookie and I know him as someone who will go out of his way to help people.
I've been here since the very beginning
I have no idea who changed it, but I know it was. I know how this is going to play out and you guys have proven yourself to me that I should at the very least, not trust you. It's not a huge deal, you just lost me and no one is probably reading this far. I know what happened and you guys trying to belittle it or make it sound like I'm trying to do something, I have no idea what, makes me know you guys are exactly like reddit admins/mods. I'm done with that. Bye.
Man you're too much. Goodbye indeed
How would you envision us curating? We as admins have a simple goal: make sure the site rules are followed, and help if a mod requests it. If with curating you mean that we delete stuff that doesn't follow the rules, then yes we curate, if you mean that we only allow stuff we like, than no we have never and will never do that.
