Why do you allow misinformation communities like endlesswar? (quokk.au)

!endlesswar@lemmy.ca

Seems to be purely to post misinformation with repeated claims that Russia is innocent and the US caused the Ukraine situation, that they're stopping Ukraine from agreeing to Russia's super amazing peacedeals, etc.

This is the sort of garbage one would expect to find on ML or Hex, is CA intended to be the same low quality instance?

I am with you...

OP, if you see misinformation correct the record so that everyone else can see there is a dispute and they can make up their own mind.

Hard Suppression of opinions is not good IMHO

Let idiots speak and let their idea be challenged.

Tankies and political subs expose their bias via the modlog and that's the point.

Chanllange them and let them use that hammer so everyone can see their idiotic positions what they are

If the modlog is that questionable, they should be given a fair chance to provide receipts for their censorship of users trying to correct the record, and if they can't do that fairly, it should be on the admins to remove a community that is both spreading misinformation and censoring verifiable corrections.

I feel it shouldn't be only up to the users filtering / monitoring modlogs of all the communities.
