    ml: We’re going to tear down the whole capitalistic structure, nothing short of full revolution will suffice.

    Also ml: Hey stop! You’re gonna get me in trouble!

    I do the same thing when people post full text, but I’m also not claiming to be anti-establishment. I want online newspapers to make a living and survive, that’s why I do it.

      Newspapers should post full color porn in their papers. Print media wouldn’t be dying if you could get tits delivered to your doorstep daily!

      Do you think all of lemmy.ml is a single person? In this case its just the decision of a single moderator, nothing to do with admins.

        Completely fair. Also, looking at this person’s history, it looks like he decides that way for the exact same reason I do, that it’s good for authors to get paid for their work. Nothing necessarily to do with trouble.

        Nobody. As someone rightly pointed out, the mod’s concern is purely for the ethical issues, which is the same concern I would have in that situation.

        Also, the original post’s modlog is getting hilarious. Hexbear users are coming in and repeatedly posting the full text, which the mod is soberly removing over and over. It’s almost as if telling an entire community that they’re privileged to go and start trouble wherever they feel like will create a toxic environment.

          The thread was locked several hours ago because it was all just talking about talking, not talking about the actual topic. Unfortunately, several comments deliberately broke the Code of Conduct here and it seems like they were all from Hexbear users (which is something I had never heard of, I guess it’s an instance where there’s no expectation to be civil and maybe anti-social behavior is explicitly rewarded?).
