    Yeah, I think that’s pretty much how it is on most instances. Some don’t even publish a modlog. You just have to message a mod of that comm when that happens and if correcting it is important to you, even if you don’t know if it was the mod who removed it.

    Also, if you are posting only articles that reinforce the western narrative on global events, you might be considered with some suspicion around here, and for good reason. This place is a leftist space, and the kind of thing you might get praised for posting on reddit, here will be seen for what it almost certainly is: pro-US/pro-NATO propaganda. Even so, that doesn’t mean your posts will (or should) be removed if they’re posted in good faith, from a reliable source, etc. At the very least, it gives good leftists the opportunity to debunk the nonsense. However, it is very rare that someone post only those kinds of articles and genuinely are participating in good faith.

    Edit: For example, this post, the thread of which we’re making these comments in right now… it really is a trash article as has already been pointed out by Robinnn and CloudAtlas. The title alone is blatantly false. I would understand if this post got removed for misinformation as well as being from a reactionary source, even if your other post sourcing The Guardian should not have been.

      I usually just lurk and post only if I see a topic which doesn’t seem to be posted yet. Seems like eastern police state & oligarchy has been that lately, and I think it’s definitely something that is interesting from a communist human rights point of view. I don’t know if they’re taboo topics or just happenstance that I saw two of these lately before they hit here.
