    Can you read me the second word of their post? It seems to me you are the only one here misconstruing opinion as fact.

      “My opinion is that 2+2=5”

      See? It’s not a false statement of fact as long as I call it an “opinion!” /s

      Yeah, no, that’s not how it works.

        Can you cite which “rule 1: misinformation” you used to justify removal? As far as I can see, Rule 1 states that you should remain civil when faced with ideas you don’t agree with.

          Spreading misinformation is inherently uncvil – in fact, it is much more uncivil than using a harsh tone, in terms of its capacity to degrade the quality of discussion. This community is not a ‘safe space’ for sealions, concern trolls, or other bad-faith commenters, no matter how polite.

          Speaking of moderation policies, rule 1 prohibits being insulting to other people in this community, not (for example) insulting big truck drivers in the abstract, which is why the four reports you just made will not be acted upon.

            You stretched the definition of civility several magnitudes further than I did to remove the original comment.

            The comments I reported, insulting vehicle owners’ genitalia, are much more likely to fall under most people’s understanding of “be civil”.

            You are only interested in enforcing rules to reinforce your personal views. You have no business being a moderator.

              Not only is this your second reply to the same comment, you also created a whole separate thread to complain about my moderation decisions. You have had plenty of opportunity to say your piece; now it almost seems like you’re trying to goad me into removing your comment so you can crow some more about how “abusive” I am. Well, it’s about to start working: any further harassment, personal attacks, or off-topic complaints about moderation will be removed, and I will be entirely justified in doing so.

              Also, I’ve already explained what “civility” means in this context — both in this community and in Lemmy.world as a whole — to you multiple times. If you want to have a safe space for misinformation, go somewhere else.

                It’s honestly like you’re an AI trained to mimic reddit mods

                I don’t want you to remove my comments. I want you to remove your own
