As a consequence, !asklemmy@lemmy.world mods got a lot of resentment from people wanting to discuss the elections on that community, when they decided to temporarily ban the topic as well: https://lemmy.world/post/21696356
I’m not sure what the issue is - Ask Lemmy doesn’t seem like a suitable place for political discussion, especially as there is a community just for that purpose.
I don’t see it either, but some users literally called the rule “censorship”
These people really make the liberal left look bad. And the claim is always that we’re level headed :/
There isn’t, is the point of the meme. Until now at least. Politics doesn’t allow general discussion via self posts.
The politics community always had those rules though.
The rule on asklemmy is weird though. I was surprised to see it.
“We’ve always done it this way” is obviously a super thoughtful response which completely justifies this and any other situation where it can be stated.

Interesting, I wasn’t aware. There seems like there were still megathread discussions: https://old.reddit.com/r/politics/comments/1e8sabh/megathread_president_biden_announces_that_he_will/
