    The politest comment in a wave of kneejerk backlash is still part of that wave.

            It’s a report asking the mods to remove pizzacake comics for being pizzacake comics.

              It’s a story that some random posted. Dude isn’t even a mod here.

              Even then, a single person abusing the report function isn’t a genuine call for prohibition by anyone.

              Your downvote doesn’t change reality. Dave, the person you linked, isn’t a moderator here. They weren’t relaying a mod report, they were just a user telling a story.

              You made a factually inaccurate statement and doubled down on it.

                And that marginal overstep in describing kneejerk hatred changes the discussion in some meaningful way. There’s still multiple people overtly saying ‘let’s never post this’ or ‘I automatically downvote this.’ There’s still people accusing the author of “misandry” for describing, essentially, this thread. The silent downvote was to avoid making this sort of comment, where I fully expect the reply to be some ‘ah-ha!’ that misses the point: people absolutely hate this comic for no sensible reason, and they’re not shy about it.

                  You posted your comments in reply to my comment specifically, while all I have asked is for this drama shitstorm to not come here on lemmy. I never accused her of misandry, never asked for any prohibition of her work, never even made any mention of the comic at hand or the topic it alludes to. Yet I was lumped in with incels and accused of trying to enforce prohibition.

                  Personally, I don’t care why people have feeling about this comic creator or whether or not those reasons are sensible. I just don’t want to see this exact shit here. That’s it.

                  Meanwhile you’ve been making specific accusations and basing them on what seems to be nothing more than your gut feelings and assumptions, and wouldn’t retract them even when this fact was pointed out.

                  If you have issues with others and their treatment of this creator, I suggest you bring it up in replies to them, not to me.

                  Genuinely, what is your goal? How would you like for this interaction to proceed or conclude?

                    Your root comment is the drama.

                    I am specifically taking issue with your treatment of this creator.

                    I want you to stop having and publicly expressing a kneejerk reaction to seeing this artist’s work, if there’s no justifiable reason. You didn’t say “can we please leave the drama on reddit?” You said: “can we please leave pizzacake on reddit?”

                I am in fact an admin of this instance, and that was in fact a user report and not a story I was telling.

                  I stand corrected then, sorry.

                  I am surprised to learn that while user mod status is listed on the user page, apparently admin status is not. I wonder if that’s just an oversight or by design.

                  I’m also surprised to learn that user reports apparently are sent to instance admins rather than community moderators; that’s not how I would have expected.

                  Thank you for clarifying and correcting my error, cheers. ✌️

                    Reports are sent to community mods and to the instance admins of the community, the poster/commenter, and the reporter.
