The last couple days I’ve noticed every post that shows Tesla not looking good, has been removed from some higher directive. Not deleted by OP.

and yesterday an OP tried at least twice to post an article about Tesla factory ordering $16,000 worth of pies from a small independently-owned Silicon Valley bakery, owned by a sweet hard-working lady who worked overtime all night and had to go out and buy more ingredients to get the order finished in time, only for Tesla to call up the next morning and cancel the order just as the pies were about to be delivered to Tesla. As of press time, that lady lost $16,000 on that order but hopefully Tesla came back and made up for it.

The OP posted that article twice because the first one had been removed, then I tried to comment on the second one and it had been removed also.

There seems to be some Tesla brigade working hard to remove everything from the internet that makes them look bad.

    The pie story kept getting removed because OP was posting it to irrelevant communities.

      Why is this not relevant to technology when it was perpetrated by a tech company? Was it the way they worded the post, perhaps?

        Just because Tesla did it doesn’t make it a tech story. Business? Sure, absolutely. They stiffed a bakery on a bill.

        News? Maybe? Arguably? More of a local news story than anything else.

        But it has nothing, absolutely nothing, to do with technology.

      If communities start to fill up with irrelevant stuff then it makes sense to start moderating it, but in all other cases I think the users should decide what is and is not appropriate for the sub. Post frequency isn’t nearly high enough on lemmy that allowing votes to sort things wouldn’t be sufficient.
