    So you’d prefer the admins allow you to pretend they don’t exist? I know that’s not what you’re trying to say, but its not an unreasonable extrapolation of your position from the comments you’re making. You feel the need to fight for what you believe in because it’s right to stand up for what you believe in, but you would rather you didn’t have to. I think that’s probably the most universally agreeable statement I’ve ever heard, sincerely. I would, too, like for this to be the case. We just disagree on how to achieve that happy state of affairs, though it’s nice that neither of us prefers a solution like “round up all the .ml/.world users in a big camp” unlike, you know, real world opinions…

      yes, and i wouldn’t have to fight the losing battle of stopping the proliferation of disinformation through debate if the mods used their position of power to prevent the proliferation of disinformation in the first place.

        I think the crux of the issue then might be what I am / you are calling disinformation. I see very little true disinformation on .world, and what I do see I either counter, or someone else beats me to it. It seems likely that our own ideas of what constitutes disinformation are quite different.
