Using your mod powers to decide who is allowed and not allowed to speak is not very anarchist of you, @mambabasa@slrpnk.net

    Sir/Madam, you started a conversation quite−closely-linked to the election in an anarchist community in the first place. Saying “it’s much better to vote for this candidate instead” is not the same as supporting the election; I don’t see why lesser-evilism is bannable at all. I’m a beginner anarchist myself and there’s nothing I found about working on other things/lesser evils when certain things aren’t feasible.

      Lesser evilism is bannable because it’s still supporting evil. If you support the lesser evil, you’re supposed to be ashamed at your choice, not provide ideological cover for evil. Choosing to provide ideological cover for evil is a bannable offence.
