Ok, so, I crossposted the documentary “Four Horsemen 2012” to [email protected] and it got removed for not being “a solarpunk themed documentary” - all good, it was my mistake I didn’t check it’s a community for documentaries with a specific there/topic.

Then, I wake up to the message from the SAME PERSON ([email protected]) removing the same documentary from [email protected] which I assume is a GENERAL PURPOSE instance for documentaries about all topics. Their reason was: “I’m going to remove this documentary out of solidarity for Ukraine” even tho the documentary had NOTHING to do with Ukraine and doesn’t even mention it ONCE! I’m super confused. The rules for this community don’t even say anything about certain documentaries being allowed or not. What is happening? Ideological censorship?

    Did you look into what the mod said? “If you’re interested in what that means, Adam Curtis has a good explanation YT, and the entire documentary Hypernormalization is a great watch.” - you might find something in that documentary that could clear up some confusion? Not sure though as I don’t know what the mod meant either, and can’t watch the doc at the mo as I’m at work.
