I posted this meme to the Lemmy Shitpost community. I reckoned that it might generate a bit of debate, and would probably end up locked, but the entire post got deleted, and moreover, I’m now forbidden from sharing political posts to the community. Political posts are not against the rules of the community.

I have reason to believe that the post was deleted not because it was controversial, but because the moderator (Decoy321) disagreed with the political slant of the meme. The reason I find this suspicious is because other controversial posts, such as one about veganism remains up, and Decoy321 seemed to enjoy the fact it was controversial:

    It can be bad because I think its bad.

    I’ll admit, when I discuss morality in other context’s (especially lately as I’ve lost my patience) I’ll use the word “evil”. In reality though, the word I mean is “bad” but with an extreme emotionally charged intensity.

    I don’t believe in “good” in the sense of divinity, the word “evil” is opposite of divinity. Divine vs Evil is mysticism.

    I do however believe in good things and bad things. Technically subjective, but objectively they are things contained with in human minds. Positive and negative experiences and consequences. Good things are things we want and need. Bad things are things we avoid and hurt. This applies to us individually and collectively.

    So sure, I don’t believe in divine vs evil. I only believe in good vs bad.
