I can't see evidence that it's banned. I'm on .ml and can see it just fine. It would be in the modlog if it were banned.

Complaining about bans for posts on lemmy.ml is like complaining about birdshit on your car when parking under a tree.

Friendly reminder that we can FOIA first and last names of every ICE employee and their salary, and position/title.
Every last one of them.
It's a good and legal public list just waiting to be collected nice and legally, and shared with the taxpayers as per our still existing rights.
This assumes the department or people involved with fulfilling these requests hasn't already been compromised or shut down. The request means nothing when it never gets looked at.
Ultimately, this would come down to the judiciary. They (ICE) could stonewall all they want. Those documents are on file, and you better believe the judiciary will exercise every ounce of strength they've got in producing them.
It might get delayed unduly for quite some time, but those names are the public's. Not a damn thing any person who decided to accept the job can do about that to stop the public.
They’re right. I’m not defending the ban, but it is political. This is why MAGA elected Trump.
ICE is following Trump’s orders, which are an unconstitutional violation of the Fifth Amendment. When the Alien Enemies Act was used during WWII, even the Nazis had due process before being deported.
ICE's actions are political.
Discussing ICE's actions is not necessarily political, unless you consider human rights violations to be necessarily political as a topic.
Silencing discussion of human rights violations implies tacit support for the action, so I guess we know now where .ml stands. Any claim of leftist ideology on their part is a sham, they just have a hard-on for authoritarians.
Of course its political, what else would it be? You are talking about peoples rights (a political concept) being breached by an administration (poltical) using an arm of the government (political) as a paramilitary force (political).

Also, the community we're in has a rule against moderation complaints, so I would really crosspost to [email protected]

Since when does lemmy.ml ban political content? Is it on a specific community?
I'm on .ml and I've seen this video several times now.
Also looking at the mod log it looks like OP is lying to generate outrage and anti-tankie bait. I'm shocked I tell you!
They only ban content that criticizes authoritarianism.
Yep, it's very much "rules for thee but not for me" at .ml

Why are you posting on ML in the first place?
It's a tankie cesspool with instance-wide rules for white-washing genocide.
There are a few normal communities, but more and more of the normal ones are moving off of ML.
.ml should be defederated from lemmy.world tbh
There are still many non-tankie, normal tech communities on ML though.
I am seeing a slow tendency to move off ML.
There are also users on .ml that aren't tankies. There are even tankies on other instances(!)
Sloooow

Can you cite where you posted this and what the reason for removal was?

My guess is someone is afraid thinking about this content might threaten their politics.
Knowing what I know about the politics of the .ml admins, this doesn't make any sense unless it was removed by a community moderator.
Does it even fucking matter what’s banned in what echo chamber??
Politics: the activities of the government, members of law-making organizations, or people who try to influence the way a country is governed
All the comments against the decision i have seen on this post argue why the rule should be bypassed, not why this respects the rule
