Him being communist isn't the problem, throwing his weight around unnecessarily is what is upsetting people. And he just keeps doing it. Like he just gets in a mood and decides to ban a bunch of people for fake violations they didn't actually do. It's all logged and people with high enough status can see the logs. He goes on tirades.

At his level of power, he can apparently make some changes and then delete the log of them. Only other server admins can see it then. But I'm getting this second hand from other server admins, haven't seen it myself.

+1 to this, many Lemmy instance admins and/or community mods will just hand out bans for anything that disagrees with their politics and just slap a completely irrelevant "rule 1/2/4/whatever violation" – e.g. say something negative about Uyghur genocide or China in lemmy.ml, good chance you'll get banned for being "uncivil" possibly along with a note about western imperialism or capitalists' campaign against China or something. Depending on the day, the mod logs range from somewhat reasonable to batshit insane when it comes to admin actions.

I'm a filthy commie bastard, I say communists should be in control of these communities. Just maybe not Marxist-Leninists...
