If? You can believe what you want, but dang and the other mods have said repeatedly that their owners are completely hands off. If you want to argue that the mods know where their bread is buttered and act accordingly, have at it, but don't pretend you aren't creating a (meaningless in the grand scheme of things) conspiracy theory.
> I am also amused at the glut of anons happy to say I’m wrong in how something works, yet conveniently neglect to explain how I’m wrong or provide the “correct” perspective to have. At this point in my eTenure, I just assume that anyone saying I’m wrong but refusing to articulate the how/what/when/where/why of it are, themselves, actually wrong.
It's a waste of time to argue with someone who is convinced they are right about something with zero evidence supporting their position. So again, believe what you want, but be aware of what you're doing.
- JohnMakin 1y agoWebsite moderation and discourse usually if not always reflects the values and beliefs of the people that own it. They don’t even have to be directly involved for this to be the case - but it’d be really silly to say this site doesn’t take a particular slant in favor of the people that own it. Whatever the cause that may be is of course a matter of debate, but pretending it doesn’t exist is silly.
