~~They will also delete any comments that complain about AI at all, even though there is no rule against it.~~

/--edit--/
After second look, that's not entirely true, but they definitely have a trigger finger for it and leave plenty of other "off-topic" comments.

Considering the amount of posts deleted, it should have just been locked instead of nuking comments with a negative view of AI

Here's the thread in the screenshot:

Also, here you can see other's seem to think this was an attempt to silence dissent (though, I don't think that this coming from drag is a great point for it):

Just look at this completely insane comment from an instance admin:

you are viewing a single comment's thread

Since I don't think it would be right to assume you're just stupid, the only explanation for mischaracterizing me is that it's intentional in order to demean me and make it seem like you have some sort of valid reason for it.

You're making some big assumptions on the intentions behind my actions. Apparently, to you, if you respond when you get a notification because people reply to your comments, that means a "tireless devotion". I came across a post calling out the moderation actions of a thread I was a part of and commented on that, then shortly after I realized any meaningful discussion was never going to happen and I blocked the instance, I then come across a post on "fuck_AI" and thought I had a very relevant experience to post here. And now I am on a "crusade".

Well, it's a good thing you only have intentions of being an asshole, because the alternative would require being pretty damn stupid.

... I then come across a post on "fuck_AI"

For a moment you had me going there, but no, it really does say OP beside your username.

Yes, I came across another post on this community and remembered it existed. After having a very recent experience that is relevant to the community, in that an instance admin is pushing an "AI or else" attitude, I thought it would be something people would be interested to hear about.

You're making me second guess that your intention was to be an asshole. But, now that I think of it, it could be both!
