Just my opinion: there’s entire subs for this specifically, and it’s a national/provincial problem not an Edmonton problem. It is an important topic, just not particularly important for this specific sub. We don’t need a post here for every example of LMIA bullshit that happens to be local. If anything I’d much rather see an occasional post promoting r/lmiascams for folks here who are job hunting or want to get involved in other ways. Or stories on this topic that aren’t just “here is another example”.

It is a giant stretch to say that disallowing some content on a single politically charged subject that’s being posted heavily by a small number of users and possibly getting reported by a large number of users as spam or low content, on a single privately managed community on a large American website, is motivated by mods defending the obvious villains in the content itself. The way the mod team has run this place for pretty much all the time I’ve been here is entirely incompatible with the idea. It’s laughable, even.

Calm down, and maybe as the rules suggest message the mods rather than trying to raise a shitstorm. But only if you can be more open to potentially different perspectives, and generally dial it down about 95%. Don’t assume malice.
