Wasn’t one of the chief complaints that the moderator in question was deleting posts/comments and subsequently banning users for differing from their political views or what they interpreted didn’t apply to this subreddit?

Their actions seem akin to going to an open house at the state house, criticizing a state rep, and then getting banned from the state house. Discussion about the ins and outs and moderators of this subreddit is inherently part of r/Massachusetts discussion, and should be allowed.

There were so many posts recently that sort of meant to call attention to the most obscure problems in our state. I hope our moderator team can stay on top of this. I block each account they does this.

It reminds me of the patri0t fr0nt marching in Boston. Just people targeting us because of our high human development index.

It's pretty funny how someone called this mod out for being sketchy, and it turned out to be completely accurate.

If someone posts like an unhinged person on any social media, they probably are unhinged. Pretty simple lol

Especially since he's only suspended, and not even necessarily removed as a mod. There's a hierarchy between the mods' authority over the sub, so with the head mod being inactive, he will have direct power over them.

Everything that happened yesterday really struck me as odd and changed my entire perspective.

The first post I saw was about how they worked for Meta. I didn’t, and still don’t, care what their day job is. However, everything else that went down became wild really quick.

What happens to people who were banned? Do they get unbanned? What happens with that now?

Oh my god. If he screened them to suit his tastes, this sub is definitely doomed. And I agree absolutely, mods should be from Mass as a basic requirement!

At this point I want to see open and honest statements of intent from all new mods.
