I’m actually doing some investigation into this, not detective-wise just as I’m curious about these sort of things and I don’t want to open my mouth if I don’t know what I’m talking about. I have noticed that there is an option to purge entirely, like you said, from modlog, user-base, etc. I have noticed exactly what you’re describing with that already, it’s interesting to see it backed up as well. Trying to think of any other reason falls short to me.

rotten pile of shit that makes death threats all the time, lies and has terrible op sec? Why do they threaten to doxx users and track IP addresses and go on witch hunts behind closed doors

Gonna be vague-posting, events like these that I’ve experienced in the past and much worse has lead me to some unsurprising conclusions that none of these actually have any effect on you if you know exactly how fortified you are. I’m comfortable. Not out of laziness or complacency, either. Not justifying anything (seriously, I’m not), just offering some advice for the future if it’s possible to take it. Curiously, I wonder if the account that was deleted entirely was the ones with certain logs attached. Did you save any of these?

On the other side of the coin, I do believe Nakoichi was punished. I had a talk with them a while ago about some hexbear events and they mentioned to me that they were removed from a moderator position. Was this something else? Sorry for the questions, am curious.

If you are in a western country, strongly consider devoting time to leaving rather than reasoning with western leftists
