    The admins are blatantly censoring the drawing, putting checkerboard squares or circles of random color over that part. Here are some screenshots I took only seconds apart.

      No, I’m sure that’s a “silent majority” of users who support everything that Reddit The Company does banding together to stamp out the minority of noisy rabble-rousers. /s

      That’s how it has always been for all places. Admins have the power to erase anything that goes against Reddit’s ToS. Depicting spez under the guillotine is against their ToS, but writing “fuck spez” isn’t, which is why one gets deleted and the other remains.

      It makes sense IMO. It’s just like admins having the power to erase swastikas, homophobic or transphobic content, blatant product advertisements and so on. Nothing wrong with it, IMO.

      If this was being done over lemmy with lemmy.word admin name in it, would it be censored?

      I actually saw that happen in real time, did we confirm it was an admin action?

      All the pixels came in at the same time

        If you spend time watching /r/place you see that pictures mostly form in a natural, progressive way. This is the only place you see hundreds of pixels being changed uniformly all at once. Even bots would be making more gradual changes than this. It’s clearly someone who has a brush tool for censoring.

          Literally anyone with 20 bots.

          There is tremendous value in pursuing evidence for the things we believe, rather than spending life totally convinced that our first assumption is always the truth
