@Eupeptic@meemu.org @hrefna a popular UK car detailing forum was infested with fash - mods only took action after the forum was sold to Verticalscape (probably because their corporate HQ put pressure on them) and when one of them started openly stanning Hitler in a WW II discussion. What was more concerning is the fash weren't simple trolls but also regular contributors to the forum, so were tolerated for months in the name of "free speech and debate". >>

@Eupeptic@meemu.org @hrefna whilst the fash did get yeeted, a lot of others simply stopped contributing to the forum in protest that "free speech was censored" and that forum has not recovered since (they are constantly moaning that they don't get the same quality of new members and everyones gone to corporate social media)
