I mean this one: https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/68333674

It waa posted 5 hours ago and the bot already says it's concluded and the post locked. I found it interesting and was wondering what happened to it. Aren't governance votes supposed to run for 7 days or something?

I presume unruffled locked it, they is quite convinced veganism is bad lol. They once banned me from a com for posting a PETA protest.

It's more an anti-vegan related post and I didn't like where it was going.

I saw it when it was three hours old and it was already voted and concluded.

Please don't jump to bad-faith conclusions. That's not at all what happened.

I voted for the proposal. The bot bugged out due to a misconfiguration. I've never been anti vegan, I just don't care to constantly debate the topic.

Why are you misgendering Unruffled? And they didn't lock this post.

I managed to find it, it was a yptb post you had deleted 11 months ago and was also for a different account, which I guess it why it didn't show up. I had forgotten all about it, sorry.

I just checked with the admin in question. Apparently this 3 day ban is for posting an image of a skinned dog on a bbq in a vegan community. - db0

I removed it because of the skinned dog image which really upset me at the time. Because, I really love dogs. But on reflection, I can understand it was just a (shocking) way to illustrate the double standards of carnists who routinely post the carcasses of other dead animals.

I also mistakenly removed your post from a non-dbzer0 vegan community, because I hadn't paid attention to the reported instance.

It was a learning moment for me and I regret that I didn't engage with your post differently. All I can say in apology is that if I could do it over, i would have left you in peace.

Sincerely, Unruffled.

Might be worth reflecting on the gap in feeling between a roast dog and a roast pig. I don't know of any meaningful metric to differentiate the two in moral weight.
