PSA: lemmy.dbzer0.com labels anyone who shows any dislike for AI as a "right-wing neoliberal"
(lemmy.world)
~~They will also delete any comments that complain about AI at all, even though there is no rule against it.~~
/--edit--/
After second look, that's not entirely true, but they definitely have a trigger finger for it and leave plenty of other "off-topic" comments.
Considering the amount of posts deleted, it should have just been locked instead of nuking comments with a negative view of AI
Here's the thread in the screenshot:

Also, here you can see other's seem to think this was an attempt to silence dissent (though, I don't think that this coming from drag is a great point for it):

Just look at this completely insane comment from an instance admin:
The db0 post was a crosspost that itself was a Reddit mirror, and upon further investigation that Reddit post was also a crosspost with the Reddit watermark and the profile silhouette already overlaid on it. The db0 admin was several layers removed from involvement with its creation (and probably several more layers than we can directly deduce), and they had not yet acknowledged that it was AI generated. They had a hand in spreading disingenuousness in the fediverse, knowingly or unknowingly, which was the contradiction with their other mod role that I was pointing out. You can’t be both anti-disinfo and pro-AI as a conduit for messaging in media (unless you at the absolute very least include a disclosure about usage of the latter).
I don't disagree with you, but more importantly I don't think that being a little bit instigative should be met with the treatment you received.
