The world we live in isn't just dystopic, it isn't just stupid, trying to describe all the ways it sucks just makes for a really boring story.

Hello all,

This community will be removed from the instance in the near future because it is unmoderated, does not align with the instance's focus, and frequently introduces political content into the local feed, which is contrary to the instance's goal of minimizing political content.

Alternative versions of aboringdystopia are available on other instances:

!aboringdystopia@lemmy.world

!aboringdystopia@lemmy.ml

!aboringdystopia@lemm.ee

I would prefer locking the community to avoid losing visibility of the posts, but unfortunately locking a community is not an available feature.

EDIT: As Trying2KnowMyself pointed out below, it is possible to restrict the community to moderator posts. So, I have done that instead to preserve older content.

Thanks!

The way submitters didn’t played by the rules

It is not that the submitters did not play by the rules. The 'rules' of the instance set the scope of the kind of communities that belong here, but I would not expect users from other instances to be aware of these rules. So, it was a mistake on my end not on any poster's. It would have been better to react sooner, but better now than later.

There are ways this community could have been both science

From the name my impression was that the community was about more aligned with futuristic sci-fi, which would be a bit on the edge of the scope but acceptable.
