Using Boost for Lemmy, I got an obvious political ad from the right asking to sign a petition to scrap the gun “ban” in Canada (it’s a registry not a ban).
Now I understand this is an ad but I don’t appreciate having propaganda from the right injected into my browsing on lemmy. Have better ads, or let us report them.
There are plenty of guns outright banned in Canada. Pretty disingenuous to claim its just a registry.
The picture is showing someone with a hunting rifle, which is not banned. Assault weapons and handguns are indeed forbidden, but guns are not blanket banned in Canada. You can still buy and shoot a hunting rifle, which this ad suggests is banned while in fact, it is not. There is a registry for those, but not a ban.
And anyway I wanted to know how to report the ad, not your opinion on the ad itself. It’s the community for Boost and I had a question on Boost, not political discussions.
