Is there drama or a story I’m missing? As I understand it, from lemmy.world I can see their posts but they cannot see mine. Why did beehaw block lemmy.world?

Wrong.
Beehaw has a specific goal, and it’s transparently taking actions to further that goal. It’s neither acting “on a whim” or enforcing hidden rules, like Reddit authoritative mods would.
Personally I don’t like this sort of moderation, I feel better in environments where mods/admins let users sort themselves out, but to compare it with the situation in Reddit is, if I may be honest, a fucking stupid false equivalence. And even if we two don’t need safe spaces, it’s good to have a few of them here and there, and Beehaw fits that role fine.
Agree with the sentiment, I don’t need it nor is it my thing, I prefer to be the one that has to do the blocking rather than mods, but I can see why it’s there.
I hate when people try to do safe spaces and some outsider looks at it and starts staying it’s authoritarian, an echo chamber, propaganda, power hungry admins, etc. Like, dude if there is a group of people that want to be protected from certain rethoric, it’s pathetic to act with indignation just because the don’t want everyone to interact. Not every community is about fitting everyone and being neutral, as long as they are transparent with it let them have their place in peace.
It feels kind of creepy. But if they like it, I guess that’s their business.
