As mentioned on the About page, the Mormon leadership and the Mormon church in general is largely about control, and this behavior is often mirrored by some of the members and their endeavors.
For instance, on Reddit there are two groups dedicated specifically to people that are still active in church and they exemplify the Mormon need to control the narrative and the members of the group.
Among the groups based around those that either have questions about the church or have already left, it’s a well-known meme that saying anything in one of the active groups that’s even one slight iota off from the most strict and loyal line will not only get your post removed, it’ll get you banned from the group. What you say doesn’t even have to be offensive or controversial. It can be as simple as posting a question or comment about how the church is going to respond to a particular situation or handle evolving social or scientific issues, and you’re banned.
As a matter of fact, even just posting in certain other groups will automatically get you banned from the active groups, even if you’ve never posted in the active groups before.
This is because the moderators of the active groups are following the church’s lead and they don’t dare allow even the slightest bit of independent thought or question. The only way the church can maintain what members it has left is by heavily controlling the narrative and the members themselves.
