thats what i thought :)
Anyone who wants to look up those photos can do so... elsewhere. This type of content goes directly against our policies regarding nudity, not to mention that some of it is of highly questionable legality. Needless to say, it's unsavoury and inappropriate.

I agree that one person who trolled was censored and the troll that he responded to was not.

Being a mod is so difficult. He should probably just ban everyone.

That was not expected.

Anyway, as I mentioned before @shamzie, details like the holocaust are *insignificant* when it comes to labelling people Nazis for imagined virtue points.

It's really not that difficult, you just ignore your own biases. "Wow a guy making a joke about what a racist muppet Jussie was, I'll remove that"

"You're all nazis...... I see no problem with this"

I mean, the guy in the picture is obviously a Nazi. I have no trouble disowning Nazis, I'm Polish, I lived one hour away from a death camp, so I'm pretty sure I know what these guys are all about. I think it's intellectually dishonest and unfair to say that 100k people who came to protest at the Capitol Hill were all Nazis, in fact I think that's a ridiculous assessment, but that particular guy clearly is one. In the same vein it's unfair to say that every Democrat is a communist. Generalisations like that aren't productive.

It's because he knows who is more prone to make charged accusations against him, and would rather buffer himself from that. Human nature. Too bad it lets the shitty people have "freer speech".

He's a white supremacist who is being edgy with Nazi symbolism. Nazis gassed people.

You will never get out of the trap if you keep voting for the lesser evil. Stop voting or storm the capitol yourself.
People on both sides will find out they have been played once the USD plummets like a rock.
Would have liked, if not for the last statement. ;) So who exactly is interested in the USD plummeting like a rock?

Chinese interests and affiliates? (Not even them because they need export markets.) So the going theory is still 'China infiltrated Biden, so Biden will ruin the US economy to the point where the USD plummets like a rock'?

And what bad 80s movie did you watch? As in seriously - not even the slightest idea of how inflating M1 works for the US, in an environment where at least half of the world is doing it?

Okay lets take you at your word that this guy is a "real nazi" despite the fact they pretty much died out 80 years ago, and im fairly confident this guy hasn't gassed any jews lately but still, lets say he 100% is one. Why was my post removed, is Jussie Smollet not a race baiting racist himself who perpetrated a hoax, where you drawing the line?

I also thought my point about Dave Chappelle being kneed to the throat by the Hollywood Elite was relevent considered all the racism surrounding the crux of the election.

If you guys knew Foxi you'd know he's not simply removing posts that he disagrees with or giving his preferred side more credence.

It just so happens that most of the outlandish and rule breaking posts (and unnecessary personal insults) are coming from a few of you on a particular side of the aisle. But I'm seeing posts removed from both sides due to bickering and rule breaking.

He's the one who chose to dress like one, so he's identified as one. Your post was removed because it has nothing to do with the election season. You knew you were posting bait when you did it, don't act the fool. That'll be all, the decision is final and not up to further discussion.

Nah, that's disingenuous. There are at least 3x more posts from people on the other side of the aisle claiming that his moderation tactics are bad. I'm not even going that far. I appreciate him. I'm just spitting rhetoric for everyone to consider. I love Foxi. Hope he isn't disheartened by any of this.

*Snip!*

If I identify myself as "God", will you respect that as well?

He already said no. You could be right, but it doesn't matter @shamzie. Moderators are working on their own time, and they don't owe anyone favors, unless law forces them to.

All three were deadly and only I am ready to say so. Due to your bias you cannot abandon your double standard.

I fail to see the double standard, I didn't kill anyone, I am not a news reporter & I condemn anyone who murders anyone.

In terms of people killed per minute, the capitol attack seems deadlier.

I dont expect any favours, I expect to be treated equally. That's my own silly fault though.
