First of all, thank you for sending me the first reports I've ever received as a mod. Very exciting!

But listen.

I'm not a super serious guy. I let a lot slide. If you're posting in one of my communities, know that you have A LOT of leeway for fun and personal expression.

But one thing I won't tolerate is low effort trolling. I demand effort. If you're spinning a yarn or trying to misrepresent yourself, or the situation, I demand to be entertained by it.

That is all. Thank you for attending my TED Talk.

You can't make this up

I want to make this VERY clear. I am extremely progressive, way far left. Kamala Harris is the only sane choice, I'm voting for her. BUT we still have to try and get her to change bad policies like her promise to continue funding genocide. Apparently, that way of thinking will get you kicked out of certain echo chambers ran by corrupt mods like WrenFeathers and JonsJava. The first comment was in response to someone praising Biden like he doesn't also have Palestinian blood on his hands. And I apparently always have to reiterate that Dildo Tramp is 1000x worse and might actually kill us all by accident or on purpose.

You've got people like this moderator of World News and quite a few other communities issuing bans and removals for things like "Genocide Denial" on any comments that are somewhat moderate or centrist around the longstanding Israel/Palestine conflict. Absolutely sickening to me. There has been NO proven genocide. There are no facts to back that up. This is complete bias and suppression of freedom of speech.

This platform will never succeed if moderators with huge bias are with unchecked power. It's reputation is already in the gutter as an extreme radical leftist platform. And unfortunately, I see that is very true.
