I submit for your judgement, my ban from a History Photos, after the mod (a favourite around here) loses his cool and breaks almost all the sub rules and the instance general guidelines.

Arguably he also breached instance rule 1 against ableist conduct and use of slurs as the history of the word moron is quite troubled - something I’ve disagreed with @[email protected] on before.

For clarity I do not support any of the states identified by the US as rogue states. Discussing motives and outcomes does not equal support.

Rules

  1. Be respectful and inclusive.
  2. No harassment, hate speech, or trolling.
  3. Foster a continuous learning environment.
  4. No genocide or atrocity denialism.
  5. Photos MUST be at LEAST 10 years old, and ideally over 20. We appreciate that we are living through events which will become history, but this is ultimately not a comm for news or current affairs, but events which have occurred some time in the past.

    This probably isn’t the community for it but as I was banned for ‘conspiracy theories’ I figure its relevant.

    Right at the top of the post buddy. Going to follow the rules yet?

        It is relevant to directly refuting the reason for the ban as stated in the mod log.

        Got any more bangers there champ?

          My bad, I could have sworn your comment was

          about the general topic in which the moderation took place

          and not

          about the moderation action itself
