I just had to remove about 15 posts, (and someone kept making new accounts) from atlantic and variety, from people claiming we’re homophobic?

I just added a harsher signup and posting timeout as a short fix, which I don’t really like doing, but I have shit to do today and I have no choice.

edit: To clarify the mod policy here, homophobia / transphobia is a bannable offense.

I wouldn’t hesitate to remove explicitly homophobic or racist posts, and I don’t hesitate to remove western propo either (at least for now, until we decide what sectarianism is allowed here)

      That’d probably be a good start, I agree more transparency for community rules is always a good thing.

          Like I said, purely as a mod, I agree just removing posts without prior warning is a bit much, but I wish everyone could have a productive discussion about this. Dividing ourselves because of drama is just what reactionaries want.

            I mean, people who censor and ban you for opposing homophobia ARE reactionaries by any definition.
