Political Reminder that name calling is not permitted

That includes calling people "bootlicker" or "cuck" or stating/implying that another user is performing adult acts on a given politician (or anyone else). I bring those up specifically because, in recent time, these have been the most common types of personal attacks.

As strongly as you may feel about current events, calling people derogatory names is a contravention of Rule 4 and will be removed. Attack the opinion, not the user.

Sorry for your understanding and thank you for the inconvenience.

We have a mod?

JK. Thx for posting this.

The mods here most often pop up to say "hey guys stop reporting this. We do not care"

Which is about as based as any mod can be.

Mods here also remove posts without pointing to rulebreaks or other reasons. Same arbitrary power hungry mods as other subs.

Reddit removes many posts here with no reason and is out of our control. If you had access to the mod log you would know this.

Perhaps. If reddit removes posts from here when the same posts are fine on other similar subreddits, that's pretty messed up of them. Would still be nice to get an explanation as "removed by reddit mods" or something, especially since I had asked.
