(Opinion) To politically decent bronies: please stay

@Barhandar  
They’re only removing nazi and racist content that break rule #0

@belmontzar  
I’m pretty such Raptorshy is fired after leaking those mods chat logs into /mlp/. But I find it funny how all these people with their talked about “muh diversity” literally back stabbed a trans person twice lol.

@Handsome_Jew  
This isn’t a a matter of freedom, the adminstration can do what ever they want with the site, that’s their freedom as owners and moderates of it. Your freedom ends where there’s begins, if you truly gave a shit about freedom you’d realize that and be perfectly ok with an admin doing what they want with their own website.

@Background Pony #2523  
And its also perfectly fine for others to voice their displeasure and disagreement with such a ruling. Especially when rolled out in such a poor fashion.

@Background Pony #D792  
Yeah sure, that’s fine, I don’t want people to not be able to complain or talk about things they don’t like, but you can’t start crying about it being about it freedom, when it’s clearly not.

@Hisexpliciteditor  
The logs extend past when Raptorshy was de-modded, it’s impossible for her to have leaked them.

@Racheter  

Isn’t that their mental gymnastics on diversity and inclusion? Judging people solely on their skin color and sexually preference, not their characteristics. Pretty hypocritical if they don’t live up to that standard.

@Background Pony #C638  
Well Whoever leak it use Raptorshy for cover.

@Background Pony #2523  
Yeah we can. That’s the point of making a complaint public. We voice our concerns with what’s happening and our takes on the matter. There happens to be a sizable number of people who think this new policy is a bad idea and stikes in the face of artistic freedom that they think an art community should have and are saying so. The mods probably won’t listen but posters do have the ability to say they don’t like that.

@Racheter  
True. Raptor wasn’t right because they were trans, raptor was right because they were right on the merrits of the new policy itself and how poorly this whole rollout was handled.

@Hisexpliciteditor
 
I am trans and I think Raptorshy is a tool desperate to please her nazi friends

@Background Pony #EC4E  
You’re transPHOBIC, you mean? :^)

@Racheter  
This has nothing to do about being a trans person.  
She seems to be the only one who got the main problem which is the staff do what they want when they want breaking their own rules, deleting content or comment only because they don’t like them. That’s why she was right.  
And this have being happening for years, just now we now a little more about it.  
People who thinks this is a matter of ban “”””“nazi content”””” and all of that politic stuff are just a waste of time.

The whole argument of this thread falls apart if we are equating art to political things. After all, “politically decent” people probably wouldn’t support pedophilia(foalcon), rape, bestiality, or snuff. Take a long think about the ideals you are presenting here, OP. Give it a good and long think.

This is somewhat off topic, but I wanna tackle the argument that the Nazi fanart is purely “ironic”. If it was really being enjoyed ironically, then when your talking about other people’s need to feel safe in a community outweigh your ironic enjoyment, the logical, normal response is generally “aw man, yeah that kind of sucks but makes sense, let’s see if we can find some where more appropriate to post this stuff” and not a weirdly huge outlash against ‘SJW censorship’ or whatever.  
I’d also like to admit I know and have no opinion on what’s going on with the whole situation around Raptorshy and the admins, this is purely about the content that’s being banned.
 
 
@Hisexpliciteditor  
You don’t know anything about the people you dislike so much. The core of SJW ideology, I guess, isn’t that minorities are all always right, that’s a straw man.
 
 
@aperture_tech  
Yeah, those things should also probably be banned, or atleast much harder to access. It’s weird and creepy. I really don’t understand your point, the ideals OP is presenting is that Nazi fanart of a children’s show is at best questionable and uncomfortable. How is that unreasonable?

@Barhandar
 
I’m not the one using a trans person as a meat shield for an ironic gotcha. Please just openly call me a trap instead of pretending that you give any kind of a shit about trans people.

@Background Pony #2523  
That’s precisely why it is entirely unreasonable. Banning everything that makes us uncomfortable is weak. Especially on this site, where the filter system works very well. I’m not even against the idea of adding tags like these to the default filter or automatically blacklisted unless you whitelist them. Banning stuff outright is the issue. Considering OP has a few porn pics in favorites, and one in uploads, I suppose it would make them a zoophile? Hiding the images is fine with me, but the response to these things should be filter it.

@Background Pony #EC4E  
Nah, I actually do. I wouldn’t be talking about how raptorshy got screwed over if I didn’t. Stop trying to put words in my mouth and making accusations based on differences in opinion.

@Background Pony #EC4E  

 
Yes. Because the issue at hand is the over-censorship and not about Raptorshy being trans. Her being trans does not impact the issue. That she spoke up in disagreement of the changes, and was cut down for it, is the issue.  
Right now you are weaponising Raptorshy’s trans-status to redirect and make the claim that this is where the issue is, when it’s not.
