    Could you give some examples, or are you just here to be angry? We try to walk the thread between deleting hatespeech and not censoring opinions. Sometimes we get it wrong, so do let us know if you think you know better.

      Good on you for staying civil, that person has a stick so far up their bum they’re spitting leaves. Sorry you have to deal with these kinds of people…

      Just scroll down. There’s dumb anti-bi shit everywhere. Go and look for yourself. I’m not gonna do your job for you.

        I mean… it’s not really my job. But if you are just here to complain, I will indeed not respond anymore.

          Yet you’re here bootlicking lazy and ineffective mods on a server that allows alt-right bullshit as if it is, so I guess it must be

          Go ask the mods if they’ll pay your rent this month for defending hate on their shitty platform. I’m sure your landlord will take their IOU scribbled in crayon

                  Moderation is always going to be a tricky game. People assume that any comments that aren’t deleted are therefore validated by mods, even when they can cover extremes that are very far apart. With a topic like this, the extreme ends are probably going to be people at one end who think anyone who doesn’t confirm to a ‘traditional’ sexuality is some kind of abomination, and at the other end folk who think the people saying the ‘abomination’ shit shouldn’t be allowed to participate. It’s gonna be very hard to moderate that without pissing at least some people off. Like I say, a tricky game - but just because some people are unhappy doesn’t mean you’re doing it wrong.

                  Me, I’d say that unfortunately there are some extreme opinions out in the world and even when I don’t share them I don’t want to pretend they don’t exist. I’d rather have the opportunity to discuss them, dispute them, maybe try to change them. But open hate speech, threats, personal abuse, or advocacy of violence should be a definite no. Just IMO.
