pretty strange

'cause they're a bunch of snowflakes who don't like being confronted with their fragility.

yup

Paranoid delusion much?

don’t necessarily agree with the wording that the commenter chose, but it do agree with the political bias the streams moderators seem to have

of course this stream’s mods also have an obvious political bias as well, but it’s needed to balance out the almost entirely conservative original politics stream. an ideal politics stream would be where there is an almost equal amount of liberals and conservatives where they each could respectfully express their views.

In an ideal world there wouldn't be any bias, disagreements, debates, insults, or even memes, etc.

But this is life, not a poem about pretty flowers not getting eaten by ravenous sheep not worried about getting eaten by Little Red Riding Hood's instant new grandma.

Sorry, more conservatives come here, probably because we get treated like shit on many lib infused and ran sites elsewhere. "politics" works fine. Comments don't get deleted, both sides can get memes featured.

If someone thinks and opinion, ideal, stance, whatever, ain't worth fighting for, then maybe they ain't worth fighting for.

We've both witnessed those at the helm of this stream wield their plastic Ginsu Knives most gleefully when displeased by the slightest irritation, including replies to attacks that used this stream as cover.

Yes, altho I have to say it's gotten better. I remember when all my comments would get deleted.

I rarely venture here, unless I've followed comments here without knowing the stream.

Although me getting censored was last year on account of that short yellow bus reject DJFox using this as a means of nipping at my ankles ack while modding.

you’re right, and it was probably wrong to bring mods into this in the first place, and this meme i posted here was incorrect. the mods here are obviously more biased here, but at least your comments are now allowed. the real problem i have with these two streams lies in the original meme, the members. if a liberal posts in the politics stream, they get slathered with insults, and vice versa with this stream. think i might just have a problem with the imgflip politics community as a whole, lol

Well, I think to be fair, liberals are treated mostly well in 'politics', but leftists and TDS trolls do get a rough time.

Yeah, we're kinda all assholes :)

yeah, you’re probably right on that.

I post simple things sometimes in the politics stream about things like climate change being real, and get huge hate.

Well, many people aren't fond of liars. Even while being pleasant!

But sure, that's a topic that is divisive. Don't take it personally.

I just had a meme take 12 hours to be approved 2 days ago. Some have to be approved by mods and they aren't always around. Meanwhile I've never had a meme featured in this stream.

Looks like your meme DID get featured after all.

The Bully Pulpit is occupied by a boorish bullshit artist backed by Russian trolls.

:)

It got disapproved or it’s just taking very long to approve?

hasn’t necessarily been disapproved, but there has been new images in the stream since i tried to submit it

Yeah I don't understand it myself. Sometimes my submissions to "politics" are approved almost instantly, other times it takes a whole day.

never mind it literally just got approved now

Good to hear

In their minds, it seems like actual reasoning. Your meme's attacking the stream rather than their views. They don't feel as comfortable with memes that attack the stream although they've featured a few of mine.

Put facts in your meme that they can try to refute with bad logic or poor recall of some article title they half remember. That'll be good grist for their sad devotions.

You'll have more fun with them if you focus on facts rather than playing for moral high card. They don't know the rank of the various cards.

Upvoted for "good grist for their sad devotions."

Do you have a link to the image? I may be able to figure out what’s going on with it.

it was approved very recently, it just took long this is no longer accurate

it doesn't make them look good so they need to silence it

I have some submissions from over two years ago that are still waiting to be featured. One has over two thousand views. Go figure.

this was before it was approved

You just described the PoliticsToo stream

“Politics” is supposed to be nonpartisan.

I don’t go rushing into the imgflip.com/m/FirearmFriendly stream to troll them with my pro-gun control views. Nor do I troll any other explicitly conservative stream, of which there are several here on ImgFlip.

However, conservatives troll this stream rather frequently, which creates the necessity of aggressive modding. Then they inevitably whine about censorship.

That’s not how this works.

But as long as you stay respectful here, you shouldn’t have a problem.

The only way to make a non-partisan stream is if both viewpoints are shown in the shown in the same stream. Other wise you have created 2 streams. 1 mostly Conservative with a little Liberal. The other only has Liberal views.
