This would strike a balance (I won’t say “the right balance”) between freedom of speech and calling a spade a spade. Thoughts?

Why on earth do you want me to do that?

But really tho, he should be learned in history and politics for that. For some reason, I don't even want the Nazi Party to be misrepresented.

If there is going to be something of the kind, I *think* that I'll be a part of it.

Unlike you, I believe in unity and democracy. Separating and creating your own stream out of refusal to accept the principles of others is bigotry. And how am I "hijacking" a stream here?

Tl;dr, you’re not hijacking this stream, because we’re not letting you.

Because you are fascist and bigoted. You hate democratic outcomes to elections you dislike and oppress people you disagree with.

For the 1000th time

“Disagreement” on this stream is permitted, as demonstrated by the fact that we the mods have left standing any number of critical comments you’ve made here

We draw the line at homophobia and other bigotry, all of which is prohibited in theory by ImgFlip TOS anyway (See: “Conduct”) but we’re actually giving practical effect to those words.

The imgflip Conduct section of the ToU does not prohibit people from having a phobia of homosexuality.

“Do not discriminate against any sect”

I think a fair reading of that phrase, as well as the general gist of the paragraph as a whole, certainly allows, at a minimum, for Stream Mods to ban homophobia from their own streams if they so choose

I agree that stream MODs should be allowed to censor as much as they please on their streams, but you claimed that the imgflip ToU implies that users who have a phobia of homosexuality (I have yet to encounter any) should be censored by the site MODs in every stream.

So that makes homophobia good?

I encourage people with phobias to seek help.

You said you are ok with people saying the n word if they censor it.

I am not okay with people saying the n word, but the comment itself should not be deleted if the word is censored with stars like swear words are now (eg. f**k, s**t etc.)

But how is that proof of me supporting racism?

That’s like if a cop said he is not ok with someone giving death threats but they won’t stop arrest them because of freedom of speech.

But I believe in censoring death threats, illegal content and excessive spam.

That’s not the point. What I’m trying to say is that letting racism happen is just another way of racism.
