Sadly, I didn’t. I live in Iowa. Just learned about “beggars night”.

That’s your decision. In my opinion, it means your not voting. Your line helps nobody.

I am doing something. I’m voting for the issues at my doorstep. I have a gay child, and a non-binary child. I have another that is autistic.

If Trump wins, there’s a non-zero chance that my children will be in danger.

I’m also an advocate for the homeless (don’t correct me. I used to be homeless, and we hate “unhoused”),.

I advocate for foster youth, a sector no politician cares about.

All you do is complain about one issue. There’s scores of issues. Jill Stein isn’t happening. Vote in reality, and for reproductive rights, non-cis rights, rights for the homeless, and for someone that will actually win.

I won’t say a vote for Jill is a vote for Trump.

A vote for Jill is the same as not voting. I tell people that didn’t vote “you don’t vote, you don’t have a right to bitch”

Hey. Moderator here. Your attack on their intelligence is a rule violation. Please either delete this comment, or update it so you’re not insulting somebody. If you don’t in 2 hours, I will be forced to delete your comment. If you continue down this path, you will receive a temporary ban.

Hey, mod here. I’ve removed 2 of your comments, because they were trolling. Please read the rules. The next time this happens, we will be giving you a temporary ban.

I agree. While I’ve seen some crazy shit, it’s not hard for the GOP to plant shit while committing felonies.

What a weird timeline

You da real MVP

“we need money to fund our special military operation kthxbye”

This is why I said I DON’T WANT TO SILENCE PEOPLE.

I try hard to work with people, if possible. We still have rules, so it’s not “anything goes”, nor will it ever be.

That works. As you know, it can be a touchy subject, and wording can make all the difference. I don’t want to remove content, as that feels like picking sides, but I have to keep things civil.

Hey, mod here. I get your views, but the way you expressed them might break a rule (rule 1). The way you wrote it can easily be taken that you think all Muslims are terrorists.

it’s crazy seeing so many who defend the Muslims right to be Islamist terrorists

I’d rather not silence your voice, so could you modify that so it doesn’t read that way. The rest is completely fine.

As a mod, what I can say is this:

If something of yours is removed, or you receive a ban, send us a message. We can work through it. Also, if you see something, report it.

We’re volunteers, and don’t police every comment or post, as we have full-time jobs. We tend to look at the reports, try to gather some context if time allows, then take action or not, based on the community rules.

Thanks for your feedback. I really appreciate it!

Hey, mod here. Your comments can be taken as ignorant (not dumb/stupid), or trollish. If it’s the former, let me educate you.

Churches have been used as polling stations for MANY years, and is a completely common occurrence.

If you knew this and were trolling, please stop.

Looking back, that was a bad day, with tons of reports coming in, and I believe the mod team was just working the reports as fast as they could.

It’s not that simple though; Israel wants to eliminate Hamas (and they have plenty of reason for that – if Mexico attacked the US like Hamas attacked Israel, there would simply put no longer be a Mexico). It would be tone deaf to Israel to say “leave Gaza” without that mission accomplished. They claim they don’t even want the area, they just want Hamas gone. Furthermore, Hamas is fighting with guerilla tactics. They’re intentionally trying to provoke war crimes. Israel doesn’t have to be so dang willing to fall for the trap. However, Hamas is making it exceptionally hard to fight a clean war from what I’ve read. Citizens in the Gaza strip are not just being abused by the IDF but by Hamas. I wouldn’t be surprised if Biden has his own Intel to back that all up. If it were as obvious as people want it to be, I’m pretty sure we would’ve stopped sending aid by now.

This was the comment. Emphasis added.

The reason a mod called it bad faith: Israelis were actively settling the land after the IDF cleared it out.

It was me who liked HFY. for the stories, not the moderation
