Moderation philosophy posts started out as an exercise by myself to put down some of my thoughts on running communities that I'd learned over the years. As they continued I started to more heavily involve the other admins in the writing and brainstorming. This most recent post involved a lot of moderator voices as well, which is super exciting! This is a community, and we want the voices at all levels to represent the community and how it's run.

This is probably the first of several posts on moderation philosophy, how we make decisions, and an exercise to bring additional transparency to how we operate.

Then the original comment I replied to should have been removed. Fuck that original commenter, fuck the mod, and by extension fuck your for blaming the working class's conditions on anyone not willing to vote for Democrats. That creates a toxic and unwelcoming community, and you should be ashamed of yourself.

Oops. Guess I didn't knuckle under to your demand for civility; also liberal as hell.

Ok...? Not sure if this comment was directed at myself, gil or both of us as they are duplicates. I'll accept my liberal label, but if you think your present behaviour doesn't create toxic and unwelcoming communities, you do you and shine bright, firebrand. Just don't be surprised when people don't appreciate your company.
