my point about context still stands. I’m sure I can think of a way to make a swastika relevant to a thread without it being a ‘troll’.

The problem with that is then that leads to all the accusation of mod bias. “Aldo let the swastika go through but Catt banned it — MOD BIAS!” The rules are in place specifically TO enforce the letter, not the spirit.

Then when people break the spirit, that’s where the “mods can ban whoever for whatever” line.

This whole discussion reinforces how happy I am that I’m not a mod any more. I’m sure NoP feels the same way.
