This is a goldmine. Can someone with an account that can see censored posts do a recap?

Normal people know that a code of conduct of 'be excellent to each other' is fine and lets moderation be reasonable without rules lawyers cryposting about how some ESL person used the wrong pronoun which is against the CoC. Non-
neurodivergents hate word policing and tend to not get too involved in metashit.
So that always leaves me wondering what skeletons exist in the closet of people who push for these code of conduct changes.![:#marseypedo: :#marseypedo:](https://i.rdrama.net/e/marseypedo.webp)

No, no it's not. If someone is actually being intolerable you can kick them out at any time. An official CoC only encourages the wrong kind of people to come in and stir shit.
The one defensible reason to have a CoC is that you actually have some specific culture that you want to preserve, like let's say you're all religious weirdos and get angry at people who use the Lord's name in vain. Then it makes sense to have a code of conduct so that anyone who joins is warned about you being weird.
In that sense the train CoCs actually work, but people need to interpret them for the danger signal that they are.

Sounds like we need our own CoC.

As the Mr. Beast situation shows, any offense is ok as long as you are on the right team until its too big to cover up.

You ever notice how being "inclusive" somehow manages to exclude lots of people from different cultures and races? Even the fricking neo-Nazis will accept brown people who never would make it in an "inclusive" environment.![:marseythinkorino: :marseythinkorino:](https://i.rdrama.net/e/marseythinkorino.webp)
