A few days ago I made a post to gauge this community’s opinion on whether it should allow nice comics by bigoted artists. I think we have a consensus.

The majority of comments were very in support of banning comics by artists like Stonetoss and Jago. I heard from queer people who said they’d feel safer if the rules were changed. A lot of people were concerned about this community becoming a “Nazi bar”, the comment expressing that feeling got a LOT of upvotes.

The people against the change had two main arguments: anti-censorship, and personal responsibility. A few people equated active moderation practices with book burning. Nearly all of these “against” comments were downvoted or ratiod, and tended to have a lot of arguments underneath them, while the “pro” comments went uncontested.

On the internet, 10% of people will disagree with just about anything. With that in mind, I think we’ve reached a consensus. The community wants a rule change so that users can’t post inoffensive comics by bigoted artists.

That means no more Jago comics. I see a lot of people in the comments under the Jago posts, getting angry and saying they want this rule change. People aren’t happy with the user who’s posting all the Jago comics.

Mods, this is what we want. Please change the rules and get Jago’s comics outta here.

      It’s an appeal to authority for draconian measures and to silence a voice

      Maybe you are actually this unhinged

          If what you want to do is this braindead, slippery slope, garbage analysis, then fine: You’re a hate-speech and childporn advocate.

            This comment and other like yours are spreading hate, not these comics. It is yourself and people like you who should be banned from this community. 🙄

                you’re advocating that the mods should allow hate-speech, nazi-rhetoric, and child porn.

                I am what now? Seek help. 🙄

                  Wait, so you’re changing your stance? You do think censorship is good? Now you think the mods should censor some things?

                  I thought that was some kind of Tankie, Draconian hellscape? What happened?
