Depending on severity, you might be warned before adverse action is taken.

Inadvisable


Application of warnings or bans will be subject to moderator discretion. Feel free to appeal. If changes to the guidelines are necessary, they will be adjusted.


If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathizer or a resemblant of a group that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of any other group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you you will be banned on sight.

Provable means able to provide proof to the moderation, and, if necessary, to the community.

Yeah, unless you're particularly well equipped for that type of interaction, you're unlikely to get any kind of satisfying outcome by asking them a question

Those sorts of people have a lot of experience gish galloping, rationalizing their own contradictions, and feeling smug about whatever bullshit response they give.

I don't think their facade is impossible to engage with or break through, but it will always take more than one clever question to get there.

Yea that was part of the decision. I wasn't prepared enough to confront them out of the blue, but I was raised Catholic. I have an idea of how deep their "care" for us really is
