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.

What’s interesting about this lawsuit, though, is that Paxton is effectively suing a Christian ministry for helping unhoused people—and the ministry plans to respond to the threat by saying they have a religious right to assist others:

This is Texas. The government will do nothing to help homeless people. I'd rather see a church do something about it than no one. You may feel differently, but I would prefer it if people didn't needlessly suffer when someone is willing to help them even if that someone does not agree with my worldview.

It's not like I have to go to their church.

This is kinda where I'm at. I don't like unhoused people having to rely on religious charities, BUT I won't turn help away just because it's not from the "right people."
