You and Rocco, and not me, are the ones claiming that there is a bad-faith moderator who is showing favoritism in his or her interventions. Personally, I think overall moderation has improved significantly over the past few weeks with more even-handed treatment and prompt response to abuse reports. I'm sorry that you feel the way you do, but that is my opinion and I am entitled to it. It is still yet a 'Free Republic,' right?

With that said, I don't think that favoritism is your real complaint here. I think that you and your cadre really don't like not being able to attack, insult, demean, and smear us pro-Ukrainian posters with impunity anymore. All the posts being removed, that you claim are being censored, are in fact insulting and generally involve name calling or foul language, and are clear violations of the site rules. The truth is you really don't have much to complain about except a more level playing field on this board with a more active moderator than before. That's all.

Here is what I said:

“Are you still trying to make it look like the Admins are just randomly going around FR, looking for posts that offend Youkazoids? C’mon.”

You must be running that through your special “Slave Youkraynie” filter to come up with “ there is a bad-faith moderator who is showing favoritism…” Now, I have speculated that there may be a Uke-friendly Mod who caters to RevMom’s frequent demands to have posts removed that aren’t to her liking. And I’ll stand by that. It’s a speculation, not an accusation. I don’t fear anybody here and I will continue expressing my opinion despite your eastern Europeanish attempts to silence me.

C’mon, Boryslav. There was even a thread where one of your brothers-in-arms was outright threatening people with a Mod. When a couple of us questioned this, the thread was mysteriously pulled. 🤔

With that said, I don't think that favoritism is your real complaint here. I think that you and your cadre really don't like not being able to attack, insult, demean, and smear us pro-Ukrainian posters with impunity anymore. All the posts being removed, that you claim are being censored, are in fact insulting and generally involve name calling or foul language, blah, blah, blah, blah…

A. I really don’t care what you think.

B. B.S. Some of the pulled comments were far less insulting and demeaning than some of the venom being hissed by you and your compadres. In fact, a couple of pulled comments merely had links to articles that refuted the Ukraine propaganda being spewed. Some of the deleted comments may have been insulting or demeaning, but not all of them. And as I already stated, your brethren put most of the comments to shame when it comes to vituperative discourse.

Get off of your pedestal.
