The TOS isn’t about whether or not you’re insulted; it’s not based on your personal tolerance for insults. If we moderated based on that, it would make 0 sense


I'm not sure why this needs to be said. We have rules that everyone is aware of—if they’re broken, the post is removed. It’s not about tiptoeing, so there's no need to be dramatic.

You're treating this like it's some form of terrible censorship. Please stop directing passive-aggressive comments towards the mods.

D'accord,good point,I pride myself on having thick skin in real and virtual life.

WTF is Trumps deal with Canada? He seems to really want to become Canadian lol. Ummm ya we really don’t like you much but ok you can have Alberta.

He's all over the board,the guy is SO visually stimulated he prob thinks Trudeau is wimpy and he can own/intimidate him, I've always had warm feelings for Canada/Canadians and believe the US is blessed to have such a fine neighbor to the north. I just hope Canadians keep a open mind and don't judge America/Americans by the abomination of his election,he was in the right place at the right time w/the right tech. in place to capitalize on Americans w/the wrong mindset,a carnival barker in the digital age. Alberta hah,drill,drill,drill baby,only kidding,sarcasm.

I invested time and thought responding to his post and wasn't insulted by him in my mind,I think I respectfully countered his opinion w/some known facts,my response was also bereft of any insults or obscenities, OH WELL.

Your post wasn't though, you quoted the violation. So if you quote a violation of TOS even if your post is completely fine it still has the violation so we remove it. We do have the option of editing the post but right at Christmas things are a bit busy so when a few people quoted I chose to delete. I hope that helps with understanding. Now back to the political stew.
