Hey, is it alright if I post a slightly different take on the abortion thread?

I should probably mention right off the bat that I don't really identify as strictly pro-life or pro-choice, but I just feel like the whole crux of this debate is that if we’re pushing for true gender equality while simultaneously being against what I'd call a "financial abortion," then it might not be logically consistent to claim we're pro-choice, even if that's what we want to believe.

At the end of the day, it's all about reproductive rights, I guess. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reprod...n's_rights

After you tried to repost it, it got nuked again, and you ended up with a one-day ban.

The moderators across this whole site have both the right and the responsibility to pull threads that don't fit our community guidelines, and to stop people from repeatedly posting that kind of stuff.

If you want to have a productive conversation here at FC Barcelona, you're more than welcome. But if you're planning on sticking to the style you showed yesterday, it’s just not going to work.

Over & out.

I don't think anything is really "over and out."

I really don't think the thread was misogynistic trolling, even if that's how you're framing it; I see it as an actual debate about a massive issue being discussed everywhere in the news lately—women's reproductive rights.

As far as I know, there isn't just one single way to look at things in this country, and the debate between pro-choice and pro-life views is still very much alive, so what feels like misogynistic trolling to you definitely isn't viewed that way by everyone else. I actually posted the exact same thing (just in English) over on Reddit, and not only did they leave it up, but it actually sparked over a hundred different replies.

I guess I'm wondering if there's any sort of recourse in cases like this, or if there's someone specific I can talk to about how this moderation is being handled?

So, I went through all the trouble of making sure my thread followed every single rule on the forum, only to have it wiped out almost immediately. Then, after waiting just a few minutes to try posting it again, the whole thing got locked and I ended up getting slapped with a one-day Ban without even being told why.

Since my post didn't break any rules regarding thread creation or anything like that, I’m honestly just wondering who gave certain moderators—I'm not even sure which ones, really—the authority to just delete posts at will and ban people for trying to start constructive discussions. I guess I’m just reaching out here to formally complain about this Ban, ask for a second look at what happened, and maybe suggest that we take a closer look at how moderation is actually being handled over at FC Barcelona.

Thanks so much.
