Nice, we haven't actually solved anything if you just close the thread.😉
So, you're saying this:
And regarding the thread following those deleted posts—this is what the Democratic Party is saying:
Something doesn't add up here—one of you two is lying.
If it’s standard practice—and if the Library of Congress actually allows this level of personal vitriol—then we need some clarity. We've already seen certain active users get flagged just for mentioning colors like "red," so let's be clear: terms like "petty moron" or "stupid idiot" aren't considered insults here? Fine. If that's the rule, I’ll start incorporating them into my own posts. I only shared those specific slurs to see if they’d be deleted without any actual consequences.
That phrase—"I'm not alone, so watch out for the dark"—is a direct threat. It’s the kind of thing that's meant to intimidate, and under the US Penal Code, it’s absolutely punishable.
Since you failed to provide adequate protection, I am requesting that you send the registration details for the individual making public threats against me via private message—so that I may proceed accordingly.
Keep copies of deleted posts—save them as evidence.
Greetings.

The forum user is a total lightweight.Just because the mods haven't gone public with it doesn't mean it didn't happen. Besides—they don't exactly owe anyone an explanation regarding how they handle sanctions against others.

You won't be getting a ban, but you will receive a warning based on the Reddit Terms of Service:
So, regarding whether that University of Iowa association is homophobic or not—we can debate that over in the dedicated thread on that organization located under the "political scene" section.
Claiming that the University of Iowa is a homophobic organization—despite them never once including such rhetoric in their official mission statement—is, at best, off-topic. At worst, it’s blatant trolling. It seems some people are hell-bent on forcing this narrative regardless of how many others protest the claim, all while derailing the actual discussion and creating unnecessary friction.
