    You deserved it! Way too much crying going on in comment sections lately.

    Why do so many of you go to communities that you disagree with, start shit, get banned, then come here to continue the shit stirring in the comments?!

    Guys if you don’t like a fucking community, just block it or avoid it. WTF?! lmao

      Yeah, its pernicious. We have communities for focused discussions (at least in theory)… but some people treat ALL as a personal attack on their core beliefs and instead of blocking the community they don’t like… they start a crusade.

    This comm is not the place to continue discussions from elsewhere or a drama haven.

    Having had to lock posts because the conversation was going off the rails and getting very heated and political… that is the right call.

    If the purpose of the community isn’t being served by the discussion, it should be shutdown, let people have their internet fights somewhere else.

      Exactly. That scenario is exactly why locking is possible. You lock the thread so people can’t keep derailing, and are forced to actually take it to the appropriate places instead.

      OP is just butthurt because they couldn’t argue politics in an apolitical community anymore.

    Don’t bring the argument into the comments. That was the right call.

        If you can’t even be arsed to explain your issue or at the very least provide a link to the context, I’m not going to go hunting for it.

        YDI by default. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

            I think you should re-read my comment. “You” is both a specific and general pronoun.

            It’s generally good to try and be charitable when interpreting what others have written.
