    its just a dangerous precedent in my opinion. Are you okay with similarly vaguely worded arguments being used to have your favorite community banned?

    Can we do a thought experiment?

    You favorite community is up for ban. What evidence would result in your agreeing to ban it?

    In my opinion whatever standard you would have for that question should apply to every community.

      I mean that community does have a history so it’s not really nothing. Just cause they haven’t done it on this platform doesn’t mean it shouldn’t be considered. If the kkk created an instance but never broke any rules I’d think they’re history as an organization should be grounds for a banning. The donald is not the kkk but I still their past behavior should be considered.

        Hard disagree. If people are following the rules, they should be allowed to exist.
