So,it's come to this. I'm not going to play innocent and I'm not asking for any admin to undo my forum ban. I "did" argue with moderators but in my defense they were not exactly "fair and impartial" in the way they handled things or the way they interacted with me either. Honestly as a mod I would simply try to refrain from posting my own political points of view or ideals. I'd let "members" debate that among themselves and only "step in" if someone got really aggro. (To the point they were threatening to hack the site,dox personal information,etc.) Members should be allowed to express their opinions but I always thought a moderator should be more of a referee, watching for "illegal moves" from the side lines but otherwise staying neutral and impartial.


Sadly the newgrounds politics section is far from that. There's an obvious bias and in the end my only points were "I really don't think Blaire White is a Dark souls level threat to the trans community" and "People who laugh at others getting milk-shaked have no right to complain if they get milk-shaked themselves". So on one hand I'm probably seen as an alt-righter because obviously Blaire's MAGA hat makes her alt right! On the other hand I was defending a trans person's right to disagree with other trans people. Really newgrounds, is THAT so unreasonable? Is anyone beholden to "kiss the ring" of certain movements or political parties just because they are apart of certain demographics? Heck,isn't that even bigoted and condescending? Haven't we worked hard to create an America where racial minorities,gays,and other underrepresented fringe-folks can speak their minds and vote for whomever they damn well please? Seeing these groups as single-minded hive collectives with no diversity of thought within them is a grave injustice and just plain ignorant. Two black people or two trans people can hold different opinions from each other. That shouldn't be a fact that "offends" anyone.


Regardless,I'm an illustrator first so maybe being banned is the best thing that ever happened to me. My life could certainly benefit from "less" political bullshit and less tribal witch hunts! I miss the 90's!
