      Because that’s a lie. The server is based in the Netherlands. It is illegal in the Netherlands to call for violence. What gets deleted are calls for violence.

      A very quick glance at the modlog will show that comments merely saying people should rise up against Trump are not in there.

          Yes, very droll. Now as I asked someone else complaining about this, are you going to pay to have the server you are being allowed to use for free to be moved to a country where it is legal to call for violence?

              It’s a statement about having to comply to the law of the nation the server is in.

              And it’s in a part of the world with lots of successful nonviolent uprisings, so I’m not even sure that it’s all that odd.
