Cancel Culture. The topic of mods banning posters is now the biggest political issue on the right.

No. Not at all

Cancel culture is against individuals for their actions, not an act against the system. The complaint about cancel culture is the moderation of the system. It is actually about the cancelled themselves want back in the system without consequences, or it should not exist.
If I can't have in, no one should.

What other position is there ?

Is that the insurrectionist the FBI dead in the snow ?
It is hard to keep up with the names of all the traitors who catch your fancy as leaders.
Anyway he's dead and Biden is your leader.
The one I expressed

Which is that, a legitimate issue, or a distraction from vulgar behavior ?
The legitimate issue of the removal of vulgar behavior. Which is neither cancel culture nor a distraction. But factually the removal of vulgar behavior, legitimized by the established rules of this board.

I mean the big picture. All sites have rules. The GOP hair isn't on fire over what goes on, on this board.
As you say vulgar is subjective. It is what the mod thinks is vulgar behavior.
The complaint is that it is not up to the mods to decide what is and is not vulgar and that decision is a violation of their free speech rights.
No. I say vulgar is vulgar...and in decent society everyone knows it when they see it..
Where is this complaint...here?

Do you think that something you don't see as vulgar is vulgarity to someone else ?
Could be. You're losing me here with all your pretzeling logic..
If you don't like the moderation here, please leave

This ain't about you, me, or this site.
I am trying to discuss the bigger issue.
And you have to agree that it is a very big issue on the right.
Also, it is not pretzel logic. It is the central question at hand.
Sure there might be a point where everyone agrees that something is vulgar.
But the tumult over cancel culture says that the issue is not about what everyone agrees on, or there would be no cancel culture outcry.
Which is why I asked the question.

But the GOP really, really, really does care about what cancel culture thinks or else it would not be a topic. They are making what they think about cancel culture the foremost pressing issue of our times, regardless.
You're actually agreeing with cancel culture over vulgarity being objective, and everyone knows it when they see it, and the mods are just doing what they should do when they come across it.
There are no "free speech rights" in privately owned, privately operated forums.
That's odd. It seems more to me your attempt to equate it, for some absurd need or other

But the still "feel" that their rights are being violated. And their feelings are paramount. They take precedence over law. Or have you learned nothing after all this time ?

The only thing that is the same is that exchanges are moderated under the site rules. It is just strange that you guys have really thought about something you're carrying out an activity that the GOP would legislate, and could carry real world consequences, if they were in power.
Does that sound absurd ?
Honest to God I really don't follow. I don't think anybody, legislation or not, is really going to give a shit what happens in a site like this.
