    Could you clarify who was posting? Shitpost wasn’t tolerating Nazis?

    I guess I can see how that would go poorly for a meme community. That’s where they like to congregate.

      You got it rights. Shitpost was supposed to be the “anything goes” meme community, and a bunch of yahoots took that as “Oh we can post lgbtq hate memes here”. The shitpost community members didn’t have any of it though. Most all the nazi shit got reported and the troll alts banned, but its a constant game of whackamole.

      Really the problem was shitpost had a very small mod team all clustered on the same time zone. The nasty stuff would stay up too long.

        “Anything goes” is such a terrible idea in the modern internet, you’re always going to get checked for trying it lol.

          Oh for sure. They did still have rules against nsfw and hate speech ofc, as well as the instancewide rules that had to be followed, but mods can only do so much.

          “Anything Goes” was supposed to be memes of any quality/type/reference lol
