In my opinion,
it's a bit of a fix, Moderation standards w.r.t to anything India related has to be a bit different;
As of now things like:
Religion: it's pretty much a free for all to insult anything Indianfaith related but if anything is directed towards any of the Middle-eastern ones, you will see red-lettered posts by Moderators reminding members to be respectful. No such quarter would be given to Indian relevant threads.
Personal and racial slurs towards Indian's seem to indemnity from the administration: one can freely use terms such as Indiots, pajeets, street shitter, piss drinker, dotheads, cow cola, gangus, randians, with complete immunity to which even rank holders here would gladly rate positive or like and smirk with joy.
Indian Media: Now coming to news, props to
@AgNoStiC MuSliM he has been mostly balanced; but even he thinks that Indian Media when it comes to balakot strikes et all follow Indian government's brief and thus has to be deleted from relevant threads. When I complained about it, I was systematically banned.
Infractions: The moderating standards on off-topic posts for other nationalities vs Indian will be quite different, take this post for example most likely one of the new overzealous moderators will take it upon him/herself to shut me up by handing out an infraction classifying this as an off-topic post with no recourse to challenge it.
And make no mistake, this direction is by design.
@SQ8
as these days I have post disclaimers, for the admin and mods here as miscomprhension is quite abundant: before someone here deems my post as offensive for the terms I have used, they should search for those exact terms on the search bar and see the inaction of hundreds of such threads and hang their heads in shame.
