As much as I disagree with
@MarkusS on my things, and we're on the complete opposite end of the political spectrum, I respect his rights to his views and to be controversial without being offensive.
I saw what he wrote, considered it at the time, but didn't make any changes because I felt it wasn't my job to censor him for believing something I don't. Moderators don't do that, we deal with offensive or off-topic/flaming content, which I don't consider this to be.
I recognize the far-right is divisive and I don't agree with much, if anything that they stand for, but Markus isn't breaking any rules that I wouldn't by saying "
Hail Arbeiderpartiet!!"
I understand, I really do and if
@waz feels differently then I'll let him take action, but I believe in letting Markus express his political identity as he chooses, so long as he isn't being offensive about it or using it to incite violence or hatred, which in this case he isn't. I also make and recognize a distinction between ISIS and parties like Forza Italia, just like I make a distinction and recognize the difference between the Red Brigade and Arbeiderpartiet - Norway's Labour Party.
Waz, I'll leave the decision to you. It's almost midnight and I'm going to bed
