It is complete bullshit how the moderators can use "I don't agree with your opinion, therefore it's offensive" as a means to justify that it's offensive.
Also, literally *NOBODY* is or was offended by that statement. There are just posters (including mods) that have this bad habit of setting their sights on getting people moderated for the 'thrill' of it (for lack of a better word), and then use round-a-bout justifications for why it was moderated.
Seriously, posts like that DONT need to be moderated. Nobody needs to be protected from seeing a post like that. This is a fact. Nobody cares. Some people just like to see others get punished for the fun of it. And we need to stop fostering that kind of environment.
