I could understand 261's deletion, since initially we were told about how the board gave mods the most work to do, how there was a lot of hate speech going on there, I get it. But realpolitick? Feels like a step too far for me personally, since community boards were designed with user-accessible tools to moderate and manage a board, and that board was originally created to foster healthier political discourse compared to 261, and I didn't see ToS breaking going on for the little time I saw it before it was gone.

We're also getting into murky territory here regarding the congregation of certain users because it feels like realpolitick's deletion wasn't for hate speech or giving the mods trouble, it feels like it was deleted because a congregation of politically-affiliated users got together and posted 5 political topics with like 30 political posts. Does that mean if this group moves from board to board they basically have the power to delete the boards indirectly? Is that the kind of power you want to give a small subset of users? Should the users be banned then?

Where's the line? I thought it was hate speech, but it doesn't seem to be. I don't know where it is. Maybe when Fandom figures out a more concrete way to convey to this change that's when I'll figure it out. I certainly can't figure it out as is. I'm dense, I don't know what to say.
