Oh, the member in question you are replying to brought up that political posts aren't allowed, so they could have banned it under that, but they went further and made a special exception in this case, not only that, but it was later discovered in the thread that they have a pussy hat forum which would be distinctly political in nature and it's a separate forum.

So Ravelry needs to take a giant whiff and small what they're shoveling.

Does the pussy hat forum attack others with hate filled posts?

Obviously. All us Trump supporters are white supremacists by their own statement. I'd call that hate filled since I'm not a white supremacist.

I know, but I just confirmed it because I knew the truth.

I don't like how politics is everywhere these days. Sports which is kind of my thing and now a knitting community. I bet there are plenty of people who would just like to see an NFL game or ask about knitting techniques, because of personal interest, and the need to get out of everyday worries and politics.

Bread and circus kind of loses it's purpose if they mix them with the distractions that the ruling elite has created by design.

A message to Ravelry seeking comment was not immediately returned on Sunday. In its blog post, Ravelry said it took cues from gaming website RPG.net when crafting its policy banning pro-Trump talk.

BY the rules you posted, politics are not allowed. Ergo, pussy hats shouldn't be allowed because of their political nature.

I don't know what is happening. I joined that forum a while ago and it was benign with politics. Something is afoot.

Inclusion is not political, it is social progress.

In other words, you think I am one?

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

If that's what you got from my chiding, then you are thick. I have never registered with any political party because I know better than to pledge my loyalty like that.

So If I can find one pussyhat poster that spews something hateful, should all pussyhats be banned?

Be who you want, do what you want, etc., etc., just as long as it's exactly like us. That's social inclusion and progress according to SJWs.

Heretics will be burned at the stake for daring to be different. But that's called hate today, isn't it?

No, hate is quite distinct to those that are receiving it.
