Just stop it. All'a you's. Enough is enough. If you think the two guys who got Banned were the only ones "under surveillance" then you're mistaken. Steps are being taken to bring this place back from only being a "political sh*tpost" board. Some of the people under consideration to be new Mods are of the "No Politics Allowed At All" persuasion so cheeky little shade comments are going out the window soon enough.

This place has evolved in the manner that it has. I hate to tell you this, but the best conversation about TMNT taking place on this entire forum tends to revolve around nothing more than toy releases from basically two companies nowadays.

I'm sure there'd be more TMNT posting content if there was more going into TMNT these days, but let's face it - the politics (which really isn't actually politics, but rather social-positioning) are inextricable from the hobby when the creators of most of the current content are social-extremists, dude. You can't even remotely take a "no politics allowed at all" position that wouldn't, ironically, result in a new hegemony of pure leftism on the boards, given the content of the material. It is what it is.

As for my comment? There's nothing cheeky about it. It is a 100% on-the-money response given the article that "disappeared". Actually, your comment about "conservatives" was cheekier. So check yourself, brother - and I'm not even remotely a conservative but I don't push back on them as hard given the reality of the societal output as of late.

Where can I read about the conservatives who supposedly want to do that?

Yeah. Pretty much exactly.

Yeah, I went to a private Christian school, and you can’t get more conservative than that. And we learned all about the Civil War. In fact, my history teacher, who is the most patriotic person I’ve met, would often say that slavery was one of the three most embarrassing parts of American history, the other two being segregation and the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

And what did I learn from my liberal college? That George Washington may have been a cannibalistic sexual predator and that the cherry tree is a symbol for his thirst for young blood.

Yeah, there seems to be a strange notion nowadays (usually by the same type of people who cheer on people pulling down statues) that if you don't like your kids being taught CRT (or even a stripped down, baseline version) in the classroom that can only mean that you don't want the Civil War or slavery taught in the classroom. It's pretty stupid thing to suggest and you should probably stop pretending that's the case if thats your bag.
