Also,
The posts you link are from several weeks before we started modding here.
Falsely accusing someone of being a racist with zero to support the false accusation isn't an "argument" it's argumentum ad hominem andI'm aware you weren't mod at the time but here's the thing- the previous mod didn't feel the need to delete it despite it not being very civil by your standards, even though civility according to your good self are "the ground rules" so I guess you're just more of an authoritarian mod, which is good to know, I'll be sure to watch my p's and q's around you.
That said maybe if posters weren't given free reign to falsely accuse others, then heated exchanges would be less frequent, just a thought.
