A few questions and concerns:
I can kind of understand this one, but I’m a bit confused on where Kaza draws the line.
The other day someone posted Rin wearing a Trump hat, and it was taken down and it seems the Kaza staff had a go at them, though I didn’t get to read their reasoning because it seems the relevant posts have been deleted. But way back, this was posted in Little Busters Memes:
One referenced a political figure and one is referencing a political position, but they’re both “real world political topics” and they’re both jokes. Under what standard was the other one taken down while this one is allowed? The “inflammatory” clause? So… we’re allowed to joke about some political ideas and not others? That seems awfully biased. Again, I didn’t get to read the Kazamatsuri staff’s reasoning, and maybe if I did I would agree with them, but that’s why I’m asking for clarification now.
@Pepe brought up something earlier but there doesn’t seem to have been any further discussion about it:
Under this policy, are we not allowed to talk about the “Make A Change” shirt? Again, I want to ask for clarification on that. The point has since been updated to
but it doesn’t really address this question.
And this is from the new Code of Conduct draft, but I may as well ask about it here:
A free and open marketplace of ideas is my ideal, but it’s obvious Kazamatsri doesn’t share it with me. But at the very least, can we try not to scare people away from speaking their minds out of fear of offending others? Context is what matters. At a time where society gets more angry at someone saying the N word while singing along to a rap than they do at the racist motherfucker who says “I strongly dislike black people”, the language we use should not be as important as the context we use it in. Only one of these hypothetical people used language most people take issue with, yet which one is hate speech? As the god among men, George Carlin, said:
And actually, am I gonna get in trouble just for sharing something with the N word in the title?
So, fair warning, if you’re sensitive to certain words regardless of context, you probably shouldn’t watch that.
