You don’t have nostalgia glasses on. You have a nostalgia blindfold on.

Mods on the “old forums” routinely deleted posts and banned users because they don’t like their opinion or hell even just as a “fuck why not it’s funny”.

Source: was a mod and active participant of such forums and saw it all the time. Did my fair share too.

I got a forum admin fired once for crap like that. Filed a BBB complaint.

This is true but I vastly prefer having my post arbitrarily deleted by a random mod than the current climate of ubiquitous narrative enforcement.
